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.

Citizens Achieves ‘Outstanding’ Community Reinvestment Act Rating

Citizens Financial Group (NYSE: CFG) announced today that its Citizens Bank, N.A. subsidiary has received the highest possible rating from the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC) for its most recent performance under the Community Reinvestment Act (CRA). Citizens has consistently achieved an Outstanding rating since its IPO in 2015.

“Citizens is committed to ensuring the communities we serve have access to the resources needed to reach their potential,” said Bruce Van Saun, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, Citizens Financial Group. “We are pleased that the OCC has recognized our efforts with this rating and remain focused on helping build strong communities across our footprint.”

Significant community achievements during the period which led to Citizens’ “Outstanding” rating include:

  • Citizens extended more than $4 billion in Community Development qualified loans and investments to help stabilize and revitalize neighborhoods by supporting affordable housing and community services.
  • Citizens loaned more than $3.8 billion to small businesses and to businesses in low- and moderate-income communities.
  • Citizens made more than $12 billion in mortgage loans to low- and moderate-income borrowers and to borrowers in low- and moderate-income communities.
  • As of December 2021, nearly 35 percent of Citizens branches were readily accessible to residents of low- and moderate-income communities.

Adopted in 1977, the CRA requires federally insured deposit-taking institutions to support the borrowing needs of all the communities where they do business, including low– and moderate–income areas. Banks were rated during the evaluation period from January 2019 to December 2021 for their lending, investments, and service activities. Citizens’ Outstanding rating signifies that the bank is a leader in, ascertaining and helping to meet the credit needs of its entire delineated community, including low- and moderate-income neighborhoods, in a manner consistent with its resources and capabilities.
