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.

Weave Living and KKR Establish Urban Living Strategic Partnership in South Korea

By: via Business Wire

The venture will target to build an initial portfolio of c.1,200 units primarily in Seoul

WEAVE LIVING (“Weave”), Asia Pacific’s preeminent living sector specialist, and KKR, a leading global investment firm, today announced the establishment of a strategic partnership to invest in rental housing assets in South Korea, with a focus on Seoul. The strategic partnership will target to build a rental housing asset portfolio of c.1,200 units with the initial tranche of capital and the strategic partners intend to scale this program over time as opportunities emerge.

This transaction marks KKR’s first investment program in the rental housing sector in South Korea. KKR will hold a majority stake in the strategic partnership, while Weave will hold the remaining minority stake in addition to providing a range of management services to the venture as development manager and operating partner. The portfolio of assets will operate under the Weave Living brand umbrella, and Weave intends to offer its full repertoire of brand options which includes four consumer brands — WEAVE STUDIOS, WEAVE PLACE, WEAVE SUITES and WEAVE RESIDENCES — to renters in South Korea to cater to the diverse needs of prospective tenants.

David Cheong, Managing Director and Co-Head of Acquisitions on KKR’s Asia Real Estate team, said: "Korea has been a cornerstone of our Asia Pacific real estate strategy for a decade, and we are thrilled to make our foray into the urban rental market, which represents an emerging investment segment in Seoul. We are also pleased to establish this venture with Weave, with whom we have developed a trusted and aligned relationship. Together, we look forward to leveraging our respective skills to expand this strategic partnership to better serve our tenants over the long term.”

Sachin Doshi, Founder and Group CEO of WEAVE LIVING said: “Weave is excited to join forces with KKR to establish a foothold in the dynamic living sector in South Korea. KKR has an excellent track record as a real estate investor, and we are honoured that they have chosen Weave as their strategic partner for this asset class in the country. In recent years, renters have been struggling with various housing issues and we have identified a clear gap in the market for beautifully designed, well-located homes, managed to global standards that meet the needs of urban renters and young professionals in South Korea, primarily Seoul. We believe the opportunity is extremely large, and our goal is to facilitate the institutionalisation of the rental housing market in the country by introducing the Weave model to the market.”

The strategic partnership is the latest milestone for KKR’s real estate platform in Asia Pacific. To date, KKR has completed more than 20 transactions in the region across a range of segments including mixed use, commercial, industrial, hotel, office and retail properties. South Korea is an important part of KKR’s Asia Pacific real estate strategy, and today, KKR manages several assets in the country including, but not limited to, office towers located in Seoul’s central business district, and logistics centres located across the country.

This latest strategic partnership follows Weave Living’s recent announcements including upsized investment from its existing shareholders – Warburg Pincus and Founder Sachin Doshi, further expansion in Japan, where it recently (March 2024) opened three assets and acquired two new assets in prime locations in Tokyo, bringing the company’s Japan-based offerings to 11 locations. South Korea is Weave’s fourth market in Asia Pacific, following Hong Kong, Singapore, and Japan, establishing it as the preeminent living sector specialist in the region. Weave opened its Seoul office in June 2023 and currently has seven team members based there, with plans to double its headcount this year.

About Weave Living

Founded in 2017 by Sachin Doshi as a response to the gap in the market for beautifully designed and professionally managed living options, WEAVE LIVING currently owns and operates c. 2,500 rental accommodation units across the Asia-Pacific region under its four consumer brands — WEAVE STUDIOS, WEAVE PLACE, WEAVE SUITES and WEAVE RESIDENCES — catering to a broad and diverse demographic of urbanites and professionals in key gateway cities.
