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.

New Report: The Top 5 Places Seniors Have Hidden Unclaimed Property

New Report: The Top 5 Places Seniors Have Hidden Unclaimed Property
Unclaimed Property for Seniors: A New Report From Beca Life Settlements
Recovering even one of these hidden assets could cover prescriptions, travel, or a grandchild’s college savings.

Many seniors sit on lost money they could reclaim right now by finding their unclaimed property. These five overlooked assets often hold more value than you might think. Recovering them can provide an income boost, and doing so doesn’t have to be hard.

1. Life Settlement

A life settlement converts a no-longer-needed policy into cash. A buyer will pay you more money than if you surrendered the policy to your life insurance company, and the proceeds are often tax-advantaged, making it a great way to fund home repairs or medical care. You generally need to be age 65 or older with a policy face value of at least $100,000. Make sure you get several quotes before accepting one because it’s like selling a house—you wouldn’t take the first offer a buyer gives you. Let buyers compete for your policy. More info here.

2. Unclaimed Property

States safeguard unclaimed property such as dormant bank accounts, uncashed dividends, and the forgotten contents of safe-deposit boxes. They also hold unclaimed funds from utility deposits and rebate checks. You can find unclaimed money through a free unclaimed money search by Social Security Number on MissingMoney.com.

I’ve tried missingmoney.com for a Florida relative and it worked well. You may wonder “is missingmoney.com legit?” Yes, it is. MissingMoney.com is from the National Association of Unclaimed Property Administrators (NAUPA). You may also want to check other sites for your state with searches like “California unclaimed property” and “Florida unclaimed property.”

3. Reverse Mortgage

Your home equity can become income through a reverse mortgage, which you can receive a line of credit, steady checks, or one lump sum. I've found clear guidance from HUD counselors, and their advice is free. Eligibility starts at age 62 and the home must be your primary residence. It’s definitely worth a look.

4. Forgotten Pensions

Job changes scatter your retirement benefits in different places, so look for old 401k balances and pension promises via the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation and Department of Labor databases or the National Registry of Unclaimed Retirement Benefits. Finding old 401(k)s and rolling them into an IRA simplifies taxes and your investment choices.

5. Annuities

Seniors may have forgotten annuities purchased years ago through employers or insurance agents. These contracts can be overlooked when companies merge, change names, or if paperwork was misplaced, potentially leaving valuable retirement income unclaimed.

Key Takeaways

The top five hidden places seniors have unclaimed property are their own life insurance policies (getting a life settlement), unclaimed property, reverse mortgages, forgotten pensions, and old life insurance policies.

Recovering even one of these hidden assets could cover prescriptions, travel, or a grandchild’s college savings.
