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 to Calculate Your Refinance Costs Before You Start

Sponsored Content: Refinancing your home can help you reduce your monthly payment, get a lower interest rate, change your term, and even let you tap your equity for cash. 

However, like purchase mortgages, you'll have to pay closing costs to get a refinance with most lenders. 

In this article, we'll review some typical refinancing closing costs and what you might pay. Then, we'll show you how to use the refinance calculator from Discover® to see if refinancing is the right decision for your financial goals. 

Common Refinancing Costs 

For most, closing costs can range from 2-6% of their refinancing loan amount.  

For example, a $100,000 refinancing loan will likely come with $2,000-$6,000 in closing costs.  

However, some lenders like Discover Home Loans offer refinancing with no closing costs. 

Below are a few fees built into that typical closing cost amount. Keep in mind that fees and their amounts may differ between lenders and vary by local laws. 

Application Fee 

Application fees can range from $75-$500, although some lenders don't charge them. They are illegal in some states, too. 

Origination/Underwriting Fee 

Origination/underwriting fees usually cost 0%-1.5% of the loan amount. This generally covers the cost of underwriting and other services needed to set up the loan. 

Appraisal 

Appraisals can vary in cost, but a good range is $300-$400 for single-family homes. An appraiser is hired by the lender to approximate the home's value, but you typically have to pay the cost of the appraisal. 

Credit Report Fee 

The credit report fee usually costs between $30-$50. Each credit report costs the lender money, and they often pull reports from all three credit bureaus to get a comprehensive view of your creditworthiness. 

Title Search/Insurance Fee 

Title search and insurance fees can cost $400-$900. This covers the cost of dealing with any potential ownership problems that come up while going through the refinancing process. 

A Refinance Calculator: The Best Way to Calculate Your Refinancing Costs 

Closing costs can add up, but the cost doesn't matter much if you save more money in the long run by refinancing. 

With a refinance calculator like the one from Discover Home Loans, you can calculate your savings over time and compare that against the closing costs. If you save more than you pay in costs, it might be worth it to refinance.
