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.

Austin Winch Launches Xauras: Governance-Driven DeFi Protocol Achieves $90M TVL

London-based founder Austin Winch introduces Xauras, a next-generation decentralized lending platform emphasizing security, transparency, and community governance.

LONDON, UK / ACCESS Newswire / September 13, 2025 / The decentralized finance (DeFi) landscape welcomes a new entrant as Austin Winch, the visionary founder from London, unveils Xauras, a governance-first lending protocol designed to address the limitations of existing DeFi platforms. Within weeks of its launch, Xauras has already surpassed $90 million in total value locked (TVL) and engaged more than 12,000 unique wallets, demonstrating robust adoption and growing investor confidence.

Xauras positions itself as a third-generation DeFi protocol, focusing on the challenges that have hindered traditional lending platforms, including governance inefficiencies, limited scalability, and security risks. By employing non-custodial smart contracts, the platform enables users to deposit assets into liquidity pools and borrow against overcollateralized positions. Dynamic interest rates and automated liquidation mechanisms ensure liquidity stability and protect investors.

Central to Xauras' innovation is its governance-first model. Token holders are empowered to propose and vote on upgrades, risk parameters, and economic frameworks, creating a platform that evolves through community-driven decision-making rather than centralized control. This approach ensures transparency, accountability, and long-term sustainability.

"DeFi has tremendous potential, but persistent governance and security gaps limit its growth," said Austin Winch, Founder of Xauras. "Xauras is designed to provide a modular, resilient, and transparent solution that caters to both retail and institutional participants. The rapid adoption reflects the market's readiness for a governance-led alternative."

Currently live on Ethereum and Arbitrum, Xauras plans to expand to Polygon, Optimism, and Solana in Q4 2025 to reduce transaction fees and enhance cross-chain scalability. Upcoming features include NFT-backed loans, real-world asset collateralization, cross-chain yield aggregation, and a mobile-native decentralized application to broaden user accessibility.

By combining strong adoption metrics, secure infrastructure, and governance-driven design, Austin Winch's Xauras is positioned as a prominent player in the next wave of DeFi lending solutions.

Founded in London by Austin Winch, Xauras is a governance-first decentralized finance protocol focused on providing secure, transparent, and scalable lending solutions. The platform empowers retail and institutional users with community-driven governance and cutting-edge DeFi infrastructure.
