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.

The Presidio Group Advises on Sale of Anderson Autos Domestic Dealerships in Thousand Oaks

Swickard Auto Group completes second purchase, continues growth in Southern California market

The Presidio Group LLC (“Presidio”), an independent merchant banking firm focused on mergers and acquisitions, capital raising, and investments in the automotive retail and consumer mobility sectors, exclusively advised Anderson Autos of Thousand Oaks on the sale of three dealerships to the Swickard Auto Group of Las Vegas, Nevada.

The sale to Swickard Auto Group completes the second phase of a transaction that began in December 2022. The second phase of the sale includes Buick GMC, Cadillac and Chevrolet dealerships in Thousand Oaks. In December, Anderson Auto sold Swickard five dealerships comprised of seven franchises. That transaction included Acura, Honda, Jaguar, Land Rover, Lexus, Mercedes-Benz and Commercial Van dealerships.

“We are excited to finalize the second part of this transaction with Swickard Auto Group,” said William S. Anderson, CEO of Anderson Holdings. “The Presidio Group did an outstanding job facilitating both phases of the sale. I know Jeff Swickard looks forward to welcoming our team members from these next three dealerships and providing them the opportunity to continue to thrive under his leadership.”

Swickard Auto Group also operates dealerships in California, Alaska, Oregon, Texas and the state of Washington. The three new domestic dealerships in the latest transaction doubles the number of domestic dealerships owned by Swickard.

Swickard Auto Group CEO Jeff Swickard expressed gratitude for the opportunity to acquire multi-generational owned dealerships from the Anderson family and acknowledged the strategic acquisition as a significant milestone in the company's continued expansion in Thousand Oaks and greater Los Angeles. While the business grows and diversifies its brands, Swickard said he remains committed to upholding the Anderson legacy and serving the local communities, colleagues, and customers with empathy and professionalism.

Said Presidio President and Partner George Karolis: “Presidio treats every transaction with the customized care it needs. When we look to match buyer and seller, we are mindful of the years of hard work that hundreds of people poured into building these dealerships. So finding that ideal buyer like Swickard Auto, in this case, is a task we set about deliberately and with great thought and care. We are grateful to be part of this process and pleased with the result for both teams at Anderson Autos and Swickard Auto.”

Said Presidio Group CEO Brodie Cobb: “The buy-sell market has started off strong in 2023, continuing the robust ride from the year before, which is a great sign for our customers. Whatever the market, our goal at Presidio remains to provide world-class service and be a trusted partner for this year and beyond.”

Aaron Jacoby and David Meyer, partners with Arentfox Schiff, LLP, served as legal counsel to the seller.

Michael Fletcher, a partner with Tonkon Torp, LLP, served as legal counsel to the buyer.

The Presidio Group provided exclusive M&A advisory services to Anderson Autos through its wholly owned investment bank, Presidio Merchant Partners LLC.
