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.

New Era Helium and Sharon AI Finalize Newly Created Joint Venture, Texas Critical Data Centers LLC, To Build 250MW Net-Zero Energy Data Center in the Permian Basin

By: via Business Wire

New Era Helium, Inc. (Nasdaq:NEHC) (“NEH,” “New Era Helium” or the “Company”), an exploration and production (E&P) company sourcing helium produced in association with natural gas reserves within the Permian Basin, is pleased to announce the finalization of its previously announced 50/50 joint venture (“JV”) with Sharon AI, Inc. (“Sharon AI”), a High-Performance Computing business specializing in Artificial Intelligence, Cloud GPU Compute Infrastructure, and Cloud Storage. The newly created joint venture, named Texas Critical Data Centers (“TCDC”), LLC will be a collaboration to fund, develop, and construct a cutting-edge 250MW net-zero energy data center within the Permian Basin.

A Groundbreaking Partnership for Clean Energy and AI/HPC

In December 2024, the two companies executed a binding letter of intent (LOI) to develop and operate a 250MW net-zero energy data center in the Permian Basin [read here]. This milestone agreement marks a significant leap in leveraging clean energy for AI/HPC-driven industries.

New Era Helium is currently negotiating with Texas Critical Data Centers LLC a long term offtake gas supply agreement which is expected to be finalized within the next 30 days. The details of the gas supply agreement will provide New Era Helium a fixed price for its natural gas over a five-year period plus three options of an additional five years each, for a total of 20 years. This ensures the large-scale data center project will benefit from low-cost, net-zero energy as well as long-term energy price stability, which makes the project strategically well positioned to address the rising energy demands of AI/HPC workloads.

Texas Critical Data Centers LLC currently has multiple sites identified within the Permian Basin that will allow it to access New Era Helium’s natural gas via various existing gas transmission lines while siting the data center in close proximity to existing fibre optic cable and associated infrastructure. It is also working to identify the most efficient manner to access certain 45Q Tax Credits associated with Carbon Capture Utilization and Storage “CCUS”. The ability to capture the anthroprogenic CO2 and dispose of it will help make this data center a true first of its kind.

The next major goal for this collaboration will be the announcement of the final site selection of the 250MW net-zero energy data center. Both New Era Helium and Sharon AI expect this to be announced in Q1 2025. Further announcements pertaining to other certain critical aspects of the joint venture will also be released as they become available.

These next milestones will include certain entitlements for the site, selection of power generation and CO2 capture technology, as well as ongoing conversations with offtake partners, which may include hyperscalers and other large energy users.

E. Will Gray II, CEO of New Era Helium, Inc. commented: “The creation of Texas Critical Data Centers, LLC reflects our goal of building innovative energy infrastructure to support the growing needs of the AI/HPC-driven digital world. By combining our expertise in helium and clean energy with Sharon AI’s cutting-edge computing technologies, we’re setting a new standard for sustainability and innovation.”

Wolf Schubert, CEO of Sharon AI Inc. added: “We are excited to be rapidly progressing our Texas Critical Data Centers LLC joint venture with New Era Helium given the high demand in the US for large-scale, low-cost, net-zero energy data centers, which are essential for powering AI/HPC workloads.”
