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.

U.S. Bank Avvance Added to Pure Finance Group’s Home Improvement Lending Platform

Second partnership for Avvance as point-of-sale (POS) lending continues to scale

U.S. Bank Avvance, a real-time, point-of-sale lending solution, has been selected by Pure Finance Group to support the home improvement lender’s next growth effort.

The integration of Avvance enabled Pure Finance’s efforts to expand into the HVAC segment and is the latest fintech platform to leverage Avvance to provide real-time point-of-sale lending for its own clients.

“U.S. Bank Avvance supports business growth of our partners by providing financing options at the time of sale to meet customers’ demands, coupled with the reliability of the 5th largest commercial bank in the United States,” said Rob Seidman, head of U.S. Bank Avvance. “We’re excited to support Pure Finance’s expansion into a new segment with Avvance, as we continue to discover partners who want the flexibility that real-time point-of-sale lending brings.”

Founded in 2018, the Maryland-based Pure Finance has provided financing for more than 20,000 homeowners through its lending platform developed to support home improvement contractors.

“We’re thrilled to leverage the kind of innovative lending product like Avvance from an innovative and reliable banking partner in U.S. Bank,” said Ed Meister, CEO at Pure Finance Group.

Avvance is the latest addition to U.S. Bank’s deep capabilities that bring together banking and payments. Launched in October 2023 as U.S. Bank’s first real-time consumer lending product, Avvance provides APR-based consumer term loans at the point-of-sale. Focused at launch on providing real-time financing for home improvement and healthcare clients, the Avvance team is continuing to explore how to further expand the innovative point of sale solution to additional segments.
