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.

Louisiana Native Receives Hurricane Recovery Help

Origin Bank and FHLB Dallas Provide Disaster Rebuilding Assistance Funds

Brenda Collins has lived in Monroe, Louisiana, her entire life and has enjoyed every second of it. But, she had a tough time after the 2020 hurricanes destroyed her roof.

Origin Bank and the Federal Home Loan Bank of Dallas (FHLB Dallas) partnered to assist Ms. Collins by providing a $10,000 Disaster Rebuilding Assistance subsidy to make critical repairs to her roof.

“I would be putting out buckets every time it rained to keep water from flowing into my house,” said Ms. Collins. “If I had not received this funding, I would still be saving up for the repairs. Nobody knows how much I needed this, and it has just been the biggest blessing.”

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.

Even repairing part of the damage can enhance a homeowner’s quality of life, said Shelia Grayson, vice president, CRA and community development officer, at Origin Bank.

“After working with Ms. Collins, I have seen the positive affect the Disaster Rebuilding Assistance has on homeowners,” Ms. Grayson said. “Even repairing just part of the problem can lift a huge weight off their shoulders, and I’m so glad we can play a role in the impact these repairs have had on Ms. Collins.”

FHLB Dallas set aside $500,000 for Disaster Rebuilding Assistance in 2021. The funds are disbursed through member institutions like Origin Bank on a first-come, first-served basis, one homeowner at a time.

Helping members support their community’s recovery after any natural disaster in the area was just the right thing to do, said Greg Hettrick, first vice president and director of Community Investment at FHLB Dallas.

“Our members come first at FHLB Dallas, so what is important to them is also important to us,” said Mr. Hettrick. “We heard first-hand accounts from our community bankers of the devastation Louisiana experienced last year, and we wanted to set aside money to help homeowners and community organizations involved in the recovery efforts.”
