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.

Walton Street Launches Core Debt Platform

Walton Street Capital, L.L.C. recently launched a core debt platform to target floating-rate and fixed rate loans secured by stabilized, income-generating assets in major U.S. markets. The platform is seeking to close over $400 million of pipeline loans through the end of the year and expects to have lending capacity in excess of $1 billion by mid-2022.

The core debt platform will focus on lower risk, lower coupon loans than those pursued by Walton Street Real Estate Debt Fund II (“WSREDII”), a Walton Street closed-end fund that targets shorter-term, floating rate loans secured by more transitional and/or less stabilized assets. WSREDII held its final closing with total capital commitments of $1.52 billion, surpassing its target of $1.25 billion.

“Our investment team continues to source attractive lower risk, lower yielding opportunities from our borrower network that do not fit the target investment parameters for WSREDII,” said Richard Ratke, Managing Principal at Walton Street. “The core debt platform satisfies a capital void in our origination strategy and enables our team to immediately capitalize on a broader range of credit opportunities.”

Since inception, Walton Street has invested in over $10 billion of debt opportunities over multiple cycles. “We expect to scale the core debt platform over time and meaningfully grow lending capacity in the coming years,” said Ratke.

About Walton Street Capital, L.L.C.: Walton Street is a private equity real estate investment firm that, since its inception in 1994 through its affiliates, has raised over $14 billion of capital commitments from a broad cross-section of sophisticated institutional investors. Walton Street’s principals have collectively acquired, financed, managed, and sold over $50 billion of real estate and have an average of 21 years of real estate industry experience.
