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.

State Street Announces Expansion of Direct Access Lending

Product will now include Convertible Bond Arbitrage Strategies

State Street Corporation (NYSE: STT) today announced it has expanded upon its market leading peer-to-peer securities finance product, Direct Access Lending -- which enables direct, principal loans between its lending clients and its borrowing clients – to now allow borrowers to post US convertible bonds as collateral to facilitate new clients and strategies entering the program. The managed peer-to-peer product has grown substantially since product launch in Q4 2019 adding both new lending clients and borrowing clients to the US equity security lending program and steadily increasing on-loan balances.

“Direct Access Lending has helped us continue to differentiate from our competitors by providing our clients the cost benefits of a peer borrowing model with the operational efficiencies received from a prime broker,” said Martin Tell, global head of Securities Finance. “In addition, providing our clients a peer option within their Enhanced Custody program ensures stability as a trusted financing counterparty. The feedback from our customers has been very strong with the rollout of Direct Access Lending, and we’re seeking to build upon the success we’ve had with this expansion.”

To facilitate the new collateral type in Direct Access Lending, State Street will leverage both its Agency Lending and Enhanced Custody programs, each of which already accept US convertible bonds as collateral, to offer both sets of customers the benefits of each program required to operate in a peer-to-peer transaction while also enjoying an economic benefit associated with Direct Access loans. The same operational support provided today for equity-for-equity loans in Direct Access Lending will be offered to customers engaged in equity-for-convertible bond loans to allow an increased economic opportunity for State Street clients without an increase in operational risk or burden.

“We expect significant uptake from both existing and prospective clients and are excited to continue building product capabilities into our best in class peer-to-peer program,” added John McGuire, State Street’s global head of Business Development for Securities Finance.

State Street’s Global Markets team provides specialized research, trading, securities finance and innovative portfolio strategies to owners and managers of institutional assets. Its goal is to enhance and preserve portfolio values for clients through original flow-based research, proprietary portfolio and risk management technologies that optimize trading.
