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.

Down Payment Resource receives ICE Mortgage Technology’s 2025 Innovation Award for Technology Partner of the Year

News Source: Down Payment Resource

The recognition highlights DPR's integration with Encompass, which helps lenders connect homebuyers with homebuyer assistance programs

ATLANTA, Ga., Feb. 27, 2025 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) — Down Payment Resource (DPR), the housing industry’s leading technology for connecting homebuyers with homebuyer assistance programs, today announced that it has been named the 2025 ICE Innovation Technology Partner of the Year by Intercontinental Exchange, Inc. (ICE), a leading global provider of data, technology and market infrastructure.

The ICE Innovation Awards recognize industry leaders pushing the envelope by creating extraordinary solutions for housing professionals in partnership with ICE Mortgage Technology.

DPR’s integration with Encompass® by ICE Mortgage Technology debuted during ICE Experience 2024. Available on the Encompass Partner Connect (EPC) platform via APIs, the integration makes it easier for lenders to support homebuyers with the nation’s 2,400-plus down payment assistance (DPA) programs. Using DPA can lower the borrower’s loan-to-value (LTV) ratio by an average of 6%, helping more low-to-moderate income (LMI) borrowers qualify for a mortgage.

DPR’s integration with Encompass embeds operational support for DPA programs directly into core loan production systems, arming lending staff with the information they need to confidently offer and manufacture these programs. Based on declarations and loan application data, borrowers are automatically matched with eligible company-approved DPA programs. LOs are presented with program information, such as benefit amounts and eligibility requirements, so they can advise borrowers on their DPA options and guide them through program-specific processes. Also, program selections are automatically communicated downstream to underwriters by translating program requirements into importable loan conditions, making them easier to manage.

“We are extremely pleased ICE has shined such a bright light on this integration, which addresses a long-standing gap in making DPA program information accessible within the LOS so loan officers can help more borrowers take advantage of DPA opportunities,” said DPR Founder and CEO Rob Chrane. “As the only partner in the network providing this critical service, DPR is playing a critical role in helping lenders make homeownership more accessible for first-time and LMI buyers.”

Encompass Partner Connect enables the integration of key third-party products and services with ICE Mortgage Technology solutions. ICE does not own, control, nor endorse any specific industry participant or the product/service provided. Loan originators and servicers are responsible for vetting, selecting, and contracting with the providers of their choosing.
