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.

ICE Reaches Record Open Interest Across Global Energy Markets

Intercontinental Exchange, Inc. (NYSE: ICE), a leading global provider of data, technology, and market infrastructure, today announced record open interest (OI) across its global energy futures and options markets of 50.4 million contracts on June 23, 2023, up 11% year-over-year (y/y).

Across ICE’s global oil markets, OI is up 13% y/y at 12.2 million, with OI in Brent futures and options up 14% y/y at 5.1 million. Brent is used to price over three quarters of the world’s internationally traded oil and is the most liquid crude oil futures and options market in the world.

ICE’s global energy options market is performing strongly, with OI up 18% at 17.8 million. OI across ICE’s oil options markets is up 10% y/y at 4.2 million, including up 7% in Brent options. Brent options represent the primary crude oil options market in the world in terms of open interest and volume. OI in ICE’s natural gas options markets is up 23% y/y at 13 million, with TTF options hitting record OI of over 1.5 million on June 23, 2023, up 79% y/y.

With Midland WTI crude now deliverable into the Brent Basket, ICE’s Midland WTI (Code: HOU) contract has seen OI grow to over 30,000 contracts as participants choose HOU to directly price and hedge Midland WTI exposure. The contract, underpinned by over 4 million barrels per day of supply capacity of Midland-origin WTI direct into Houston, is now seeing 5 million barrels going to delivery each month. Midland WTI barrels deliverable against the ICE HOU contract are deliverable into Dated Brent and the rest of the Brent complex.

Other oil benchmarks performing strongly include ICE Gasoil where OI is up 45% y/y, the highest since January 2022; ICE Dubai (Platts) where OI is up 39% y/y at 834,000; and ICE Murban Crude Oil where OI is up 24% y/y at 51,300 contracts.

“We are seeing our customers take advantage of the liquid energy benchmarks ICE offers, particularly in times of market uncertainty and change,” said Jeff Barbuto, Global Head of Oil Markets at ICE. “Utilizing our liquidity and real time pricing to manage their risk exposure globally, customers benefit from the margin offsets available when trading their global energy portfolio at ICE.”

Across ICE’s global natural gas futures and options markets, OI is up 13% y/y at 32.9 million, with record OI set in ICE’s natural gas futures on June 26, 2023, of 19.8 million. ICE offers customers the broadest range of benchmarks to support the liberalization of natural gas including global benchmark TTF, U.S. benchmark Henry Hub, Canadian benchmark AECO, UK benchmark NBP, and ICE JKM LNG (Platts) the benchmark for natural gas for North-East Asia. OI in TTF natural gas is up 40% y/y with record market participation in TTF futures and options, whilst ICE’s natural gas liquid (NGL) futures markets have set successive OI records in June hitting a high of 315,188 contracts on June 27, 2023.
