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.

Barings Provides $51.4 Million Financing on Lower Tuck in Charlotte, NC

Barings, one of the world’s largest diversified real estate investment managers, announced today that it has provided a $51.4 million loan to a partnership of Third & Urban and TPG Angelo Gordon to refinance the existing loan on Lower Tuck (“the Properties”) in Charlotte, North Carolina.

“We are excited about partnering up with Third & Urban and TPG Angelo Gordon on this adaptive reuse mixed-use campus in the burgeoning FreeMoreWest submarket. Charlotte’s office market fundamentals are steadily improving, with limited new supply expected in the near term. Differentiated offerings like Lower Tuck are well-positioned to benefit from this trend,” said Ryan Naumes, Managing Director with Barings.

Lower Tuck is a portfolio of three Class A, adaptive reuse buildings totaling 247,223 sq. ft. in Charlotte. The portfolio was 63.6% leased to 20 tenants at the time of the transaction. The portfolio includes:

  • 929 Jay Street: An 84,919 sq. ft. creative office building with timber ceilings 19-foot windows, and ample outdoor/patio space.
  • 1018 Jay Street: Offers 69,774 sq. ft. of office and retail space, with steel truss and timber ceilings, skylights, and an open-air courtyard.
  • 800 Gesco Street: Comprises 92,530 sq. ft. of creative office and retail suites, showcasing impressive 24-foot, exposed barrel vault and steel truss ceilings, floor-to-ceiling windows, and six recently delivered speculative suites, three of which are leased.

CBRE advised the sponsorship on the financing from Barings.
