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.

CrossCountry Mortgage Adopts FICO® Score 10 T, Providing Forward Looking Insights for Mortgage-Backed Security Investors

By: via Business Wire

First Mortgage Lender Committed to Issuing Mortgage-Backed Securities Exclusively Based on FICO Score 10 T

CrossCountry Mortgage (CCM), the nation’s number three retail mortgage lender, has adopted FICO® Score 10 T. As a forward-thinking industry trailblazer, the lender will use FICO’s newest, most innovative, and most predictive scoring model to support origination and decision making for non-confirming loans, ultimately helping more consumers realize the dream of homeownership.

Additionally, CCM is the first mortgage lender to commit to issuing mortgage-backed securities (MBS) exclusively based on FICO® Score 10 T. This move will enable investors to update their guidelines to accept the most predictive score for MBS and allow the $12 trillion MBS global market to have access to more powerful insights and information. This commitment will be the first step for investors to familiarize themselves with the new score and realize the promised performance improvement. This first ever instance of FICO Score 10 T applied to an MBS pool will show investors, rating agencies, and other stakeholders a real-world example of the improved predictive performance offered by FICO Score 10 T.

As an industry leader and first to adopt FICO Score 10® T, CCM’s commitment to the scoring model is leading the way for a growing number of companies to adopt the model as well.

"By proactively issuing mortgage-backed securities exclusively based on FICO Score 10 T, we’re helping to empower investors to make smarter decisions,” said Jenn Stracensky, CCM Chief Operating Officer. “We’re excited about the opportunities that the use of FICO Score 10 T will provide as we continue to offer personalized solutions to our customers.”

FICO Score 10® T provides even greater precision in making lending decisions. FICO Score 10 T can help lenders better manage credit risk and default rates when extending competitive credit offers to consumers. Compared to the version of the FICO® Score used by the Enterprises today, FICO® Score 10 T can enable an increase in mortgage originations of up to 5 percent (without taking on additional credit risk) or reduce default risk and losses by up to 17 percent. The more predictive FICO Score 10 T also helps lenders project cash flows more accurately.

“CrossCountry Mortgage’s astute decision to adopt FICO Score 10 T demonstrates its commitment to innovation, credit access and responsible business growth," said Julie May, vice president and general manager of Scores at FICO. “By leveraging FICO’s most predictive credit scoring model, CCM is at the forefront of meeting the needs of today’s borrowers and investors.”

FICO is committed to assisting mortgage industry participants looking to transition to its most current model, FICO® Score 10 T. The FICO Score Migration Resource Center provides a detailed guide to support organizations through their score transition with key planning steps and activities, in addition to implementation best practices.
