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.

Essent Group Ltd. Comments on Updates to Private Mortgage Insurer Eligibility Requirements

Essent Group Ltd. (NYSE: ESNT) reported today that Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac (the “GSEs”), under the oversight of the Federal Housing Finance Authority (“FHFA”), issued updates to the Private Mortgage Insurer Eligibility Requirements (“PMIERs”) calculation of Available Assets and planned sunset of the use of the 0.3x Required Asset multiplier for loans in a COVID forbearance plan.

The updated PMIERs Available Asset requirements are subject to a phased-in implementation, will have no impact on Essent’s Available Assets or sufficiency ratio until March 31, 2025 and will become fully effective on September 30, 2026. The sunset of the 0.3x Required Asset multiplier for loans in a COVID forbearance plan will become effective on March 31, 2025. If both of these changes were fully in effect as of June 30, 2024, Essent Guaranty’s PMIERs Available Assets would have been $3.3 billion and PMIERs sufficiency ratio would have been 161%, compared to the $3.5 billion and 171%, respectively, previously disclosed under the current requirements.

“Based on the strength of our PMIERs sufficiency ratio today and our high quality and well diversified investment portfolio, we are well positioned to comply with the updated PMIERs,” said Mark Casale, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. “We commend the FHFA and the GSEs for their continued efforts to enhance PMIERs, which further solidifies the role of the private mortgage insurance industry in serving the U.S. housing finance system and supporting affordable and sustainable homeownership.”
