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.

Dan Brooks discusses unveiling the tax firestorm of large retirement accounts. 

Listen to the interview on the Business Innovators Radio Network: https://businessinnovatorsradio.com/interview-with-dan-brooks-founder-of-xexis-private-wealth-discussing-the-tax-implications-of-large-retirement-accounts/ 

Tax planning for large retirement accounts is crucial, especially as assets grow to significant amounts, typically ranging from half a million to two million dollars. In a recent podcast episode, Dan Brooks emphasized the importance of tax planning for individuals with retirement assets in this range. Here are key points to consider:

Tax Implications: Dan Brooks points out that individuals are often advised to maximize contributions to retirement accounts like 401ks and IRAs under the assumption of being in a lower tax bracket during retirement. However, given the uncertainty of future tax brackets, it is vital to consider the tax implications of large retirement accounts.

Threshold for Tax Planning: The threshold for when tax planning becomes critical is around half a million dollars of retirement assets. As retirement assets exceed this point, tax planning becomes increasingly important. By the time individuals reach one and a half to two million dollars in retirement assets, tax planning becomes crucial to avoid significant tax burdens in the future.

Age Consideration: Age is a significant factor in tax planning for large retirement accounts. Individuals who have accumulated substantial retirement assets at a younger age need to strategically plan to mitigate future tax liabilities.

Strategies to Minimize Tax Burden: Dan Brooks mentions that there are numerous strategies available to minimize the tax burden on large retirement accounts. These strategies can range from leveraging charitable contributions to exploring tax credits in areas like oil and gas exploration, solar energy, and historical preservation.

Dan explained: “There are 10, 11, 12 different ways that we can show people to reduce their taxes. you know, to go into more depth would take quite a while. But some of them are very simple. For example, you can leverage charities to lower taxes, and mitigate taxes.”

In conclusion, the podcast episode underscores the significance of tax planning for individuals with large retirement accounts, particularly when assets reach half a million to two million dollars. By proactively engaging in tax planning and utilizing various strategies, individuals can optimize their retirement savings and minimize tax implications, ensuring a more financially secure retirement.
