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.

Housing Repair Program Helps Louisiana Woman with New Windows

Ms. Walker, 68, said her New Iberia, Louisiana, home, built in 1966, was drafty. Wood trim around the windows had deteriorated over the years, allowing in moisture. The SNAP subsidy paid for new windows, window trim, insulation and touch-up paint.

Ms. Walker learned about the program when she saw another home repaired on her street and found out that SNAP funds were used to pay for the work. She inquired about the program and applied through her bank, Hancock Whitney.

“I’m just thankful that I got chosen, and that I was able to get my windows replaced,” Ms. Walker said.

Through member institutions such as Hancock Whitney, SNAP provides subsidies for the repair and rehabilitation of owner-occupied housing of eligible, special-needs individuals. The maximum SNAP award per household is $6,000 unless the member or another lender contributes $350 toward the rehabilitation costs and/or inspection fees. Then the maximum award per household is $7,000.

Hancock Whitney Assistant Vice President and Community Development Officer LaCarsha Babers said FHLB Dallas’ SNAP funding has made an impact.

“We’ve used SNAP funding for more than a decade and have witnessed firsthand the good works it has accomplished for homeowners in multiple communities we serve,” she said.

FHLB Dallas set aside $2.5 million of its 2021 Affordable Housing Program funds for SNAP, and all SNAP funds were allocated in January for the highly sought-after program. Last year, FHLB Dallas awarded $2.5 million in SNAP subsidies that assisted 421 families. Since the program’s 2009 inception, nearly $20.5 million in funding has been awarded across FHLB Dallas’ five-state District.

“This program is popular with our members because it reaches homeowners who have special needs such as disabilities, health issues or who are older residents, generally on fixed incomes,” said Greg Hettrick, first vice president and director of Community Investment at FHLB Dallas. “Hancock Whitney has been committed to tapping into SNAP for the betterment of their communities, and we think that’s a great mindset.”
