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.

Sabanci Renewables Completes Financing for Oriana Solar Project with $137M Tax Equity Commitment from Advantage Capital

Advantage Capital, a leading impact investment firm, announced that it has committed to provide a $137 million investment to Sabanci Renewables, a North American subsidiary of Sabanci Holding, to complete the financing of its Oriana Solar Project. Located approximately 120 miles southeast of San Antonio, Texas in Victoria County, Oriana is a 232 MWdc utility-scale solar project currently under construction.

Advantage Capital’s investment, which leverages Investment Tax Credits (ITCs) under the Inflation Reduction Act, will provide the remaining capital Sabanci Renewables needs to complete the project's construction. This closing represents the second tax equity financing in Texas between Advantage Capital and Sabanci Renewables during the past year, bringing the combined total energy capacity of Sabanci Renewables’ projects in the Electric Reliability Council of Texas (ERCOT) to more than 500 MWdc.

“We are pleased to expand our partnership with Sabanci Renewables to support building out the power grid in Texas through another utility-scale solar project,” said Tom Bitting, Managing Director at Advantage Capital. “Oriana will have a profound impact on the Gulf Coast region by increasing the clean power supply to critical energy load centers, and Victoria County will reap the added benefit of new job creation for local workers.”

With operations expected to commence in Spring 2025, the Oriana Solar Project includes 425,000 solar modules to be installed on 1,100 acres (equal to more than 800 football fields) and will be able to provide sustainable electricity to the equivalent of 65,000 homes in the region. The project will create more than 300 employment opportunities during the construction period and 10 permanent jobs in its operation phase for local employees.

“We are thrilled to reach another key milestone in our renewable energy journey in the United States with the Oriana Solar Project,” said Tolga Kaan Doğancıoğlu, CEO of Sabanci Renewables. “This project highlights our strong commitment to accelerating the clean energy transition not only in Texas but throughout the U.S., while contributing to the economic growth of local communities. Our ongoing partnership with Advantage Capital plays a pivotal role in realizing our goal of delivering sustainable and dependable energy to numerous households and enterprises. Together, we are confidently building a brighter and more sustainable future.”

A&O Shearman and K&L Gates served as counsel for Advantage Capital on the transaction, and Troutman Pepper and Husch Blackwell served as counsel for Sabanci Renewables. Carbon Reduction Capital (CRC-IB), also served as exclusive financial advisor.

On Dec. 18, 2023, Sabanci Renewables closed $185 million in tax equity financing with Advantage Capital for the Cutlass Solar II project outside of Houston. Cutlass II was completed and commissioned at full capacity ahead of schedule in May 2024.
