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.

Home Bank and FHLB Dallas to Help Fund Revival of Historic Louisiana Property

Banks Provide a $750K Subsidy to Transform Franklin Foundation Hospital into Senior Living

Home Bank and the Federal Home Loan Bank of Dallas (FHLB Dallas) awarded a $750,000 Affordable Housing Program (AHP) subsidy to New Orleans Restoration Properties to help renovate the former Franklin Foundation Hospital into a $25.7 million affordable senior living community in Franklin, Louisiana.

The vacant hospital property was built in the early 1950s and was expanded in 1966 and again in 1985. It occupies 7.5 acres on a large, tree-shaded block. The interior hasn’t been altered since the hospital closed more than 10 years ago and includes original details such as hardwood floors and wainscotting.

New Orleans Restoration Properties will honor the building’s mid-century design in its renovation and said the property will be eligible for the National Register of Historic Places. Once complete, the property will have 60 rental units for older adults. It will be renovated under Enterprise Green Communities’ national green building program of sustainable and healthy building practices for the affordable housing sector.

“The AHP provides important initial funding to move this project forward,” said Marseah Delatte, managing member of New Orleans Restoration Properties. “Senior housing provides financial freedom for one of society’s vulnerable populations and supports independence and security that far too many families simply can't achieve on their own income, without a helping hand.”

Kelvin Luster, Home Bank senior vice president and community development director, said the restoration of a historically significant property adds interest to the project.

“I can’t wait to see what they accomplish with Franklin Foundation Hospital,” Mr. Luster said. “It’s a win-win for the community in that they’ll preserve history while also providing much-needed affordable housing.”

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 median income for the area.

In 2021, FHLB Dallas awarded $18.5 million in subsidies to 26 affordable housing projects. The subsidies will help create 2,113 new or rehabilitated housing units, including $3 million for 323 units in Louisiana.

Between 1990 and 2021, FHLB Dallas awarded $344.6 million in AHP and Homeownership Set-Aside Programs and assisted nearly 60,000 households.

Greg Hettrick, first vice president and director of Community Investment at FHLB Dallas, said Home Bank is a strong proponent of affordable housing.

“Home Bank’s use of the AHP over the course of many years has made a sizable impact on the access to affordable housing in the communities it serves,” Mr. Hettrick said. “We commend Home Bank for that commitment.”
