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.

Each member was awarded $7,500 to provide to a nonprofit of its choice for demonstrating a commitment to supporting affordable housing or other programs from FHLB Dallas in support of their communities.

FNBT, based in Killeen, Texas, has used Small Business Boost, a secondary loan program from FHLB Dallas that closes the gap between what a business needs and what the member can finance. It has also supported veterans and their families with grants for home repairs through the Housing Assistance for Veterans (HAVEN) program.

Between 2019 and 2022, FNBT leveraged $2.3 million in Affordable Housing Program (AHP), small business assistance and other specialized grant program funds. Watch this video about FNBT’s assistance for small businesses and veterans through FHLB Dallas.

“We’re so honored to accept this prestigious award,” said Adam Martin, senior vice president of Commercial Lending at FNBT. “We will reinvest the award dollars into helping our communities in conjunction with the United Way of Central Texas. We have always enjoyed working with FHLB Dallas and look forward to doing so for years to come.”

Home Bank, based in Lafayette, Louisiana, has been very active in the Partnership Grant Program (PGP), through which FHLB Dallas provides a 3:1 match of member contributions up to $12,000 to help community-based organizations (CBOs) increase their outreach and organizational capacity.

Between 2019 and 2022, Home Bank leveraged more than $4 million in AHP, disaster recovery assistance and other specialized grant program funds. Watch this video about Home Bank’s funding assistance for the Leona Tate Foundation for Change in New Orleans, Louisiana; The Hub: Lafayette Urban Ministries, which provides services to homeless people in Lafayette, Louisiana; and Step Up Acadiana, a Lafayette nonprofit that assists first-time homebuyers through FHLB Dallas programs.

“Home Bank is humbled and thrilled to be a recipient of this prestigious award,” said Kelvin Luster, senior vice president and community development director at Home Bank. “We will use this CARE Award as continued motivation to strive for excellence in helping everyone in our communities that we serve. Because of FHLB Dallas, Home Bank has the privilege and opportunity to do just that.”

The First Bank, based in Hattiesburg, Mississippi, is a Community Development Financial Institution and its use of the Disaster Rebuilding Assistance (DRA) program has played a significant role in the coastal communities of Mississippi that it serves.

“FHLB Dallas programs have helped our communities get back on their feet following devastating storms,” said Jerome Brown, executive vice president and chief community officer at The First Bank. “This CARE Award epitomizes what we do in our communities. It’s a tremendous honor because it truly aligns with our mission, which is to assist the communities that we serve.”

Between 2019 and 2022, The First Bank leveraged more than $3.8 million in AHP, disaster recovery assistance and other specialized grant program funds. Watch this video about its involvement in helping communities recover from natural disasters, including its work with Recover, Rebuild Restore Southeast Mississippi (R3SM).

“It's been a pleasure to work with these members and we’re honored to recognize them for their continued commitment to affordable housing and economic development,” said Greg Hettrick, senior vice president and director of Community Investment at FHLB Dallas.
