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.

SS&C Technologies Holdings, Inc. (Nasdaq: SSNC) today announced a definitive agreement to acquire Calastone, the largest global funds network and leading provider of technology solutions to the wealth and asset management industries, from global investment firm Carlyle. The purchase price is approximately £766 million (approximately US $1.03 billion), subject to certain adjustments.

Headquartered in London, Calastone operates the largest global funds network, connecting more than 4,500 of the world’s leading financial organizations across 57 markets. The acquisition is expected to close in Q4 2025, subject to regulatory approvals.

Calastone’s more than 250 staffers in London, Luxembourg, Hong Kong, Taipei, Singapore, New York and Sydney are expected to join SS&C Global Investor & Distribution Solutions, reporting to General Manager Nick Wright.

“We’re excited to welcome Julien, the Calastone team and their valued clients to SS&C,” said Bill Stone, Chairman and CEO of SS&C Technologies. “Together, we will create a more connected, automated, and intelligent global fund ecosystem — reducing complexity, enhancing client experience, and shaping the future of distribution and investment operations.”

The acquisition of Calastone reinforces SS&C’s commitment to transforming investment operations and bolsters SS&C’s ongoing geographic expansion.

This strategic alignment enables enhanced distribution, investor servicing, and operational scalability — empowering asset and wealth managers to innovate, diversify products, and deliver better outcomes for investors worldwide.

“We are pleased to be combining forces with SS&C in our joint mission to build the most comprehensive, intelligent and connected wealth and asset management ecosystem,” said Julien Hammerson, CEO of Calastone. “SS&C’s global scale and deep expertise across fund services and technology will enable us to accelerate innovation and deliver new digital capabilities to the market. We look forward to working together to deliver transformational services to asset and wealth managers and drive growth.”

Its well-established technology network represents a differentiated, automated offering and we believe the business is well-positioned to build upon its market position and business momentum. We are confident that SS&C is the right partner to continue Calastone’s success, and we look forward to watching the company thrive in its next phase.”
