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 Redfin Next Agent Pay Plan to 25 Additional Markets

By: via Business Wire

Redfin Next offers agents the best of both worlds: big commission splits with zero expenses and free Redfin.com customer introductions, benefits and support

(NASDAQ: RDFN) — Redfin announced today it is expanding the Redfin Next agent compensation plan to 25 additional markets. Under Redfin Next, agents in these markets earn competitive splits as high as 70%, have virtually all business expenses covered, and get technology, support, benefits and customer introductions from Redfin.com, the #1 brokerage site in the United States.

“Redfin Next has proven to be even better than we imagined at igniting our salesforce, helping us recruit new talent,” said Jason Aleem, Redfin’s chief of real estate services. “When you pair a competitive traditional split with the technology, customer introductions, benefits and support that only we offer, there’s really no limit to what you can achieve at Redfin. We give agents everything they need to amplify their business and focus on serving their customers well. Redfin Next is also helping us gain market share faster in our early markets, which means we’re helping more customers get a better deal when they’re buying or selling. This expansion is a big step toward making this opportunity available to all Redfin agents as we continue to transform our brokerage and grow our presence nationwide.”

Redfin initially announced the plan in San Francisco and Los Angeles in October 2023 and has since expanded it to San Diego, Orange County, Chicago, Connecticut, Dallas, Miami, New York, Palm Beach, and Washington, D.C. Since launch, the brokerage has recruited more than 140 top producing agents in Redfin Next markets. Because of this recruiting success and the positive reception among Redfin’s existing agents, the company is now expanding the plan to the following markets:

  • Austin
  • Boise
  • Coastal North Carolina
  • Columbus
  • Denver
  • Fort Myers
  • Grand Rapids
  • Indianapolis
  • Inland Empire, CA
  • Kansas City
  • Maryland
  • Memphis
  • Minneapolis
  • Nashville
  • New Mexico
  • Palm Springs
  • Portland
  • Raleigh
  • Sacramento
  • Salt Lake City
  • San Antonio
  • Seattle
  • Spokane
  • St. Louis
  • Virginia

The Redfin Next plan includes:

  • Big splits. Zero expenses: At Redfin, what you earn is what you keep because we cover all your necessary business expenses and cover benefits, mileage, payroll taxes and listing expenses.
  • Meet over 100 customers a year: By plugging into the Redfin platform and the 49 million people who use Redfin’s app and website every month, agents can grow their business rapidly.
  • Business in a box: Redfin's technology and staff handle qualifying new customers, scheduling tours, conducting follow-up tours, and coordinating sales & listings. Agents focus on closing deals for customers.
  • Top-tier benefits: Redfin’s benefits package includes medical, dental, and vision insurance; fertility benefits; 401(k) employer match and employee stock purchase program.
  • Define the future of real estate: Redfin puts the customer first, makes the industry more fair and transparent, and uses technology to modernize the real estate experience and make it better.

Agents in the Redfin Next plan will continue to work as employees, not independent contractors. Redfin’s unique employee agent model was built to put the customer first by ensuring agents are held to a high standard and have the support they need to deliver consistently great service. Redfin uses technology to make real estate more efficient, which is one reason Redfin has the most productive agents in the industry, closing more than twice as many transactions as the average agent every year.

Michael Odeh, a Redfin Premier agent in Chicago who has been on the Redfin Next plan since early May, said the new compensation plan is a welcome change. “Ever since I started at Redfin in 2019, I’ve thought that whoever could combine the financial rewards of a traditional brokerage with the efficiency of Redfin’s model would be the future of real estate,” he said. “That’s what Redfin Next is. It gives agents the comfort and security of a traditional career by providing virtually unlimited earnings opportunities, while taking everything else off their plate so they can focus on what really matters: the client. I am so excited about the future and what Redfin Next will bring.”

The 25 expansion markets will move to the Redfin Next pay plan on August 11. Redfin is actively recruiting experienced agents to join the company in markets around the country. Visit our site to start a conversation about how to grow your business and career at Redfin.
