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.

Stonepeak Completes Acquisition of 1.7 Million Square Foot Rail-Served Logistics Portfolio in Chicago

Stonepeak, a leading alternative investment firm specializing in infrastructure and real assets, today announced that it has acquired a three asset, 1.7 million square foot rail-served logistics portfolio in Chicago, Illinois from CenterPoint Properties.

The portfolio is located at the largest inland port in North America, anchored by the BNSF and Union Pacific Class I rail intermodal terminals. All six Class I railroads converge in Chicago, with 25% of U.S. freight trains and half of all intermodal trains passing through. Due to its central location, Chicago is a strategic transportation hub with a one-day delivery window to nearly 55 million U.S. households.

“This transaction demonstrates the power of the Stonepeak platform to invest in supply chain real estate with durable infrastructure characteristics,” said Phill Solomond, Senior Managing Director and Head of Real Estate at Stonepeak. “The portfolio is directly adjacent to critical rail infrastructure and is a strong addition to our broader real estate strategy. We look forward to expanding our portfolio as a trusted buyer who provides speed and certainty of execution.”

This investment represents a continuation of the team’s focus on supply chain real estate anchored by essential inland and coastal port infrastructure. Most recently, in October 2023, Stonepeak sold the Omni Industrial Campus, a 1.3 million square foot logistics portfolio strategically located near the Port of Charleston in South Carolina.

Stonepeak’s real estate team invests thematically in real estate assets that demonstrate infrastructure characteristics. The team draws on its deep experience from prior leadership positions within top investment firms to invest behind high conviction sectors including supply chain, residential, healthcare, and technology real estate. With the benefit of the strength and insights of the broader Stonepeak platform, the team targets opportunities supported by strong macro tailwinds that have durable cash flow profiles, embedded demand drivers, high barriers to entry, inflation protection, and are mission critical to the businesses and communities they serve.

Simpson Thacher & Bartlett LLP served as legal counsel and Eastdil Secured served as financial advisor to Stonepeak.
