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.

Upptec’s Claim Contents Valuation App Now Available in Guidewire Marketplace

Upptec’s add-on for ClaimCenter to streamline the claim contents valuation process improving the overall claims servicing experience for insurers and claimants alike

Upptec, a provider of automated claim solutions for all content within home as well as travel insurance, and Guidewire PartnerConnect Solution partner, and Guidewire Software, Inc. (NYSE: GWRE), the platform P&C insurers trust to engage, innovate, and grow efficiently, today announced that Upptec’s new Ready for Guidewire validated add-on is now available to ClaimCenter users in the Guidewire Marketplace.

Upptec Valuation for adjusters enables automated valuation for damaged goods in a claim. ClaimCenter users can now provide unbiased, quick, and transparent settlements to claimants, improving claimant experience and reducing claim costs. With this technology, adjusters can search Upptec’s product database to find and instantly assess the value of a claimant’s damaged item, determined using prices from local retailers. Using the insurer’s policies and depreciation rules, it automatically calculates the overall compensation for the claimant, reducing compensation variation. Upptec’s integration allows users to seamlessly access this technology through ClaimCenter, reducing cycle time and adjuster manual labor.

With Upptec’s ClaimCenter add-on, insurers can:

  • Seamlessly utilize Upptec’s valuation technology directly within ClaimCenter;
  • Instantly access automatic valuation for damaged items based on the specific local market;
  • Quickly create a summary of the claim, including the resulting compensation using policies specific to the insurer with fraud prevention possibilities;
  • Easily redo valuation using pricing from a different store if necessary.

“Guidewire Marketplace is a great opportunity to fast-track industry transformation through innovative partnership with peer industry leaders,” said Magnus Franck, chief executive officer, Upptec. “We are proud to be a Guidewire European partner and see great benefit in contributing to the ecosystem and enhancing innovation within Guidewire's solutions. We believe this will be a win-win not only for our collaboration with Guidewire, but insurers and the insurance industry as a whole.”

“We congratulate Upptec on the release of its add-on, now available in Guidewire’s Marketplace,” said Neil Betteridge, vice president, Strategy, Guidewire Software. “Obtaining valuations for a claimant’s damaged belongings was formerly a time-consuming process for insurers. Using Upptec’s straight-through processing in ClaimCenter, adjusters can automatically access valuations, reducing the time and money spent on a claim.”
