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.

Franklin Templeton Appoints Dean R. Sackett III as Managing Director of Government Affairs

Franklin Resources, Inc. [NYSE: BEN], a global investment management organization operating as Franklin Templeton, today announced the appointment of Dean R. Sackett III as Managing Director of Government Affairs. In this newly created role, Sackett will represent Franklin Templeton and its specialist investment managers on a variety of U.S. policy matters. He will report to Paul Elmlinger, Deputy General Counsel and Global Head of Public Policy, and be based in Washington, D.C.

“As the U.S. policy landscape continues to change and evolve at a rapid pace, our work with Congress, regulators and other policymakers – directly and through trade associations – is critically important to our ability to help inform policy discussions to benefit our clients, including those saving for important life goals such as retirement, college education and purchasing a home,” said Elmlinger. “We are pleased to have someone of Dean’s caliber join our team. He brings extensive experience on Capitol Hill and deep perspective and comprehensive knowledge of the investment management industry, including policy matters that impact our investors and the firm itself.”

“Many important legislative and regulatory measures are currently being considered in the U.S. in areas including retirement savings, the democratization of investor access to alternative investments, sustainability issues, cybersecurity risk management and crypto and digital assets,” Sackett said. “I look forward to working with the experienced team at Franklin Templeton to ensure that our investors, including U.S. retirees, are given a strong voice on policy matters that impact their investments and financial well-being.”

Previously, Sackett was with the Investment Company Institute (ICI) for over 20 years, most recently serving as Chief Government Affairs Officer for nearly 13 years through December 2021. He joined the ICI in 2000 as a lobbyist and headed the financial services practice group before being appointed Chief Government Affairs Officer and Co-Head of Government Affairs in 2009. He was promoted to the sole head of Government Affairs in 2019. Before joining ICI, Sackett served as Vice President and led the government affairs department of the National Association of Professional Insurance Agents and worked on Capitol Hill for Congressman Bob Livingston and the House Appropriations Committee. In January 2022, Sackett founded Polaris Capitol Strategies, a boutique lobbying and public policy firm that provides strategic counsel to clients to navigate complex legislative and regulatory policy matters in the Washington, D.C., political environment. In this role, Sackett has represented Franklin Templeton since July 2022. Sackett graduated cum laude from West Virginia University and from the National Law Center at the George Washington University.
