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.

Dow Jones Completes Acquisition of Dragonfly Intelligence and Oxford Analytica

Dow Jones today announced it has completed the acquisition of Dragonfly Intelligence, a geopolitical and security intelligence provider, and Oxford Analytica, a provider of geopolitical intelligence advisory services. Dow Jones acquired the two companies from FiscalNote Holdings, Inc. (NYSE: NOTE) for $40 million. Dow Jones' parent company, News Corp, expects to receive a $4 million tax benefit in connection with the transaction.

Dragonfly and Oxford Analytica will operate as part of Dow Jones Risk & Compliance, complementing its existing product suite with proprietary geopolitical risk and security intelligence. The strategic acquisition is the latest in a series aimed at building Dow Jones’s portfolio of specialized news, data, analysis and events for business professionals.

Dragonfly provides geopolitical and security intelligence to crisis management, security and risk professionals, helping decision-makers at multinational companies, financial institutions and public sector entities solve complex business and operational challenges. With offices in London and Singapore, the company delivers real-time intelligence on potential and ongoing security risks, including early warning detection and forecasting to anticipate threats, risk rating systems around potential major disruptions, and personalized access to key analysts.

Founded in 1975 and based in the UK, Oxford Analytica is a leading provider of macroeconomic and geopolitical risk analysis, helping businesses navigate complex markets and stay ahead of the geopolitical and macroeconomic developments impacting their organizations. The company draws on a worldwide network of experts to deliver trusted global insights and seasoned judgments on global issues, and to advise clients on strategies, operations, policies and investments.

“The addition of Dragonfly Intelligence and Oxford Analytica to our Dow Jones Risk & Compliance portfolio will enhance our ability to provide essential, reliable news and information to businesses navigating the increasingly complex geopolitical and economic landscape,” said Almar Latour, CEO of Dow Jones and Publisher of The Wall Street Journal. “More than ever, businesses and executives need support, and Dow Jones stands ready to deliver with a growing roster of world-class tools and services.”

This acquisition comes at a time of continued growth and expansion for Dow Jones Risk & Compliance. In its fiscal year 2024 earnings, revenue for the business grew 16% year over year to nearly $300 million, driven by continued growth from its data products and services. The company also acquired WorldECR, a provider of news, data and analysis on global export control and trade sanctions, and expanded its ownership stake in Ripjar, a global data intelligence software provider, last year.

These investments underscore the importance of the risk and compliance business to Dow Jones, as well as the company’s commitment to becoming a vital information service provider for the growing risk and compliance community. Baker & Hostetler LLP served as legal counsel to Dow Jones on this transaction.
