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.

Woodforest National Bank and FHLB Dallas Award Over $250K in Disaster Aid

Recipients Suffered Damages in the Texas Ice Storm or Hurricane Harvey

When February’s ice storm caused unprecedented power outages throughout much of Texas, Yeneka Younger shivered in an unheated Dallas, Texas, home for days.

But that wasn’t the worst of it. The freezing temperatures caused pipes to burst in her kitchen resulting in extensive water damage to her cabinets and flooring, she said.

Woodforest National Bank® (Woodforest), a member of the Federal Home Loan Bank of Dallas (FHLB Dallas), teamed up with FHLB Dallas to disburse more than $250,000 in Disaster Rebuilding Assistance to 28 homeowners in Houston, Dallas and Refugio, Texas, who are still rebuilding from 2017’s Hurricane Harvey, and to provide support to the 2021 ice-storm victims across Texas.

Ms. Younger, one of the recipients, referred to Woodforest by community partner Southern Dallas Progress Community Development Corp. (CDC), received an $8,365 Disaster Rebuilding Assistance subsidy from Woodforest and FHLB Dallas to repair her kitchen.

“I would like to thank Woodforest and FHLB Dallas for helping me and my family during our time of need due to the winter storm. This program helped me regain my life back by fixing my kitchen. I don't know where I would be without their help. They were the steppingstone I needed,” Ms. Younger said.

Disaster Rebuilding Assistance provides funds for the repair and restoration of owner-occupied housing affected by a federally declared disaster within FHLB Dallas’ five-state District.

“When a natural disaster strikes, like what happened with the Texas power outages, homeowners can be taken by surprise with unexpected and costly repairs,” said Woodforest Community Development Relationship Manager for Dallas, Krystian Reyes.

“The Disaster Rebuilding Assistance program provides a lifeline for homeowners impacted by natural disasters,” Mr. Reyes said. “We are grateful for the work of the Southern Dallas CDC and pleased to be able to join with FHLB Dallas to give Ms. Younger and all our recipients the peace of mind that comes with putting these repairs behind them.”

FHLB Dallas set aside $500,000 for Disaster Rebuilding Assistance in 2021 and in August, it added another $250,000 due to significant demand. After Hurricane Ida it set aside an additional $500,000.

The funds are disbursed through member institutions like Woodforest on a first-come, first-served basis, one homeowner at a time. To learn more about FHLB Dallas disaster assistance, go to fhlb.com/disaster.

“Providing relief and recovery assistance after a disaster is an area where FHLB Dallas members excel,” said Greg Hettrick, first vice president and director of Community Investment at FHLB Dallas. “Our members put their communities first, and we commend Woodforest for assisting victims of the Texas ice storm and Hurricane Harvey. They are making a positive impact.”
