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.

American Equity Announces Second Quarter 2023 Total Sales1 of $2 Billion and Expected Date of Second Quarter 2023 Earnings Results

American Equity Investment Life Holding Company (NYSE: AEL) (“AEL”) today announced that its second-quarter 2023 sales totaled $2 billion, the majority of which were in fixed index annuities. AEL also announced that it will release its second quarter 2023 earnings results after the market closes on Monday, August 7, 2023. The press release and financial supplement will be posted on the American Equity IR website at https://ir.american-equity.com/ at that time.

In light of its definitive agreement whereby Brookfield Reinsurance (NYSE, TSX: BNRE) will acquire all of the outstanding shares of common stock that it does not already own, AEL will not be holding earnings conference calls with investors going forward.

FIA SALES NEARLY DOUBLE FROM PRIOR SEQUENTIAL QUARTER

Second quarter sales were $2 billion, of which 94%, or $1.9 billion, were in fixed index annuities. Total enterprise FIA sales increased 94% compared to the first quarter of 2023 and 141% compared to the second quarter of 2022.

Compared to the first quarter of 2023, FIA sales at American Equity Life in the Independent Marketing Organization (IMO) channel increased 99%, while Eagle Life FIA sales through banks and broker-dealers rose 77%.

Anant Bhalla, AEL’s President and CEO, commented: “This significant increase in sales reflects the value proposition offered by our industry-leading FIA solutions, enhanced by our private asset strategies driving strong new money yields. Each aspect of the AEL flywheel is working seamlessly – a testament to our team’s execution of the AEL 2.0 strategy – creating momentum in annuity origination and ensuring lifelong financial dignity for our policyholders.”

CAUTION REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

The forward-looking statements in this release, such as driving and will, and their derivative forms and similar words, as well as any projections of future results, are based on assumptions and expectations that involve risks and uncertainties, including the "Risk Factors" AEL describes in its U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission filings and as described in the “Cautionary Notice Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” in AEL’s July 5, 2023 news release. AEL's future results and events could differ, and it has no obligation to correct or update any of these statements.
