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 a CFP® Professional Can Help You Manage Your Debt

By: NewsUSA

(NewsUSA) - Household debts are rising amid higher interest rates. The increase in rates is a major issue for all borrowers, at all ages and stages of life. A CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER professional can help you develop a strategy to manage your debts while still reaching your long-term financial goals. Here are four ways a CFP® professional can help:

Prioritize Payments

It is important to recognize that not all debt is created equal. The actual interest rate numbers differ, and so do the terms. A CFP® professional can guide you through the maze and come up with a plan to prioritize which debts should be paid off first, and which allow some wiggle room.

Prepare to Pay More Monthly

Higher interest rates generally mean higher monthly payments, unless you have a fixed-rate loan, like most mortgages and car loans. To offset these costs, think about ways to tweak your budget and save money in other areas. A budget review with a CFP® professional can help you identify ways to trim expenses that you might have missed.

Step Up Your Credit Score

Better credit scores earn more favorable interest rates when it comes to debt repayment. In the long run, improving your credit scores could save you as much as hundreds of thousands of dollars. Of course, poor use of credit will add to your debt, so be sure to use credit responsibly. Choose just a few cards, be aware of your credit limits and minimum payments, and pay your bills on time.

If you are new to credit and want to build a credit history, consider cards from a credit union, or from a gas company or department store. A CFP® professional can lay out some of the credit options available to you. Don’t forget to check your credit score periodically to identify anything suspicious that might indicate identity theft or credit card fraud.

Study Options for Student Loans

Tens of millions of households face another imminent debt burden as they prepare for student loan payments to restart. Individuals with student loans have had a three-year hiatus from repayments to help manage the financial stress of the pandemic. However, payments are set to resume in October 2023. These student loan repayments can make a significant impact on anyone’s debt management plans.

A CFP® professional can help you navigate all these different factors to manage your debt and accomplish your financial goals. Find your CFP® professional today.
