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.

How Accurate are Loan Payment Calculators?

Sponsored Content

There are countless loans on the market. Therefore, it’s important to compare your options and find the best loan for your particular situation. A loan calculator can make this process far easier and faster. But is it accurate? Keep reading to learn the answer to this question.

What is a loan calculator?

A loan calculator is a convenient online tool you can use to estimate your monthly payment. It’s based on a specific interest rate and repayment term. You can play around with various rates and terms to discover how different loan options will impact your monthly payment. A loan calculator can also show you how much interest you’ll pay over the life of a loan.

You can use a loan calculator before applying for or accepting a loan to help give you a better idea of the impact the loan may take on your finances. This way, you still have a chance to shop around or select another option to finance your purchase before signing any official documents.

Are loan calculators accurate?

As long as the information you enter is correct, loan calculators are pretty accurate. However, it’s essential to understand that there may still be a difference between a calculator’s estimate and what you actually qualify for from a lender.

For this reason, you should familiarize yourself with how these calculators work and use them to help you evaluate various loan providers. Don’t forget that while a longer term will result in a lower monthly payment, it will also cost you more in interest. On the other hand, a shorter team will come with a higher monthly payment but lead to greater interest savings over time.

Types of loans

Now that we’ve explained what loan calculators are and how they work, let’s go over the various types of loans you may apply for.

  • Home loans: Also known as mortgages, home loans are designed to help you cover the cost of a home. They usually come with fixed or adjustable rates and longer terms of 15, 20, or 30 years.
  • Car loans: Car loans are precisely what they sound like: loans you take out to purchase a car. Since they’re secured to the vehicle itself, a lender has the right to repossess it if you fail to make your payments.
  • Personal loans: With a personal loan, you can fund just about any expense and can be unsecured or secured. The most common uses for personal loans include debt consolidation, home improvement, and emergency expenses.
  • Student loans: Student loans are used to cover higher education costs like tuition and books. These loans are offered by the federal government and private lenders.

The Bottom Line

A loan calculator can be a valuable resource, no matter what type of loan you want to take out, whether it’s a home loan, car loan, or student loan. Loan calculators can help you explore different scenarios pertaining to your personal finances and help you figure out what the best option is for your budget.
