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.

MSP® Loan Servicing System from ICE Now Offering Automated Lien Release Functionality

First joint product from newly expanded mortgage technology business

Leverages capabilities across the ICE mortgage ecosystem

ICE has identified many valuable enhancements to the housing finance processes

Intercontinental Exchange (NYSE: ICE) a leading global provider of data, technology, and market infrastructure, announced that its MSP® loan servicing system now features the ability for the automated release of the lien once a mortgage has been paid off. The new Automated Lien ReleaseSM (ALR) capability integrated with MSP combines document creation and automated workflows into one solution and routes lien release packages for eSigning and eRecording, adhering to local regulations for the more than 2,500 U.S. counties where eRecording is available. The launch of the MSP ALR capability marks the first time ICE has harnessed the full capabilities of its expanded mortgage technology business to quickly build and implement solutions that address market needs.

“In the few short months since completing the Black Knight acquisition, we’ve identified many such seemingly simple, but incredibly valuable, ways to enhance the mortgage lending process,” said Tim Bowler, President of ICE Mortgage Technology. “Automated Lien Release is a great example of the capabilities that can be quickly brought to market to help usher U.S. housing finance forward. As always, the ultimate beneficiary of everything ICE does is the American homebuyer.”

Releasing a lien on a property has historically been a laborious process prone to human error, during which servicers coordinate with title companies, vendors, notaries and others to release and record a fully paid lien. With ALR, once payoff funds are received and applied, application programming interface (API) integrations trigger the creation of the lien release package and processing workflow in ICE Mortgage Technology’s closing solutions, which were enhanced by the 2019 acquisition of Simplifile.

Because the MSP ALR capability can reduce mistakes and delays associated with manual processing, recording can take place in days instead of weeks. Even in counties where eRecording is not available, ALR streamlines the process and prints the release package for the servicer to wet sign.

Automated Lien Release is already available to users on the MERS® System and has been helping members electronically sign and notarize documents independent of their servicing system. ALR’s new direct integration within MSP grants that same ability to servicers for their whole portfolios.

“The smooth and timely release of liens is fundamental to keeping American housing finance moving,” said Bowler. “This holds true for home sales, refinances, equity lending and more. Digitizing and automating lien releases is just one step in ICE’s mission to unify the disparate elements of housing finance and create a better experience for the American homeowner.”
