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.

The Rise Of 0DTE Options and Cboe's Strategic Approach To Serving Today's More Sophisticated Retail Trader

Maximize your market potential with Cboe's 0DTE options - the ultimate tool for day-to-day trading precision.

CHICAGO, IL / ACCESSWIRE / February 28, 2024 / 0DTE (zero days to expiry) options are increasingly popular options contracts known for expiring at the end of the trading day, and they have transformed the landscape of short-term trading. These instruments enable traders to leverage short-term price movements, respond swiftly to news events and adjust market positions with greater precision. With higher trading volumes, tight bid-ask spreads and lower costs for short-term volatility trading, 0DTE options are quickly growing into a staple for traders.

From Meme Stocks To Sophisticated Hedging

Initially popularized among retail traders during the speculative meme-stock frenzy of 2021, 0DTE options have evolved into savvy tools for hedging market risks. This shift reflects the growing sophistication of retail investors, aided by zero-commission trading, advanced tools and an abundance of educational resources. Unlike past market phenomena like 2018's "Volmageddon" which involved leveraged, directional bets, 0DTE trades are short-lived and reset daily, offering a more sustainable approach to managing market exposure. Amidst a backdrop of looming economic and geopolitical risks, 0DTE options serve as a vital component of nuanced hedging strategies, helping traders navigate today's complex financial landscape with a higher degree of flexibility.

Cboe's Role In 0DTE Options Evolution

Cboe Global Markets Inc.'s (BATS:CBOE) focus on innovation has been key to the evolution of options trading, moving from quarterly expirations in 1973 to weekly expirations in 2005 and eventually to options that expire every weekday by 2022. This innovation has significantly increased trading opportunities, with 0DTE SPX options trading accounting for about 43% of average daily volume in 2023. This growth underscores both the market's appetite for same-day trading options and Cboe's capacity to meet those needs, driven by growing demand for flexibility and day-to-day precision in trading strategies.

Catering To Retail Traders With 0DTE Options

Cboe's foray into 0DTE options has been notably aligned with the interests of retail traders, who represent a substantial and growing segment of the market. Contrary to initial estimates by academics and major firms, retail investors account for 30% to 40% of the volume in 0DTE contracts according to Cboe. This significant participation highlights the complexity of distinguishing between retail and professional traders and underscores the evolving sophistication of retail traders who are now employing complex trading strategies previously restricted largely to professionals.

Historically, the options market has been dominated by financial professionals like hedge funds or other major institutions, but the democratization of financial instruments and more informed retail investors have changed the market. 0DTE options offer retail traders the benefits of high liquidity, enabling quick adjustments to positions, as well as the opportunity to engage in various advanced trading strategies such as iron condors, selling call or put spreads and buying outright naked calls and/or puts for speculation or hedging. Overall, these strategies allow for tactical trading around market events and calculated hedging of longer-dated positions, providing a means to manage risk without overnight exposure.

A New Era In Trading?

Cboe's strategic expansion into 0DTE options trading marks another pivotal shift in meeting the evolving needs of retail traders. By providing sophisticated, accessible trading solutions, Cboe is empowering retail traders with the tools needed to effectively navigate the fast-paced world of short-term trading. This development not only demonstrates Cboe's commitment to innovation and retail trader empowerment but also reinforces its position as a disruptor in the global financial markets. In an environment shaped by rapid changes and the demand for tactical trading capabilities, Cboe's 0DTE options are a key offering for traders looking to capitalize on short-term market opportunities.
