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.

Tennis Star Chris Eubanks, Congresswoman Nikema Williams and FICO to Host Financial Literacy Event for Atlanta HBCU Students

The event is designed to equip students with the essential tools and credit knowledge needed to confidently begin their financial journeys

FICO (NYSE: FICO)

Highlights:

  • The event on November 22 features a fireside chat with Atlanta-based Tennis Star Chris Eubanks and Congresswoman Nikema Williams.
  • Students attending the workshop will gain free access to valuable credit tools and financial education to support their financial literacy journey.
  • 90% of Gen Z young adults state that their current financial situation would improve if they had access to more personal finance resources and education, FICO survey reports.

On November 22, 2024, global analytics software leader, FICO (NYSE: FICO), will host a Score A Better Future™ financial literacy event at Clark Atlanta University (CAU) in partnership with the CAU Office of Financial Literacy and the CAU School of Business. Students from several Atlanta area Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs) such as CAU, Morris Brown College, Morehouse College and Spelman College will have the opportunity to attend.

The event is designed to equip students with the essential tools and credit knowledge needed to confidently begin their financial journeys. Professional tennis player and Olympian, Chris Eubanks, will participate in inspirational fireside chat aimed at inspiring students to take control of their personal finances, and also will host a clinic with the CAU tennis team.

"We are proud to collaborate with FICO to offer this critical workshop that empowers our students with the financial knowledge they need to succeed in their personal and future professional lives," said George T. French, Jr., Ph.D., president of Clark Atlanta University. "Developing healthy financial habits early on is crucial in breaking down barriers and opening doors for young people. We thank FICO for providing our students with an opportunity to learn and prepare for a successful future."

A recent FICO survey found that fewer than half of Gen Z adults are checking their credit scores, and nearly one in four aren’t sure where to find this information. With 28% lacking the tools to improve their credit understanding, the need for financial literacy has never been more critical. The workshop will provide students from participating HBCUs with free information and tools to help drive education in credit, budgeting, and financial planning.

“FICO has a longstanding commitment to advancing financial literacy and empowering people through credit education,” said Jenelle Dito, senior director of Client Services at FICO. “We’re excited to engage directly with HBCUs and students to bridge the knowledge gap and create new opportunities for them to achieve their future goals.”

Congresswoman Nikema Williams is also set to attend and discuss the importance of financial literacy with the students during the fireside chat.

“Financial literacy is key to ensuring the economic mobility of young people, especially students at HBCUs. The FICO Score A Better Future program is an invaluable resource, equipping our future leaders with the skills they need to help manage their finances, build wealth, and achieve long-term success,” said Congresswoman Nikema Williams. “This initiative is a critical step in leveling the playing field and empowering the next generation of innovators and community leaders.”
