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.

FHLBank Atlanta and Synovus Bank award $500,000 grant to Georgia Heirs Property Law Center Inc.

Federal Home Loan Bank of Atlanta (FHLBank Atlanta) and Synovus Bank are delivering a $500,000 grant to Georgia Heirs Property Law Center Inc. The grant will be used to prevent and resolve heirs’ property issues that arise when home or landowners leave their property to others without a clear will, estate plan, title or deed.

Synovus and Georgia Heirs Property Law Center partnered to apply for the grant, which is awarded from FHLBank Atlanta’s 2024 Heirs Property Family Wealth Protection Fund. In total, this program from FHLBank Atlanta is awarding $5.9 million through its member banks, such as Synovus, to 21 organizations addressing heirs’ property issues.

“A key part of our mission is to advance homeownership, and that includes helping families pass along the hard-earned equity they have built in their properties,” said Kirk Malmberg, president and CEO of FHLBank Atlanta. “Heirs’ property issues are a pervasive problem in many communities, and this fund will enable seasoned organizations to help thousands of families preserve and protect their inheritances.”

A 2024 Harris Poll survey sponsored by FHLBank Atlanta found that 90% of homeowners expect the equity in their homes to benefit their heirs, yet 43% do not have a will, trust or estate plan. FHLBank Atlanta created the Family Wealth Protection Fund to support organizations that help property owners by writing wills and estate plans or resolving existing tangled titles.

“As a member of FHLBank Atlanta, we wanted to maximize their grant program to support Georgia Heirs Property Law Center with a significant grant to benefit people across the state,” said Natalie Parker, senior director, Community Reinvestment Act and community development at Synovus. “The Georgia Heirs Property Law Center has a particular expertise in resolving tangled titles and ensuring the proper legal documents are in place for families to build generational wealth with their homes or land.”

“The Center helps grow Georgia’s economy through property rights. Heirs’ property not only limits a family’s ability to build generational wealth but also undermines the efforts of local governments and businesses trying to revitalize communities. Partners like the FHLBank Atlanta and Synovus understand the value in leveraging direct legal services and asset education to empower low- and moderate-income families to address their heirs’ property,” said Skipper StipeMaas, executive director of the Center.

Services delivered by organizations receiving grant funding are free to property owners.
