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.

Recession-Proof Your Future: Smart Moves for Financial Confidence

By: NewsUSA

(NewsUSA) - Tips from Edelman Financial Engines (EFE) to help you stay secure, no matter what the economy throws your way.

When deciding what actions to take in the face of potential recession, it’s important to remember this: You don’t control inflation. You don’t control GDP. And you don’t control any of the policy decisions that could lead to a recession.

But you do control your own financial plan. These are all steps you should take regardless of the economic environment, but they become even more important when uncertainty is high.

  1. Diversify your portfolio – Diversification should be a cornerstone of any investment plan, and the goal is to reduce portfolio risk and optimize returns. Having exposure to better-performing investments doesn’t guarantee positive returns, but it does help dampen overall portfolio losses if we enter a bear market.
     
  2. Check your emergency fund – The ideal amount you should have in your emergency fund to carry you through a potential job loss depends on several factors, including how at-risk your job is, how reliant your household income is, and how much of your budget is discretionary. This is a great time to make sure you have an appropriate amount saved in liquid assets.
     
  3. Hold off on spending – The more money you have available, the calmer you’re likely to feel about a potential economic downturn. You might want to wait on big nonessential decisions that would eat into your liquidity, like buying a second home, retiring early or paying off large debts.
     
  4. Increase your income – Consider upskilling at your current job, pursuing a promotion or starting a side business.
     
  5. Look at your tax strategies – Recessionary environments can trigger permanent or temporary changes in tax regulations, to stimulate the economy. But tax planning should always be part of your financial plan, and it should happen all year long, not just during tax season or when something changes. If you haven’t met with a tax professional and a financial planner to talk about foundational tax strategies that make sense for you, do that now.
     
  6. Make sure you are getting good rates on your cash – High-yield savings accounts, CDs and money markets generally offer higher rates than bank accounts. Take advantage of them.

Bottom line: The economy may be uncertain. Your plan doesn’t have to be. Start building financial confidence at www.edelmanfinancialengines.com.
