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.

Rubicon Point Partners Acquires The Townsend Building in San Francisco

By: via Business Wire

- 137,000 square foot brick and timber building is anchored by investment-grade tenant and features convenient access to transit and amenities

- Represents Rubicon Point’s 29th commercial real estate investment

Rubicon Point Partners (“Rubicon”), a woman- and minority-owned private real estate investment and operating company, today announced that it has acquired The Townsend Building, a six-story, transit-oriented, brick and timber building located at 123 Townsend Street in San Francisco.

The acquisition of The Townsend Building is part of Rubicon’s strategy to invest in high-quality properties on the West Coast. Rubicon approaches its investment decisions through the lens of proprietary data, analytics and AI applications that measure factors such as traffic and return-to-office metrics to help identify the best opportunities. As a woman- and minority-owned business dedicated to diversity, equity and inclusion, Rubicon also integrates measurable environmental, social, and governance programs into every aspect of its company and property operations.

“Our acquisition of The Townsend Building demonstrates our ability to not only identify a strong asset, but to add value to the transaction through thoughtful structuring,” said Ani Vartanian, Co-Managing Partner of Rubicon. “This acquisition gives our investors access to a bond-like structure backed by investment grade tenancy while also owning an iconic asset: a new way of evaluating real estate investments. Our investors look for us to be a smart, flexible and creative partner when investing in real estate, and we are optimistic that there are many other potential opportunities to apply this framework in our target markets.”

“In spite of recent headlines, we are great believers in the resilience of San Francisco and the Bay Area,” said Razmig Boladian, Co-Managing Partner of Rubicon. “While challenges certainly remain ahead, we are encouraged by the many recent initiatives San Francisco has undertaken to spur the economy and business climate. We believe The Townsend Building will be a beneficiary of these initiatives.

“Our view is reinforced by our proprietary data that tracks indicators like workday traffic patterns and public transit ridership, giving us confidence in the longevity of the investments we are making. San Francisco and the Bay Area are still home to some of the world’s best universities, most innovative investors, and dozens of Fortune 500 companies. We hope to remain a constructive partner to the city and help make San Francisco, and the Bay Area, a better place to live and work.”

The 137,000-square-foot Townsend Building is located directly across the Embarcadero from Oracle Park, home of the San Francisco Giants, and is situated in a neighborhood with numerous retail amenities. The property is within five minutes’ walk of the San Francisco Caltrain station and the recently opened Muni Central Subway, providing tenants with convenient transit access. The property is anchored by an A-credit rated tenant who have occupied the majority of the building since 2013.
