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.

Redfin Expands ‘Sign & Save’ Program Nationwide

Homebuyers can get a refund of up to 0.5% of the purchase price back when they buy a home

(NASDAQ: RDFN) — Redfin expanded its Sign & Save program to more than a dozen additional markets today, including Chicago, Los Angeles, Philadelphia, San Diego and San Francisco. With Sign & Save, homebuyers who sign up to work with a Redfin agent before the second tour can get a refund of 0.25 - 0.5% of the purchase price at closing.

“With Sign & Save, Redfin is giving consumers a better deal in real estate,” said Jason Aleem, Redfin’s senior vice president of real estate operations. “This program rewards customers who commit to working with a Redfin agent early in the process, which is helping drive more sales for our agents. Not only are we putting money back in our customers’ pocket, we’re also educating them about how real estate commissions work and how Redfin can help them win. This is good for our customers, our agents and our growth as a brokerage, which is why we’re expanding it everywhere we can.”

The program was piloted in a handful of markets in September 2023, launched in additional markets in January 2024, and is now available to Redfin’s home buying customers nationwide, except in states where commission refunds are prohibited by law: AK, IA, KS, MS, MO, OK, OR, TN. Redfin encourages policymakers in these states to change these laws and allow commission refunds, which can help consumers save money and drive more competition and innovation in the real estate industry.

How Sign & Save Works

When a homebuyer goes on their first home tour with a Redfin agent, the agent learns about the customer’s goals, explains the benefits of working with Redfin to achieve those goals, and asks the customer to sign a buyer agency agreement. This is a contract that creates a formal working relationship between the customer and Redfin. Customers who sign up to work with a Redfin agent before the second tour and go under contract to purchase a property within 180 days of signing the agreement get a refund when they close on their new home.

The standard Sign & Save refund is 0.25% of the purchase price. An eligible homebuyer purchasing a $500,000 home will save $1,250 with Sign & Save. For customers who purchase a luxury home through Redfin’s Premier service, Redfin offers a 0.5% Sign & Save refund. For a $2 million Premier home, Sign & Save customers will get a $10,000 refund. Because Redfin earns a larger commission on a luxury home sale, it’s able to give the homebuyer a larger refund.
