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.

Putnam Investments Announces Transfer of Closed-End Fund Management Contracts to Franklin Advisers

Effective July 15, 2024, Putnam Investment Management, LLC (“Putnam Management”) has transferred its management contracts with the Putnam closed-end funds to Franklin Advisers, Inc. (“Franklin Advisers”) (the “Transfer”). Both Putnam Management and Franklin Advisers are wholly-owned subsidiaries of Franklin Resources, Inc. (“Franklin Resources”).

As part of the Transfer, Franklin Advisers has replaced Putnam Management as the investment adviser of each of these closed-end funds (each, a “fund” and collectively, the “funds”):

  • Putnam Master Intermediate Income Trust (NYSE: PIM) (CUSIP: 746909-10-0)
  • Putnam Managed Municipal Income Trust (NYSE: PMM) (CUSIP: 746823-10-3)
  • Putnam Municipal Opportunities Trust (NYSE: PMO) (CUSIP: 746922-10-3)
  • Putnam Premier Income Trust (NYSE: PPT) (CUSIP: 746853-10-0)

Each fund’s portfolio managers have become employees of Franklin Advisers, continuing their integration with the broader fixed income investment team at Franklin Advisers that they have been part of since the closing of Franklin Resources’ acquisition of Putnam Management on January 1, 2024.

In connection with the Transfer, Putnam Management also transferred to Franklin Advisers the sub-management contract between Putnam Management and Putnam Investments Limited in respect of each fund effective July 15, 2024. In addition, as of July 15, 2024, Franklin Advisers retained Putnam Management as sub-adviser for each fund pursuant to a new subadvisory agreement so that Putnam Management’s equity investment team and certain other staff that remained as employees of Putnam Management after the Transfer could continue to provide the same services (including certain investment advisory and related services) to the funds, as applicable by fund, that they had provided to the funds prior to the Transfer.

The Transfer is not expected to change the funds’ respective investment strategies or the way in which the funds’ assets are managed in any material way, as each fund’s current portfolio managers continue to manage the fund as part of Franklin Advisers. The Transfer is also not expected to materially change the nature or level of services provided to each fund, and will not result in an increase in the fees payable by the fund to its investment manager.
