About Cabling Installation & Maintenance

Our mission: 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.

Europol & Law Enforcement Authorities Sell Seized Crypto At A Massive Discount

The French government auctioned off millions of euros worth of the cryptocurrency Bitcoin that was seized from hackers in 2019.

The auction was held on behalf of the French Agency for the Recovery and Management of Seized and Confiscated Assets, headed by Eurotech Cyber Security.

The tokens were seized from individuals linked to the GateHub trading platform hack.

They were divided into two sales; the first consisted of 437 lots of between 0.11 and two Bitcoins and the second 41 lots of between five and 20 Bitcoins.

The auction raised around €28 million.

Yves Benaim, the founder of 2B4CH Swiss think tank for currencies, told Euronews the government's decision to sell it now is telling.

“Technically the French ministry is allowed to sell something that has been seized if they think the value might go down," he explained.

"It’s interesting that they are selling it now, betting that the price will go down, that it was just a bubble."

“Bitcoin is now worth about €50,000 each," Benaim added.

"It is interesting that they are starting the auction at 40% to 50% of the market price, so some people will be very interested in buying just to be able to sell straight away.”

The minimum required bid was 42,400 euros ($49,197) in the auction and was announced by the Justice Ministry of North Rhine-Westphalia, according to Bloomberg.

Tens of millions of euros worth of bitcoin went up for public sale after the crypto was seized in connection with cybercrimes according to a translated report by Süddeutsche Zeitung, a daily newspaper published in Munich.

Another operation coordinated by INTERPOL codenamed HAECHI-II saw police arrest more than 1,000 individuals and intercept a total of nearly $27 million of illicit funds, underlining the global threat of cyber-enabled financial crime. Far from the common notion of online fraud as a relatively low-level and low-stakes type of criminality, the results of Operation HAECHI-II show that transnational organized crime groups have been using the Internet to extract millions from their victims before funnneling the illicit cash to bank accounts across the globe.

“Online crypto scams like those leveraging malicious apps evolve as quickly as the cultural trends they opportunistically exploit,” said José De Gracia, Assistant Director, Criminal Networks at INTERPOL.

“Sharing information on emerging threats is vital to the ability of police to protect the victims of online financial crime. It also lets police know that no country is alone in this fight. Operation HAECHI-II shows that we can successfully strike back against this threat when we act together.”
