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.

State Street Global Advisors to Launch New Company Board-Aligned Voting Policy

Expands voter choice as program goes live for US ETF and mutual fund investors

State Street Global Advisors, the asset management business of State Street Corporation (NYSE: STT), today announced it will offer investors a new company board-aligned voting policy option to further expand investor choice.

The Vote with Company Board Recommendation Policy option, which will be the most widely available of its kind in the industry, allows shareholders in US equity index ETFs and mutual funds managed by State Street Global Advisors to strictly align the voting of their shares with the proxy voting recommendations of the boards of directors of the portfolio companies in which those funds are invested.

Additional details and information on the proxy voting policies that will be offered to investors as part of this program can be found on the State Street Global Advisors website.

“As pioneers in the ETF and mutual fund industry, we are proud to launch another meaningful enhancement that expands how investors can express their views,” said Yie-Hsin Hung, CEO of State Street Global Advisors. “This new option, which will vote in line with a board’s recommendation, is proof of our commitment to expand proxy voting choices for our clients.”

In May, State Street Global Advisors announced the expansion of its proxy voting choice offering to include investors that own its US equity index ETFs and mutual funds. The program will now go live this month and expand investor voting choice to all investors in equity index US SPDR ETFs and equity index US SSGA Mutual Funds that invest in US public equities, and will cover more than 80% of eligible index equity assets, including all US institutional equity index funds.

“We believe in providing choice – both in the products we offer to our clients and in the investor voting choice program that we continue to expand on,” said Lori Heinel, global chief investment officer at State Street Global Advisors. “For investors who believe that management and boards generally act in the best interests of shareholders, this proxy voting option aligns well with that view.”

Similar to separately-managed accounts, shareholders of all our funds that are eligible for the program can continue to delegate their votes to the State Street Global Advisors Asset Stewardship team by choosing not to opt in to the firm’s proxy voting program and have State Street Global Advisors continue to vote the shares held by the funds in which they are invested.
