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.

FHLB Dallas Expands Eligibility for Veterans Housing Program

$300K was Allocated to Assist with Repairs or Down Payments

The Federal Home Loan Bank of Dallas (FHLB Dallas) has expanded the eligibility for the Housing Assistance for Veterans (HAVEN) program. The program, which has been available only to veterans, active-duty, reserve or National Guard service members who became disabled as a result of their military service since September 11, 2001, will now include service members who became disabled as a result of their military service since August 2, 1990.

“With this expansion, more disabled veterans and Gold Star Families will qualify for assistance for necessary home repairs or for down payment and closing cost assistance,” said Greg Hettrick, senior vice president and director of Community Investment at FHLB Dallas. “Repairing or buying a home can be incredibly expensive. We are pleased to expand HAVEN to more of our active-duty service members, veterans, reservists, National Guardsmen and Gold Star Families.”

HAVEN, which is awarded through participating FHLB Dallas member institutions, provides up to $15,000 per household and includes eligible Gold Star Families, which are the immediate family members of a fallen service member who died while serving in a time of conflict. FHLB Dallas allocated $300,000 in HAVEN funds for 2023, which member financial institutions may access to assist eligible applicants on a first-come, first-served basis.

Recipients may use HAVEN funds to:

  • Modify, repair or rehabilitate an existing home or one they plan to purchase to meet the needs of a U.S. veteran or service member
  • Offset construction costs of a newly constructed house
  • Pay for third-party inspection and developer fees
  • Provide funds for down payments and/or closing costs to assist eligible veterans, service members or Gold Star Families in purchasing a first home

Program Requirements:

  • Households must have a family income of 165 percent or less of the area median income
  • If the HAVEN funds are used for down payment assistance or closing costs, then the grant recipient must qualify as a first-time homebuyer and complete a homeowner counseling course
  • Households may not receive any cash back

HAVEN funds are available until the funds are exhausted or until December 31, 2023, whichever occurs first.

Contact your financial institution if it is on the list of participating HAVEN members or reach out to another in your area on the participating list to see if you or a family member qualifies for HAVEN.
