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.

Top Ships (NASDAQ: TOPS) Secures Time Charter Employment Contract With Favorable Rates, Updates Revenue Backlog to $280 Million

Top Ships, Inc. (NASDAQ: TOPS) is engaged as an international shipping company, which utilizes modern, fuel efficient, “eco” tanker vessels. Shares of the shipping company are jumping 55% through early trading on Monday, February 13, 2023. Over the past three months, Top Ships has seen average daily volume of 2.98 million shares. However, volume of 26.38 million shares or dollar volume of around $49.59 million, has already exchanged hands through early trading.

Shares of Top Ships are surging after the company announced that it has entered into a time charter employment contact with a “high-quality counterparty” for the company’s product/chemical tanker M/T Eco Marina Del Rey. The new time charter will begin immediately following the expiration of the current contract during the first quarter of 2024. The new contract will also have a firm duration of three years with an additional year option available to the charterer. Top Ships expects to generate revenue of $22.4 million from the contract and $30.6 million if the charterer exercises its fourth-year option.

With the new time charter in consideration, Top Ships’ currently-contracted projected charter coverage is already full for 2023 and nearing full capacity for 2024. The follow charter coverage:

Year Operating fleet
2023 100%
2024 80%
2025 29%
2026 25%
2027 15%
2028 to Q1 2037 13%”

Evangelos Pistiolis, the President, Chief Executive Officer and Director of the Company, said: “We are very happy to have concluded this new fixture of M/T Eco Marina Del Rey more than a year ahead of the expiry of its present employment and at a daily rate which is about 36% higher than the current rate, thereby taking advantage of the strong rates prevailing in the current tanker market. After considering this fixture, the total gross revenue backlog for the firm time charter period of our operating vessels, as of December 31, 2022, stands at about $259 million, increasing to about $280 million when adding the 50% of our joint venture vessels.
