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.

“We’re excited to have Jay join us. His expertise across so many areas of banking and the markets that we serve will help us continue to improve our customer experience and grow the business,” said Howard Hammond, head of the Consumer Bank for Fifth Third. “Jay brings a deep understanding of our communities and a commitment to our purpose.”

Plum will play a leadership role in the Bank’s digital mortgage initiative. In fall of 2020, Fifth Third partnered with Blend to offer a simple, seamless online home financing experience. Now, more than nine out of 10 mortgage applications are submitted digitally. Since launching the new digital experience, the average customer satisfaction score has increased while the average time to fund a loan has decreased.

The Bank is working to digitize even more parts of the overall homebuying experience, giving customers control, choice and transparency along the journey. The solution also enables them at any given point to collaborate with one of our mortgage loan originators.

“I’m excited to join a bank committed to serving its community and delivering a best-in-class homebuying experience,” Plum said.

Plum, who has decades of experience in banking, most recently served in consumer finance leadership roles, where he was responsible for mortgage, consumer, direct and credit card lending. Plum earned his bachelor’s degree from Colgate University and his master’s in business administration from the Owen Graduate School of Management at Vanderbilt University.
