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.

Wolters Kluwer CT Corporation podcast explores popularity of holding company structure

New CT Expert Insights Podcast discusses how to maintain critical asset and liability protections

The economic uncertainty wrought by the COVID-19 pandemic has made it more daunting than ever for companies to risk venturing into new business segments. But by structuring itself as a holding company a business entity can help protect itself and its assets from the financial aftermath of a failed venture or legal action. If those same assets are not carefully arranged throughout the larger enterprise, however, the protection a business enjoys can quickly disappear. That’s according to a new episode of Wolters Kluwer CT Corporation’s recently launched CT Expert Insights Podcast.

Sandra Feldman, Publications Attorney at CT Corporation, explains that the popularity of the holding/operating company structure is largely owed to the degrees of separation it provides. So long as a holding company keeps its subsidiaries’ assets isolated from both itself and one another, the fallout of a potential business downturn or legal action remains limited. Feldman uses the hypothetical example of a holding organization that owns two operating companies during the podcast – one a successful manufacturer of widgets and the other a restaurant that is struggling financially due to the pandemic.

“Let’s say the restaurant had to close for a while because of COVID-19 and it ran up debts it’s having trouble paying. The restaurant’s creditors can only look to the assets of the operating company that owns the restaurant to satisfy the debt,” Feldman notes.

With that protection firmly in place, holding companies can invest in new startups or markets without incurring risk to their core businesses. Still, the more operating companies that a holding company owns, the more complex its corporate structure and regulatory obligations will become. For instance, holding and operating companies are subject not only to initial formation fees, but annual compliance costs as well.

Feldman noted that many large holding companies invest in an entity management system to help govern the enterprise. She also urged businesses considering a holding/operating company structure to consult with legal experts who can assist them in weighing their unique set of pros and cons.

“And if they decide to go ahead, CT Corporation is a trusted partner that can help form the holding company and operating companies and also assist with various post formation and compliance needs,” Feldman adds.
