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.

Federal Home Loan Bank of Atlanta Announces $55 Million Available Through 2024 Affordable Housing Program General Fund

ATLANTA, April 16, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Federal Home Loan Bank of Atlanta (FHLBank Atlanta) announced today that it will accept applications for its 2024 Affordable Housing Program (AHP) General Fund round starting June 27, 2024, through July 29, 2024. FHLBank Atlanta is making a record amount available since the program’s inception in 1990 – approximately $55 million – and applicants may apply for up to $1 million in grant funding per project to support the acquisition, construction, or rehabilitation of multifamily and single-family housing.

“Each year, the General Fund provides an opportunity for financial institutions to work with for-profit and nonprofit developers and community partners to improve access to affordable housing,” said FHLBank Atlanta President and CEO Kirk Malmberg. “The FHLBank System’s AHP General Fund is one of the largest sources of private funding for affordable housing in the country and our grants make a considerable impact within the communities across our district.”

FHLBank Atlanta will host a series of webinars for member financial institutions and the developer community, offering training on the application process. Webinar information and registration is available on the FHLBank Atlanta website. Sponsors and developers must work with a FHLBank Atlanta member financial institution to complete and submit the online application by the July 29 application deadline. Nonprofit, for-profit, and local government sponsors and developers can learn more by reviewing the AHP Implementation Plan for application guidelines and requirements.

“In 2024 alone, FHLBank Atlanta will disburse more than $100 million in grants for affordable housing and community development, and more than half of that is through our AHP General Fund,” said FHLBank Atlanta Senior Vice President and Director of Community Investment Services Tomeka Strickland. “Since the inception of the program in 1990, FHLBank Atlanta has awarded more than $866 million through the General Fund, helping to finance more than 134,000 housing opportunities for moderate, low- and very low-income households.”
