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.

MSCI Advances Private Markets Strategy With New Solutions Built for General Partners

Private Asset and Deal Metrics and RCA Funds further demonstrate MSCI’s commitment to empower GPs with purpose-built, scalable, data-driven tools

MSCI Inc. (NYSE: MSCI) has launched two new data and analytics solutions, Private Asset and Deal Metrics and Real Capital Analytics (RCA) Funds, designed to provide General Partners (GPs) with deeper insights and enhanced investor engagement capabilities, enabling them to develop more effective strategies for capital formation and deployment across private asset and commercial real estate markets.

Private Asset and Deal Metrics is built on private company and deal-level data from more than 26,000 private equity buyout deals representing $2 trillion in net asset value1. The solution enables GPs to benchmark performance, validate investment themes and engage Limited Partners (LPs) with greater confidence.

RCA Funds delivers global intelligence on institutional real estate funds. It draws on commercial real estate profiles of over 1,600 GPs and 800 LPs and data on more than 8,000 real-estate funds2. The solution supports GPs’ fundraising by providing deep insights into LP investment criteria and also helps them strengthen investor relations through transparent fund performance for better reporting.

In the recent MSCI General Partner Survey, more than half of respondents said that they face difficulties finding attractive deals, while one third identified fundraising and capital flows as their top challenges. As GPs navigate this complex and increasingly competitive environment, these new solutions are designed to address critical gaps in data transparency, benchmarking and decision-making capabilities across the full capital investment lifecycle.

“GPs are operating under increasing pressure in what continues to be a challenging market environment, facing heightened competition for capital and deal-making as well as growing scrutiny from investors and regulators,” said Luke Flemmer, Head of Private Assets at MSCI. “Our goal is to deliver solutions that empower general partners to more clearly articulate their value, operate with greater efficiency and clarity and strengthen investor engagement. We are committed to building a robust suite of scalable tools, analytics and institutional-quality insights that drive client success and expand transparency across private markets.”

While MSCI continues to introduce innovative and tech-enabled solutions that serve the needs of all types of private market practitioners, these launches build on the firm’s ongoing commitment to supporting the GP community. These new solutions expand MSCI’s dedicated suite of products aimed at GPs, including Private Capital Intel, which allows clients to benchmark performance against one of the largest pools of private capital data with extensive coverage of historical profiles sourced directly from LPs, and the recent partnership with Intapp to deliver enhanced private capital market intelligence.
