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.

Alaska Airlines Chooses T-Mobile US as Preferred Wireless Provider

By: via Business Wire

Alaska to migrate network wireless services to T-Mobile and partner with the Un-carrier to deliver 5G innovations the airline can use to elevate customer care

Today, Alaska Airlines, (NYSE: ALK) announced it has chosen T-Mobile (NASDAQ: TMUS) as its preferred wireless provider, uniting two Pacific Northwest-based companies with a common history of reinventing customer service and transforming their respective industries. Under the new agreement, Alaska will go all-in on T-Mobile by migrating the majority of their mobility business—including data lines, voice lines to the Un-Carrier. Alaska will leverage the power of T-Mobile’s cutting-edge nationwide 5G network to enhance the travel experience for millions of customers who fly Alaska every year.

With air travel returning to normal, Alaska is looking to take advantage of the high-bandwidth, low latency capabilities of 5G to optimize every aspect of the customer experience—from ticketing to check-in, on-time departures and arrivals, baggage tracking, and much more.

“As two Pacific Northwest-based companies, innovation is in our DNA,” said Alaska CEO Ben Minicucci. “We are excited to partner with T-Mobile to create a more seamless travel experience using T-Mobile’s next generation mobile solutions. The sky is the limit on what we will be able to create together for Alaska’s guests and employees.”

“Alaska is a lot like T-Mobile in some really important ways. Besides both being based in Seattle, Alaska and T-Mobile have a long history of challenging conventional thinking in our industries and pioneering new ways to use technological innovation to put customers first,” said Mike Sievert, CEO of T-Mobile. “T-Mobile has always fixed customer pain points in the wireless industry, and it’s inspiring to help translate that to other industries with likeminded partners like Alaska.”

T-Mobile’s game-changing nationwide 5G network also offers Alaska the opportunity to explore Advanced Network Services offerings, such as Multi-Access Edge Computing (MEC) and Private Networks to understand how these innovative technologies can improve customer experience and care. In an industry where there’s an incredible amount of data sharing in the airport—scanning baggage coming off planes, going onto planes, crews downloading flight plans, running plane diagnostics, and ordering food and beverage services between flights—seconds matter to the customer experience. That’s where services such as MEC, could be leveraged to process data locally, securely, and quickly. Leveraging over-the-wing, under-the-wing, and gate applications through MEC could enable airlines to provide ground and flight crews with the information they need to speed aircraft turnaround times, resolve gate issues, and streamline operations to provide an even better passenger experience.

This is just one leg of a much longer journey together with Alaska. Per the agreement, T-Mobile will provide Alaska with tens of thousands of data lines and voice lines. With a nationwide 5G network that extends from San Francisco to Wichita to Washington D.C. and beyond, T-Mobile offers 5G service that will connect Alaska’s crew even in rural and remote parts of the country.

Of course, this isn’t the final destination for Alaska and T-Mobile. As the new partnership reaches cruising altitude, Alaska and T-Mobile will focus on new capabilities, features, and perks specifically for passengers who use T-Mobile.
