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.

Byline Bancorp, Inc. Receives Credit Ratings Upgrade by KBRA

Byline Bancorp, Inc. (NYSE: BY) ("Byline" or "the Company") announced that Kroll Bond Rating Agency, LLC (“KBRA”) has upgraded both Byline and its subsidiary, Byline Bank, credit ratings based on the Company’s strong performance and financial outlook.

KBRA upgraded Byline Bancorp, Inc. senior unsecured debt rating to BBB+ from BBB, upgraded the subordinated debt rating to BBB from BBB-, and upgraded the short-term debt rating to K2 from K3.

In addition, KBRA upgraded Byline Bank deposit and senior unsecured debt ratings to A- from BBB+ and upgraded the subordinated debt rating to BBB+ from BBB. Moreover, KBRA affirms the short-term deposit and debt ratings of K2 for the bank.

The Outlook for all long-term ratings is revised to Stable from Positive following the upgrade.

According to KBRA report, the rating upgrade is supported by Byline’s strong and resilient earnings capacity across various interest rate environments, including the current cycle, where it has demonstrated top quartile profitability within the KBRA-rated universe. While the asset-sensitive balance sheet has contributed to its favorable performance during the more elevated interest rate environment, KBRA believes Byline’s business model also incorporates countercyclical elements. Specifically, its government lending team, which provides substantial revenue tailwinds in a declining rate environment, driving increased gain-on-sale activity, as evidenced in 2021. Additionally, management has proactively shifted the balance sheet toward a more neutral IRR position to mitigate the impact of further Fed rate cuts. Given these factors, KBRA believes Byline’s earnings should remain durable and continue to rank at the higher end of the rating group moving forward. The ratings also reflect Byline’s solid strategic execution over the years, including a proven track record of integrating acquisitions and driving organic growth. This is supported by a strong management team and board of directors, with approximately 30% insider ownership—a factor KBRA views as a credit strength. KBRA also acknowledges the proactive steps taken in preparation for surpassing the $10 billion asset threshold, including investments in infrastructure, risk systems, and talent.

“We are pleased to receive the rating upgrades from KBRA, demonstrating the financial strength of Byline,” said Thomas J. Bell III, Executive Vice President, Chief Financial Officer & Treasurer of Byline Bancorp, Inc. “Their rating reinforces our sound risk management practices, strong financial performance, and confirms our commitment to maintaining a well-diversified credit profile which positions us as a reliable partner for our valued customers and investors."
