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.

Carter Bank and Federal Home Loan Bank of Atlanta Award More Than $2 Million to Support Affordable Housing in North Carolina

MARTINSVILLE, Va., Jan. 23, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Carter Bank (Nasdaq: CARE) and the Federal Home Loan Bank of Atlanta (FHLBank Atlanta) announced today a significant investment of $2.3 million in grant funding, designated for three separate projects that will create 168 new affordable housing units across North Carolina.

The funding, sourced from FHLBank Atlanta’s Affordable Housing Program (AHP) General Fund and administered through Carter Bank, a member of FHLBank Atlanta, reinforces a commitment to enhancing community development and addressing housing needs in the region.

Developers Wynnefield Forward, LLC and Workforce Solutions, LLC identified a need for more safe, affordable housing in Asheboro, High Point and Salisbury, North Carolina. After securing sites and arranging initial financing, the organizations had gaps in funding due to the rising cost of construction materials and labor. They worked with Carter Bank to apply for grant funding from FHLBank Atlanta, receiving the final critical funding of $2.3 million to move ahead with the projects.

  • In High Point, Walnut Ridge, sponsored by Wynnefield Forward, LLC, will receive $900,000 for the purchase and construction of 60 multifamily rental units.
  • In Salisbury, Pinnacle Ridge, also sponsored by Wynnefield Forward, LLC, will receive $545,000 for the construction of 60 multifamily rental units.
  • In Asheboro, Memorial Square, sponsored by Workforce Solutions, LLC, will receive $848,000 for the construction of 48 multifamily rental units.

Each property will serve low-to-moderate income residents and offer amenities and services such as annual vaccinations, health care screenings, educational workshops, and computer labs. Construction on all three projects is scheduled to begin this spring.

“Carter Bank is committed to creating opportunities for people, businesses, and communities to prosper and these projects reach all three of those groups,” Carter Bank SVP and Regional Market Executive Seth D. Moore said. “We know that right now, our communities – and those across the nation – need more affordable housing.

“We are proud to work with FHLBank Atlanta to disburse this funding to local projects that expand the availability of multifamily rental housing in North Carolina.”

FHLBank Atlanta’s General Fund provides grants annually to assist in the acquisition, construction, rehabilitation, or preservation of affordable housing projects. In December 2024, FHLBank Atlanta announced 66 grant recipient winners of its 2024 program, which allocated a total of $55 million to support the development and repair of more than 4,200 affordable housing units.

“Our members like Carter Bank are key to ensuring the success of our affordable housing programs,” said FHLBank Atlanta President and CEO Kirk Malmberg. “Through this partnership with Carter Bank, three important projects can come to fruition to improve lives and strengthen local communities.”
