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 $50 Million Available Through 2025 Affordable Housing Program General Fund

ATLANTA, March 20, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Federal Home Loan Bank of Atlanta (FHLBank Atlanta) will allocate $50 million through its 2025 Affordable Housing Program (AHP) General Fund, which opens for applications on April 21, 2025. Developers and housing organizations partner with a FHLBank Atlanta member financial institution to apply for grant funding to support affordable housing projects that involve the purchase, construction and rehabilitation of owner-occupied, rental, or transitional housing.

This year, FHLBank Atlanta is increasing the maximum subsidy amount per project to $1.25 million, up from $1 million in 2024, given the current market environment of higher construction costs and home prices.  

“Each year we offer the AHP General Fund to provide much needed support for the development of affordable housing, and we are pleased to work with our members to distribute grants to worthwhile projects across our district,” said FHLBank Atlanta President and CEO Kirk Malmberg. “Importantly, our funds assist both for-profit and non-profit developers and community organizations to increase single family and multifamily affordable housing inventory.”

AHP General Fund applications will be accepted through May 22, 2025. A one-time registration is required by May 9, 2025 for all first-time AHP project sponsors. Visit the FHLBank Atlanta website for information on registration as well as webinars detailing the application process, scoring and financial guidelines.

“The General Fund plays a vital role in addressing housing challenges by funding a range of projects from new construction to adaptive reuse and expansion initiatives,” said FHLBank Atlanta Director of Community Investment Services Tomeka Strickland. “We look forward to another successful year of collaboration with our members and community partners to drive meaningful, lasting change in the housing sector.”
