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.

Jonathan Leonard, Founder of Leonard Financial Solutions, Interviewed on the Influential Entrepreneurs Podcast Discussing Longevity Risk

Jonathan Leonard discusses navigating risk and longevity in retirement planning.

Listen to the interview on the Business Innovators Radio Network: https://businessinnovatorsradio.com/interview-with-jonathan-leonard-founder-of-leonard-financial-solutions-discussing-longevity-risk/ 

The importance of comprehensive retirement planning is ensuring individuals have enough money to sustain themselves throughout their retirement years. Jonathan Leonard highlights the significance of long-term considerations, such as potential health deterioration and increased care needs as individuals age. The episode introduces the concept of “go years” and “slow years” in retirement planning, where individuals tend to be more active and engaged in their 60s and early 70s but may experience reduced mobility and travel less in their late 70s and 80s.

Furthermore, the episode delves into the average rate of return in markets, typically ranging from 6% to 8%. This information is used to construct retirement plans that can withstand market fluctuations. Jonathan Leonard addresses the fear of running out of money in retirement and assures listeners that the principles discussed in the episode can alleviate this concern. Long-term care planning is also emphasized, as unexpected care needs can significantly impact retirement finances. Lastly, Jonathan underscores the current life expectancy in the United States, which is around 79 years old, underscoring the need for retirement plans that accommodate potentially longer lifespans.

Jonathan Leonard recommends a two-bucket strategy for retirement planning. This approach involves dividing assets into two categories: a growth bucket and a protected bucket. The growth bucket is subject to market fluctuations, while the protected bucket primarily serves income purposes and is shielded from losses.

The purpose of this two-bucket approach is to mitigate risks and ensure shared assets between spouses. By having a protected bucket for income needs, couples can rely on a steady stream of income without worrying about market fluctuations. This provides a sense of security and helps guarantee financial stability throughout retirement.

Additionally, Jonathan emphasizes that when planning for a married couple, the strategy is designed to benefit both spouses. Plans are created to consider the needs and goals of each individual. By accounting for the lifespan and longevity of each spouse, the two-bucket strategy can be adjusted accordingly to ensure both individuals are financially secure throughout their retirement years.

Jonathan explained: “I work with retirees and pre-retirees and specialize in the retirement planning process for them.”
