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.

KREST Grows Multifamily Portfolio with Acquisitions in Brooklyn and Philadelphia

By: via Business Wire

KKR, a leading global investment firm, today announced that KKR Real Estate Select Trust Inc. (“KREST” or the “Fund”) has completed the purchases of two Class A multifamily properties with a combined 1,380 units from different sellers in separate transactions. The latest additions to KREST’s portfolio include a full-service, LEED Silver multifamily property located in Downtown Brooklyn and a highly amenitized multi-building asset located on the border of the Main Line and West Philadelphia.

“We continue to see long-term trends supporting demand for lifestyle-oriented real estate near city centers,” said Daniel Rudin, Managing Director on KKR’s real estate equity team. “Both of these assets are well-located from a live/work perspective and are ideal for younger working professionals seeking quality lifestyle-oriented housing with easy access to major cities.”

The Downtown Brooklyn asset is a trophy, 2011 vintage, full-service residential property with modern finishes and amenities, including an outdoor terrace, fitness center, 24-hour doorman, and a children’s playroom. The property is comprised of 365 rental units positioned in one of the top-performing Brooklyn submarkets, within walking distance of several public transportation stations, servicing all of Manhattan’s critical transportation lines.

The Philadelphia asset, purchased alongside Mack Real Estate Group (MREG), is an integrated five building complex comprising 1,015 units. Located on the border of Lower Merion Township in the Main Line and West Philadelphia, the property provides easy access to Center City and to numerous nearby universities and hospitals. Gut-renovated in 2015, the property offers best-in-class amenities, including a pool club, lounge, fitness center, and dog park. Mack Property Management, L.P., a wholly-owned subsidiary of MREG, will handle property operations. The transaction is KKR’s second Philadelphia multifamily acquisition with MREG.

“We are pleased to grow KREST’s exposure to income-generating residential properties with these two investments. KREST acquired both properties using irreplaceable long-duration fixed-rate financing, which creates compelling cash yields,” said Billy Butcher, Chief Executive Officer of KREST and Chief Operating Officer of KKR’s global real estate business. “We continue to add high-quality properties to our growing portfolio of multifamily assets and believe these properties offer attractive value to a wide range of residents.”

The acquisitions are part of KREST’s stabilized real estate investment strategy, one of the Fund’s three primary investment strategies, which focuses on thematically-driven, income-generating real estate in high growth markets, including well-leased multifamily. KREST’s other focus areas include prime single tenant real estate and private real estate debt.
