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.

TPG Announces Investment in Compass Surgical Partners to Fuel Growth in Ambulatory Surgery Center Joint Ventures

By: via Business Wire

TPG (NASDAQ: TPG), a leading global alternative asset management firm, today announced a significant strategic investment in Compass Surgical Partners (“Compass” or the “Company”), an independent full-service ambulatory surgery center (ASC) development and management partner. TPG Growth, the firm’s middle market and growth equity platform, is funding the investment, participating alongside existing investor Health Velocity Capital. As a strategic capital partner, TPG will bring valuable expertise to the Compass Surgical Partners leadership team, accelerating growth and scaling capacity in response to increased demand in ASC joint ventures from health system partners.

“We have known DJ and the Compass team for a number of years and are excited to partner with such a high caliber team and Company. Compass offers deep strategic and operational expertise to guide its provider partners through the complexities of ASC development and management,” said Zach Ferguson, Partner at TPG. “This investment is a continuation of our longstanding investment thesis around partnering with great operators to build leading ambulatory care networks through joint ventures with health systems and physician groups. We look forward to collaborating with the entire Compass team and the Company’s existing investors in the coming years.”

Health systems nationwide are increasingly migrating certain surgical procedures from hospital outpatient departments to standalone ASC facilities. In addition to significant cost savings for both patients and hospitals, patients often favor the consumer experience and convenience of an ASC. Physicians overwhelmingly prefer to operate in ASCs, which offer highly customized operating suites and specialized operating room teams.

“We are thrilled to partner with the team at TPG Growth, which brings a wealth of healthcare services experience and strategic resources to Compass. TPG’s investment will serve as a powerful growth catalyst, enabling enhanced infrastructure support for our partners,” said DJ Hill, Chief Executive Officer of Compass Surgical Partners. “We are also grateful for Health Velocity Capital’s continued support of our mission and trust in our leadership team. This is an exciting time for Compass and the ASC industry and we are well positioned to provide enhanced value to our joint venture centers, physician partners, and patients.”

Terms of the transaction were not disclosed. Latham & Watkins served as legal counsel to TPG and Crowe LLP advised on accounting, tax, and IT. McDermott Will & Emery served as legal counsel to Compass.
