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.

loanDepot Launches equityFREEDOM First-Lien HELOC Further Expanding Home Equity Product Suite

By: via Business Wire

loanDepot, Inc. ("LDI" or "Company") (NYSE: LDI), a leading provider of products and services that power the homeownership journey, has expanded its equityFREEDOM product suite to include a first-lien home equity line of credit (HELOC). This new HELOC allows the 38.5% of American homeowners without a mortgage1 to borrow from their home’s equity for large expenses such as home renovations or college tuition, or to consolidate high interest credit card debt. It adds another powerful financial tool to loanDepot's portfolio of products and services that support the lifetime homeownership journey of its customers.

"Homeowners are sitting on unprecedented levels of equity right now, particularly those who no longer carry a mortgage," said LDI President Jeff Walsh. "However, even without a mortgage, many feel the pinch of rising expenses, including insurance and property taxes, which put more pressure on monthly budgets. That’s why we’ve added the first-lien option to our equity lending portfolio to support our customers through the entirety of their homeownership journey, not just during the life of their mortgage."

The ability to tap into equity is a major advantage of homeownership as it can lower the cost of borrowing for large expenses - and, in many cases, the interest may be tax deductible2. Many HELOCs on the market today are second-lien loans, requiring homeowners to have an existing mortgage on their property. A first-lien HELOC is for borrowers who don’t have an existing mortgage on their house3.

The equityFREEDOM First-Lien HELOC allows such borrowers to access the equity in their homes with flexible terms which include a three-year draw period, and, in most states, a 10-year interest-only payment period followed by a 20-year amortizing repayment term4.

As part of its phased national roll out, loanDepot’s equityFREEDOM First-Lien HELOC is available now in Arizona, California, Florida, Georgia, Maryland, New Jersey and New Mexico, and will be introduced in additional states across the country by late 2024.

2 loanDepot encourages consumers to consult tax advisors for applicable requirements and details.

3 If a borrower defaults, the lender holding the first lien HELOC would generally have a primary claim on the property over other creditors.

4 In Texas, loanDepot’s HELOC includes a three-year interest only period followed by a 27-year repayment period.
