About Cabling Installation & Maintenance:

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.

TMC July 2025 Pulse of the Network survey finds mortgage lenders leaning into automation, leadership development, and product innovation to stay competitive

SAN DIEGO, Calif., July 28, 2025 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) — Amid one of the mortgage industry’s most prolonged stretches of cost pressure and market uncertainty, the latest Pulse of the Network survey from The Mortgage Collaborative (TMC) reports that lenders are responding with creativity and nimble thinking, anchored by a clear commitment to long-term resilience.

Conducted biannually, the Pulse of the Network taps the collective insight of TMC’s diverse national membership of independent mortgage banks (IMBs) and depositories. The July 2025 edition offers a real-time look at how lenders address rising origination costs, evolving compliance risks, and the challenge of developing talent in a hypercompetitive environment.

“Our members aren’t merely reacting to the market, they’re actively rethinking how to deliver, lead, and grow,” said Jodi Hall, president and CEO of The Mortgage Collaborative. “This survey shows the powerful role collaboration plays in helping lenders make confident, strategic decisions in uncertain times.”

Key Survey Highlights:

  • Automation is no longer optional. 100% of respondents reported plans to increase automation through 2026, specifically focusing on AI-powered customer platforms, API-driven verification tools, and digital closing solutions to reduce costs, improve borrower experience, and reduce the cost of producing a loan.
  • Leadership development is climbing the priority list. With teams operating leaner, lenders are investing in upskilling and succession planning to cultivate the next generation of industry leaders. This includes cross-functional training and a continued focus on driving their business based on operational KPIs.
  • Revenue diversification is a top strategy. Lenders are expanding their product offerings to include non-QM loans, Reverse mortgages, HELOCs, and DPA programs, to grow market share in a challenging rate environment and forge stronger builder relationships to capture purchase business.
  • Secondary market execution is under scrutiny. Lenders are improving loan sale processes and pricing flexibility while leveraging data analytics to forecast performance and reduce early payoff exposure.
  • Compliance remains complex and evolving. State-level oversight is taking center stage in compliance conversations, as lenders navigate a strategic balance between tech-enabled efficiencies and rigorous risk management.

“This Pulse confirms a central truth: in today’s mortgage industry, success belongs to those who share, adapt, and lead together,” Hall added.
