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.

$15K from Home Bank and FHLB Dallas Gives Air Force Veteran Fresh Start

Grant Funded Repair of Hurricane Damage to Her Home

U.S. Air Force veteran Jaresha Miles can rest easy in her home thanks to a $15,000 Housing Assistance for Veterans (HAVEN) grant from Home Bank and the Federal Home Loan Bank of Dallas (FHLB Dallas).

HAVEN provides grants through FHLB Dallas member institutions such as Home Bank to veterans and active-duty, reserve or National Guard service members who have been disabled in the line of duty since August 2, 1990. Funds can be used for modifications to an existing home, to offset construction costs, or assist with down payments and closing costs. In addition, the funds may be used to assist Gold Star Families that were impacted during this timeframe.

With the HAVEN funds, Ms. Miles was able to make critical repairs to her home, which was damaged by Hurricane Ida in 2021. Previously, she was unable to make repairs due to her insurance company’s bankruptcy.

“This grant has really helped me,” she said. “I went from a deep depression to being so grateful,” she said. She credits Community Development Director and Senior Vice President Kelvin Luster at Home Bank for a smooth application and review process.

“Mr. Luster treated me like family,” she said. “No matter how frustrated I got, he was always there for me. He was amazing. I’ve never gotten that kind of service from anyone.”

Mr. Luster was the driving force that helped Ms. Miles through the entire loan process.

“It’s so rewarding to be able to help our veterans who have served our country,” said Mr. Luster. “HAVEN can really make a difference in someone’s life.”

Ms. Miles, 35, who served as a staff sergeant in a medical unit, retired because of a disability. She calls her military brethren her family. “They are like brothers and sisters,” she said. “They always have your back — no matter what.”

Greg Hettrick, senior vice president and director of Community Investment at FHLB Dallas, stressed the importance of the HAVEN program.

“Our veterans gave so much to this country,” he said. “We are proud to support them.”
