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.

Palmer Square Prices Over $1.8 Billion in CLOs Setting the Market

  • Notable issuances include debut CLO from Palmer Square’s publicly traded BDC and a benchmark setting US Static and European CLO issuance
  • Palmer Square has issued 7 CLOs in 2024 and the largest BSL CLO deal of the year

Palmer Square Capital Management (“Palmer Square”), a credit-focused asset management firm with over $30.0 billion in assets, is pleased to announce over $1.8 billion of CLO issuances across three benchmark transactions within the past week.

Palmer Square priced Palmer Square Loan Funding 2024-3, a $1.0 billion static collateralized loan obligation (“CLO”) primarily composed of broadly syndicated first lien senior secured loans. Palmer Square significantly upsized this transaction to accommodate investor demand. The AAA tranche priced at 108 basis points— the lowest coupon static CLO AAA pricing of the year. The deal was arranged by Citibank and has a 1-year non-call period.

The firm also recently priced Palmer Square European CLO 2024-1, a €416.0 million CLO reinvestment transaction that set a new benchmark on European AAA pricing for the year.

Palmer Square’s publicly traded BDC, Palmer Square Capital BDC Inc. (NYSE: PSBD), through Palmer Square BDC CLO I, a wholly owned indirect subsidiary of PSBD, along with Bank of America as arranging partner, priced a $400.5 million debut CLO secured by broadly syndicated loans transferred to the CLO by PSBD. This is the first CLO transaction to be issued out of PSBD. PSBD’s CLO represents the first BSL CLO to be issued in the publicly traded BDC market and provides an attractive form for term-based financing for PSBD.

Year to date, Palmer Square has issued approximately $4.2 billion in CLOs including four new issue CLOs, three reset CLOs, and one refinanced CLO. Overall, Palmer Square has issued 74 CLOs.

Palmer Square Chairman and CEO Christopher Long said, “Our history of precedent setting transactions, and especially our accomplishments on behalf of our investors in 2024 demonstrate the capabilities of our industry leading team, and the merits of our disciplined and differentiated approach to credit investing. We are all immensely proud of the value we have been able to provide for our investors, borrowers and stakeholders, and look forward to continuing to accelerate our strong growth trajectory.”
