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.

Rubicon Point Partners Announces First Close of Rubicon Point Fund II

SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 07, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Rubicon Point Partners announced its first close of Rubicon Point Fund II, a real estate investment vehicle targeting special situation opportunities across the West Coast, with a strategic focus on the San Francisco Bay Area. Launched in January 2025, Fund II is property-type agnostic, providing the flexibility to remain nimble and opportunistic in today’s rapidly evolving market environment.

Fund II marks a return to Rubicon’s roots, investing in dislocated markets with the goal of generating outsized returns. Building on experience gained in the aftermath of the Global Financial Crisis, Rubicon aims to capitalize on current pricing dislocations fueled by the effects of COVID-19 and sharply rising interest rates.

“We believe today’s conditions offer some of the most compelling discounts on high-quality, cash-flowing real estate seen in the past three decades,” said Razmig Boladian, Managing Partner of Rubicon Point Partners. “This unique moment is further enhanced by the tailwinds driven by the growth of the AI sector and its rising significance in global economic and geopolitical impacts. As the U.S. maintains an early lead in the global AI race—with San Francisco and Silicon Valley at the forefront—we see a unique window of opportunity at the intersection of market disruption and innovation-driven demand.”

Rubicon is proud to welcome a diverse group of new limited partners alongside many returning investors. In a highly competitive fundraising environment, the firm is especially grateful for the continued trust and conviction of its investor base.

“We’re energized by the opportunities we’re investing in and the strength of our partnerships,” said Ani Vartanian, Managing Partner of Rubicon Point Partners. “This is a challenging capital-raising environment, but between the data we’re collecting, the opportunities we’re seeing, and the secular tailwinds we’re experiencing, we’re incredibly optimistic about this vintage and all we aim to deliver for our investors.”

Rubicon continues to pursue investments that align with its high-conviction thesis: targeting well-located, high-quality assets facing short-term complexity but offering long-term upside. With strong momentum and a robust pipeline of actionable deals, the firm looks forward to building on the success of this initial close as Fund II progresses throughout 2025.
