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.

S&P Upgrades Cyxtera to B- on Strength of Interconnection and Improved Liquidity Position

S&P Rates Cyxtera DC Holdings B-, Assigning Same Credit Rating and Stable Outlook to Company’s New Parent, Cyxtera Technologies

Cyxtera (NASDAQ: CYXT), a global leader in data center colocation and interconnection services, today announced that Standard & Poor’s (“S&P”) upgraded the credit rating of Cyxtera DC Holdings, Inc. to B- and assigned a credit rating of B- with a stable outlook to its new parent company, Cyxtera Technologies, Inc. The upgrade and issuer credit rating are effective as of September 1, 2021.

This positive ratings action by S&P reflects the competitive strength of the company’s interconnection services, the company’s increased liquidity position following its merger with Starboard Value Acquisition Corp (SVAC), and the financial flexibility available to Cyxtera based on its capitalized leases. The company’s robust customer base, strategic focus on retail colocation, and ability to grow its bare metal offerings were also positive ratings factors.

“The upgraded rating of Cyxtera DC Holdings and the assignment of a B- credit rating of Cyxtera Technologies validate that Cyxtera’s focus on a highly connected global platform of retail colocation data centers positions the company to benefit from secular tailwinds,” said Carlos Sagasta, Cyxtera’s Chief Financial Officer. “The stable outlook underlying these ratings further substantiates that Cyxtera is well positioned to create long-term value for all of our key stakeholders.”
