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.

ICE Launches New Suite of Indices for Australian Residential Mortgage-Backed Securities Market

Intercontinental Exchange (NYSE: ICE), a leading global provider of technology and data, today announced the launch of a suite of indices for the Australian residential mortgage-backed securities (RMBS) market.

These indices, which are administered by ICE Data Indices, LLC, are accessible in ICE’s Custom Index Tool, which provides a variety of ways to prototype and back test strategies for multiple use cases, including research, benchmark construction, designing new financial products such as ETFs or enabling services such as direct indexing.

This new suite of indices is designed to provide comprehensive and transparent benchmarks for tracking the performance of AUD-denominated residential mortgage-backed securities (RMBS). The new index family includes:

  • ICE Australian RMBS Composite Index (ARMBS). Tracks the performance of RMBS.
  • ICE AAA Australian RMBS Index (ARMBSAAA). Tracks the performance of RMBS rated AAA.
  • ICE BBB and Lower Australian RMBS Index (ARMBLOW). Tracks the performance of RMBS rated BBB1 or lower.
  • ICE AAA Prime Core Australian RMBS Index (ARMBSA3P). Tracks the performance of RMBS comprised solely of prime loans rated AAA.
  • ICE AAA-AA Prime Australian RMBS Index (APRMBHI). Tracks the performance of RMBS comprised solely of prime loans rated AAA through AA3.

Each index is market cap weighted, accrues interest assuming next-day settlement, retains cash flows from bond payments until the end of the month, and is rebalanced on the last calendar day of the month.

“These indices provide a new set of benchmarking options for customers investing in the Australian residential MBS market,” said Varun Pawar, Chief Product Officer at ICE Data Services. “As we continue to expand our diverse set of indexing and benchmarking solutions, this launch represents a significant advancement in providing greater transparency and performance evaluation for markets globally.”

“Despite ongoing global economic uncertainty, the Australian residential MBS market has demonstrated impressive resilience and a promising outlook for growth and new issuance," said Magnus Cattan, Head of APAC Client Development at ICE Data Services. "With the introduction of these new indices, we look forward to supporting our clients across the global fixed income ecosystem and enhancing their investment strategies.”

The Australian RMBS index family leverages ICE’s extensive experience in fixed income pricing and reference data, and the companies deep global product coverage. Our fixed income index offering includes over 6,000 standard indices tracking more than $100 trillion in debt spanning the global bond markets, with debt represented across 43 currencies.
