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.

Buda

SAN ANTONIO, May 13, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Alterra IOS, a prominent player in the industrial outdoor storage (IOS) sector that has acquired over 300 sites nationwide, today announced the acquisition of two sites totaling 8.7 usable acres and 33,500 square feet of accompanying warehouse space in the Austin and San Antonio metropolitan areas. Located at 168 Park 35 Cove North in Buda and 5400 U.S. Highway 90 in San Antonio, the transactions underscore Alterra’s commitment to acquiring assets within high-growth economic hubs that attract national, creditworthy tenants.

“The Austin-San Antonio corridor remains a central focus of our acquisition strategy due to its economic and population growth,” said Mark Gannon, Senior Vice President of Acquisitions at Alterra IOS. “These acquisitions expand our capacity to support national tenants in a region known for its infrastructure, industrial momentum and business-friendly climate. We’re excited to continue exploring similar opportunities across Central Texas.”

The properties are strategically located within 25 miles of their respective downtowns, providing direct access to Central Texas’s extensive network of interstate and state highways, major rail lines and international airports. Each location is comprised of the following:

  • 5400 US Highway 90 is a 5.2 usable acre site that features 16,500 square feet of accompanying warehouse space. The fully fenced, improved site is located just 8 miles from downtown San Antonio and offers convenient access to I-90 E, TX-151 W, and a nearby multi-directional interchange connection to I-35 and I-10. The site is leased to a national building materials supplier in the utility industry. Carlos Marquez of Partners Real Estate facilitated the acquisition for Alterra.
  • 168 Park 35 Cove North is a 3.5 usable acre site with 17,000 square feet of accompanying warehouse space across multiple buildings. Located within a small industrial park in Buda, the property sits 22 miles from downtown Austin and offers immediate direct access to I-35. The property is occupied by a national provider of temporary fencing, portable restrooms and additional site services for construction, government and infrastructure projects. Jack Sallis of Stream Realty facilitated the transaction.
