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.

KBRA Releases Research – Texas School Vouchers May Pressure Public School Districts Over Time

By: via Business Wire

KBRA releases research discussing the potential impact of Texas' new Educational Savings Account (ESA) program (i.e., private school vouchers) on public school district credit quality.

Key Takeaways

  • The voucher program will provide around $10,000 annually for each eligible student toward private K-12 education and higher amounts for students with disabilities. Assuming $1 billion in expenditures for the program in the 2026-27 school year (SY) and a simple $10,000 allotment per student, the program would support around 100,000 students, which is about 1.6% of the approximately six million students enrolled in all forms of K-12 education across the state last year.
  • The Legislative Budget Board anticipates that the program could grow to $5 billion per year by fiscal year (FY) 2030, underscoring the potential for more substantial reductions in public school student enrollment over time. Actual outcomes will depend on the number of students who opt in, the level of funding appropriated for the program in future years, and how quickly private schools can expand their capacity.
  • Most voucher funding may initially go to students already outside of the public school system, but districts will lose enrollment-based funding for each incremental student that foregoes public school enrollment.
  • The state’s strong demographics should offset a portion of lost funding for many districts by stabilizing enrollment. However, schools lacking a strong competitive position could lose a meaningful number of students and enrollment-based funding over time.
  • KBRA does not anticipate that voucher-related enrollment losses will result in pronounced near-term credit deterioration for districts across the state, but the shift will compound existing pressures in the sector, driven by the ongoing depletion of federal pandemic funds and minimal inflation-adjusted increases in public school district funding in recent years.
