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.

De Shaw And Fedex Announce The Appointment Of Three New Members To Its Board After The Shipping Business Double Its Dividend

A deal between activist investor DE Shaw and FedEx (FDX +12.43%) saw the shipping business double its dividend and announce the appointment of three new members to its board.

Currently, FedEx stock is up 8.8 percent to $218.66, while the S&P 500 SPX +0.18 percent futures are up 0.5 percentage points and the Dow Jones Industrial AverageDJIA +0.23 percent futures are up 0.3 percentage points.

FedEx has announced a 53 percent increase in its quarterly dividend to $1.15, from $0.70. As of June 27, investors who held shares of the company will receive a dividend of $0.10 per share on July 11. The stock now yields 2.1 percent.

With the help of DE Shaw, the corporation hired three new directors and said it would concentrate on shareholder returns and link executive remuneration to those results.

Jack Atkins of Stephens says, “Investors have speculated for years about an activist at FDX, without one materializing.” At this point, we believe that FDX has a brighter future thanks to a new management team and new board members, including an experienced operator like Mr. Vena.

FedEx’s shares have fallen 22% in 2022, making it a rough year for the company. Investors were urged to purchase the stock by Barron’s Andrew Bary in April because it was “a cheap bet on stronger margins, better profitability, and bigger free cash flow,” he said at the time. Since then, shares have fallen 1.1 percent, but have outpaced the S&P 500 index by 13.5 percentage points.
