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.

Gridmatic Unveils $50 Million Dollar Energy Storage Fund, Unlocking New Investment Opportunities in the Energy Sector

The launch of the Energy Storage Fund represents a significant milestone in the maturation of the energy storage industry

Gridmatic, the industry-leading AI-enabled power marketer, today announces the launch of its first Energy Storage Fund, a $50 million fund Gridmatic will use to oversee the management of up to 500 MW of battery capacity in the ERCOT and CAISO markets.

The fund is divided into two tranches, with the initial one successfully completed through a $24.95 million investment from a leading energy investor. Using the fund, Gridmatic will establish multi-year offtake contracts with asset owners to operate energy storage using its AI algorithms. Gridmatic has already begun operating a 50MW / 100MWh battery storage system in Texas using the fund.

Gridmatic ensures secured revenue streams for developers' projects through offtake agreements, enabling them to obtain necessary financing. This, in turn, empowers storage developers to recycle their capital into the development of additional storage systems. Gridmatic is then able to maximize the returns of the contracted storage systems via its AI-enabled optimization. The results are highlighted in Gridmatic’s storage report, showcasing a 46% increase in revenues when backtested against actual results for storage systems in the ERCOT market in 2022. By decoupling project development and active management of the batteries, this structure derisks the operational phase of a project for storage owners and supports the growth of the energy storage industry.

“Through offering a new kind of investment opportunity, this fund represents an advance in the energy storage finance sector,” said David Miller, Vice President of Business Development for Gridmatic. “The growth of renewables, as well as extreme weather, have led to increasing energy market volatility. Battery energy storage has emerged as a critical technology to provide stabilizing services to the grid. By participating in our fund, investors can capitalize on this volatility without the responsibility of managing an entire battery project or development platform.”

Gridmatic's fund opens up a new asset class for investors, providing an opportunity to actively invest in the thriving energy storage market. The sector's growth is expected to be further accelerated by the introduction of the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA).
