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.

Wolters Kluwer’s new iLien ResiFixture™ gains traction in protecting interests for residential fixture collateral

First-to-market, one-step process automates and simplifies fixture-related filings

Wolters Kluwer Compliance Solutions’ introduction of iLien ResiFixture™ is playing a critical step in helping lenders safeguard their interests for loans associated with fixtures physically attached to a residential property.

“iLien ResiFixture provides residential lenders a simpler path to securing their fixture-related assets,” notes Vikram Savkar, Executive Vice President and General Manager, Wolters Kluwer Compliance Solutions. “Importantly, it represents the latest innovation by Wolters Kluwer in transforming the lending space through enhanced technology and automated processes.”

Collateral such as solar panels, HVAC equipment, pools and spas, and other items not easily removable from a property fall under the category of assets protected under this newly launched solution.

When it comes to securing fixture-related interests, lenders face numerous obstacles to achieving the needed level of protection. Challenges include problems building and maintaining a comprehensive knowledge of varying requirements, the lack of easily accessible, reliable property information, long turnarounds and relatively frequent jurisdictional filing rejections. There are often filing inaccuracies, and higher costs associated with manually processing high volumes.

As a result, there is the potential loss of first position on that collateral. “We are excited to be the first in the market to offer residential lenders this innovative, one-step filing solution that addresses these concerns,” says Savkar.

Securing the additional layer of protection for fixture-related collateral typically involves filing a UCC-1 (Uniform Commercial Code Financing Statement) with both the state and county. These filings can allow lenders to obtain priority over another entity with an interest in the same property, while mitigating the risk of debtor bankruptcy and loss of equipment. But they require an additional level of property information and varying filing steps at the state and county levels, posing a set of unique challenges for lenders.

The iLien ResiFixture service alleviates these challenges, leveraging automation to transform the filing process. Lenders need only provide the essential UCC filing information, while the platform’s logic handles the legal description search and required UCC filing in the appropriate jurisdiction, with Wolters Kluwer experts handling any remaining steps, including rejections. Ultimately, this approach reduces costs, saves time, and mitigates lender risk, all with full transparency.
