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.

Forge Global Names the Private Magnificent 7 – the High-Performing Unicorns Driving the U.S. Innovation Economy

By: via Business Wire

Forge Global Holdings, Inc. (“Forge,” or the “Company”) (NYSE: FRGE), a leading private market platform, has identified the Private Magnificent 7, which comprises seven of the largest, most resilient, and highest-performing companies in the U.S. innovation economy. Much like their public market counterparts, this diverse group of late-stage, venture-backed companies has demonstrated both superior growth and remarkable resilience throughout the recent market cycle, including the Great Reset, a period of significant valuation contraction that characterized the post-peak period of the last 2.5 years. The Private Magnificent 7 includes SpaceX, OpenAI, Stripe, Databricks, Fanatics, Scale AI, and Rippling, spanning multiple sectors including: AI, Aerospace, Fintech, Consumer & Lifestyle, and Enterprise Software.

“While the post-2021 market downturn was undoubtedly a challenging period for the private market, the Private Magnificent 7 proved resilient,” said Kelly Rodriques, CEO of Forge Global. “Forge believes these companies reflect the current and emerging themes of private investing and are driving the secular growth of the U.S. innovation economy.”

The Private Magnificent 7 collectively account for $473 billion in implied valuation, based on Forge data – 30x smaller than the Public Magnificent 7, which is now roughly the equal to the size of Japan, Canada, and the U.K.’s stock markets combined1.

Though smaller in size, the Private Magnificent 7 has outperformed2 its public market counterpart by 16.9% in the 12-month period ending August 31, 2024. The select group’s price performance rose 55.3%, and in comparison, the public Magnificent 7 rose 38.4% in the same period3. While the sector compositions are different between the Public and Private Magnificent 7, Artificial Intelligence as a secular growth trend is reflected in both cohorts.

Forge operates a leading platform for private market trading and data intelligence. This includes Forge Price, a proprietary pricing model for approximately 250 late-stage, venture-backed companies with secondary market liquidity. Forge Price underlies the methodology for identifying the Private Magnificent 7. The selection process for identifying the Private Magnificent 7 was based on a set of rigorous criteria, including company size, share price performance, secondary trading liquidity, market leadership, and brand equity.

Forge Price is also used to power Forge’s indices, which include the Forge Private Market Index, a first-of-its-kind benchmark for private market performance and the Forge Accuidity Private Market Index, which is tracked by the Accuidity Megacorn Fund. The Megacorn Fund adopts an index-based investment strategy to provide investors with low-cost, diversified exposure to late-stage, venture-backed companies.
