About Cabling Installation & Maintenance:

Bringing practical business and technical intelligence to today's structured cabling professionals.

For more than 30 years, Cabling Installation & Maintenance has provided useful, practical information to professionals responsible for the specification, design, installation and management of structured cabling systems serving enterprise, data center and other environments. These professionals are challenged to stay informed of constantly evolving standards, system-design and installation approaches, product and system capabilities, technologies, as well as applications that rely on high-performance structured cabling systems. Our editors synthesize these complex issues into multiple information products. This portfolio of information products provides concrete detail that improves the efficiency of day-to-day operations, and equips cabling professionals with the perspective that enables strategic planning for networks’ optimum long-term performance.

Throughout our annual magazine, weekly email newsletters and 24/7/365 website, Cabling Installation & Maintenance digs into the essential topics our audience focuses on:

  • Design, Installation and Testing: We explain the bottom-up design of cabling systems, from case histories of actual projects to solutions for specific problems or aspects of the design process. We also look at specific installations using a case-history approach to highlight challenging problems, solutions and unique features. Additionally, we examine evolving test-and-measurement technologies and techniques designed to address the standards-governed and practical-use performance requirements of cabling systems.
  • Technology: We evaluate product innovations and technology trends as they impact a particular product class through interviews with manufacturers, installers and users, as well as contributed articles from subject-matter experts.
  • Data Center: Cabling Installation & Maintenance takes an in-depth look at design and installation workmanship issues as well as the unique technology being deployed specifically for data centers.
  • Physical Security: Focusing on the areas in which security and IT—and the infrastructure for both—interlock and overlap, we pay specific attention to Internet Protocol’s influence over the development of security applications.
  • Standards: Tracking the activities of North American and international standards-making organizations, we provide updates on specifications that are in-progress, looking forward to how they will affect cabling-system design and installation. We also produce articles explaining the practical aspects of designing and installing cabling systems in accordance with the specifications of established standards.

Disney updating features of line-skipping passes

By: FOX Business
Disney is changing the names of its line-skipping passes and how they work at its Florida theme parks in late July, the entertainment giant announced on Tuesday.

Disney is changing the names of its line-skipping passes and how they work at its Florida theme parks in late July.

Genie+ will rebrand to "Lightning Lane Multi Pass" beginning July 24, Disney said Tuesday. At the same time, the entertainment giant will start referring to its individual Lightning Lane entry as "Lightning Lane Single Pass."

The updated passes will "blend features from our current services and the previously offered FastPass+ Service, giving guests the choice to plan ahead and removing the hassle of planning during their vacation" in Florida, according to Disney’s blog post.

Disney said it sought to alter the two services after guests told the company they "would prefer to have the option to do more of their planning before their theme park day."

DISNEY SPENDING: NEARLY 50% OF PARENTS WITH YOUNG CHILDREN TAKE ON DEBT FOR THEME PARK TRIP

With both updated pass types, Disney Resort hotel guests will have the ability to book attractions a maximum of seven days in advance for their whole trip provided it’s shorter than two weeks long, the entertainment giant said. The capability applies to guests at certain other hotels too.

The advance purchase window will be three days for Disney World visitors not staying at eligible hotels.

Disney said the Lightning Lane Multi Pass allows Disney World visitors to pick three attractions and view timeslots ahead of time. Attractions like Space Mountain, Haunted Mansion, Mission: SPACE and Rock ‘n’ Roller Coaster Starring Aerosmith, according to the company.

The Lightning Lane Single Passes will similarly show time slots before purchases. Examples of attractions the single passes can be used for include TRON Lightcycle, Star Wars: Rise of the Resistance and Avatar Flight of Passage.

Disney said it will not roll out all the updates to its California theme park, Disneyland.

The ways Disneyland customers "purchase, select and redeem Lightning Lane passes" there will "remain the same" as they are now, Disney said.

Disney’s parks and experiences are a major revenue driver for the company.

Its domestic parks and experiences, which Disney World and Disneyland fall under, brought in nearly $5.96 billion in revenue for the second quarter. Quarterly operating income for domestic parks and experiences was $1.6 billion.

For international parks and experiences, Disney saw $1.52 billion in revenue and $292 million in operating income for the same three month period.

CEO Bob Iger said in May the company was "focused on turbocharging growth with a number of long-term strategic investments" for its experiences division.
