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.

Citi Announces Agreement to Sell Consumer Bank in Bahrain to Ahli United Bank B.S.C.

Citi Continues to Execute on Global Consumer Exits

Transaction Marks Ninth Announced Sale by Citi in APAC/EMEA Regions Since Announcing Strategy Refresh

Citi Continues to Invest in Bahrain and Support Institutional Clients

Citi today announced that Ahli United Bank B.S.C. (AUB) has agreed to acquire Citi’s consumer banking business in Bahrain. The transaction, which is subject to regulatory approvals, includes the retail banking, credit card and unsecured lending businesses but excludes Citi’s institutional businesses. Citi remains committed to continuing to serve institutional clients in Bahrain locally, regionally and globally.

As per the agreement, Citi consumer employees and employees supporting the consumer business will be offered employment from AUB upon close of the proposed transaction.

Upon closing, Citi expects the transaction will make a small contribution to the previously announced release of approximately US$7 billion of allocated tangible common equity over time from the exit of its consumer franchises in 13 markets in Asia Pacific and Europe, Middle East and Africa.

“This is a positive outcome for our colleagues and our clients in Bahrain, and our top priority is to manage and support them through a seamless transition to AUB. We are proceeding with the same consideration for our remaining consumer exit markets,” said Titi Cole, CEO of Legacy Franchises at Citi.

Michel Sawaya, Citi Country Officer Bahrain, said, “We are very pleased to announce this transaction with AUB, a leading organization with a strong growth strategy in consumer banking in Bahrain. We are confident AUB will provide excellent opportunities for our customers and employees. For Citi, this transaction will enable additional investment in our strategic focus areas, including our institutional businesses in Bahrain.”

AUB was selected by Citi following a competitive auction process. Prior to the closing of the transaction, there will be no change in the services provided to Citi’s consumer banking and wealth customers in Bahrain. Closing of the proposed transaction, which is subject to customary regulatory conditions, is anticipated by the second half of 2022.
