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.

What to Expect from the Housing Market in 2023

Sponsored Content: It’s true that hindsight is 20/20, and that applies to investing, buying, and refinancing on a house. With worries over inflation and increasing interest rates, people may be more closely looking after their assets, including the homes they live in.

As a result of this turn inward, homeowners reconsidering their living situations are at an interesting crossroads: Do you try to refinance your mortgage to take advantage of potential benefits, do you look for ways to downsize, or do you wait for the housing market to restabilize?

What We Don’t Know

While it can be said that people lean toward market leeriness in uncertain times, making investments require some degree of risk, one way or another. There’s no way to know for certain how the future will unfold when considering market trends, historical data, and rising interest rates.

What We Know

During the COVID-19 pandemic, many people decided to renovate their homes to improve their stay-at-home experience and increase the value of their property. Others saw record low mortgage refinance rates from Discover® Home Loans and other home lenders as the perfect opportunity to take the next step in their financial lives.

Those low interest rates were and are based on the Effective Federal Funds Rate, commonly known as the Fed Rate. The Fed Rate is set by the Federal Reserve to balance inflation, and as it rises and falls, so do interest rates across the board.

However, the Fed Rate can be both proactive and reactive. Once fears of inflation rise, the feds often increase rates to combat it. When interest rates go up, people become less inclined to make major purchases like homes and cars, theoretically leading to market stabilization.

Times like these typically see less refinancing, because no one wants to pay higher rates; however, that doesn’t mean you might now be stuck with less-than-favorable terms before market stabilization happens.

When you’re paying off debts, you want to get the best rates possible, and many banks or lenders will provide you with fixed-rate, long-term quotes if it means earning your business. Since home ownership spans such a long road in an individual’s life, using market conditions to snatch a long-term, fixed-rate mortgage with a low APR can set homeowners up for great value for decades to come.
