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.

Prospera received a $750,000 Affordable Housing Program (AHP) subsidy in 2021 from Wells Fargo and FHLB Dallas to assist with the funding of the $16.5 million reconstruction project. The more than 40-year-old Weslaco, Texas, apartment complex will be expanded from 46 to 50 units and provide a full suite of upgrades for residents.

“This is a monumental day for this community and for affordable housing. Our long-time relationship with FHLB Dallas enables us to benefit communities through the AHP,” said Patty Parina, vice president and relationship manager at Wells Fargo.

The apartment complex will offer energy efficient, ADA compliant, one- to four-bedroom units. The exterior upgrades will include a new playground.

“Weslaco Village is in a great area for affordable housing with jobs, schools, stores, restaurants and parks nearby,” said Gilbert Piette, executive director of Prospera. “We’re excited to finally begin rebuilding it from the ground up to support families in need.”

AHP funds are intended to assist FHLB Dallas members in financing the purchase, construction and/or rehabilitation of owner-occupied, rental or transitional housing and housing for homeless individuals. The funds must be used to benefit households with incomes at or below 80 percent of the Area Median Income.

In 2022, FHLB Dallas awarded $17.2 million in AHP subsidies to 26 affordable housing projects. The subsidies will help create 2,022 new or rehabilitated housing units, including more than $7.5 million for 1,018 units in Texas.

“The AHP is fundamental in helping organizations provide high-quality affordable housing, and we are honored to work with Wells Fargo to provide critical funding for this project,” said Greg Hettrick, first vice president and director of Community Investment at FHLB Dallas. “We’re excited to see the impact this project will have in the Weslaco community.”
