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.

ICE Announces Record Trading Activity in Dubai and Murban Crude As Participants Utilize ICE’s Global Oil Complex to Manage Crude Flows

Intercontinental Exchange, Inc. (NYSE: ICE), a leading global provider of data, technology, and market infrastructure, today announced record trading activity across its ICE Dubai (Platts) and Murban crude markets, as customers utilize ICE’s global oil markets to manage their exposure to energy dynamics.

As part of a complex underpinned by ICE Brent and ICE Gasoil, the reference prices globally for crude oil and middle distillates, and ICE Midland WTI (HOU) which prices and delivers Midland WTI barrels which are also now deliverable into Dated Brent and the Brent complex, ICE’s Dubai and Murban futures markets provide the benchmark prices for Middle East medium sour and light sour crude.

ICE Dubai (Platts) has seen record activity throughout 2023, reaching record open interest (OI), volume and average daily volume (ADV) in July. Dubai hit record OI of 946,080 across futures and options on July 31, 2023, up 55% year-over-year (y/y). A record 1.62 million Dubai contracts traded in July, with ADV at a record 81,094 during the month, up 93% y/y.

Meanwhile, ICE’s Murban futures market reached record OI, volume, and ADV in July with OI reaching a record 61,301 on July 28, 2023, and approximately 240,000 contracts traded during the month, with record ADV of 12,000 contracts.

Both ICE’s Dubai and Murban markets hit records for market participation in July.

“The growth of our Murban and Dubai futures markets has been phenomenal this year,” said Jeff Barbuto, Global Head of Oil Markets at ICE. “It’s a great sign that our customers are finding value and liquidity in the markets we worked with them to develop, which is always our goal.”

Each month, customers use the Murban futures contract to hedge exposure to Murban crude prices, trade, and take physical delivery of Murban crude, with 11 million barrels headed for delivery at the most recent expiry, its second highest.

Murban and Dubai are part of ICE’s global oil complex covering approximately 700 futures and options contracts, centered around ICE Brent which is used to price over three quarters of the world’s internationally traded crude oil and is the most liquid crude oil futures and options market in the world.

Oil is one part of ICE’s extensive global commodity markets where OI hit a record 55.4 million contracts in July 2023.
