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 Monthly CMBS Trend Watch

KBRA releases the June 2025 issue of CMBS Trend Watch.

Amid the geopolitical tensions in the Middle East and U.S. involvement, the CMBS private label market continued to demonstrate its strength, buoyed by high investor demand. The second quarter ended on an upbeat note, with 13 deals priced in June, including 12 single borrower transactions (SB), and one conduit, for a total issuance volume of $7.1 billion. On a year-over-year (YoY) comparison, year-to-date issuance through June was up 33.1%. Based on our current visibility, there could be as many as 19 deals that launch in July, including eight SB, seven conduit, three commercial real estate (CRE) collateralized loan obligations (CLO), and one Freddie Mac K-Series (Agency).

In June, KBRA published pre-sales for six deals ($3 billion), including two SB ($587 million), two conduits ($1.25 billion), one single-family rental ($778.5 million), and one small balance commercial (SC) ($392.3 million). June’s surveillance activity included rating reviews of 433 securities issued in connection with 43 transactions, including 24 conduits, 12 SB, four Agency, two CRE CLO, and one large loan. Of the 433 ratings, 387 were affirmed (89.4%), and 46 were downgraded (10.6%). In addition, 15 ratings were placed on Watch Downgrade. The report does not include 358 classes from 26 Velocity Commercial Capital (VCC) SC transactions for which details can be found here.

This month’s edition also highlights recent KBRA research publications that cover various topical issues.
