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.

Columbia Threadneedle Investments Selects Three Firms for 2022 MassChallenge FinTech’s Start-up Accelerator Program

Columbia Threadneedle Investments today announced the selection of three innovative fintech start-ups for this year’s MassChallenge FinTech accelerator program. In working with these firms, Columbia Threadneedle, and its parent company Ameriprise Financial, hope to utilize new technologies in the areas of data analysis, data collection and automation.

The three start-ups are:

  • Util uses cutting-edge technology and a vast evidence base of peer-reviewed academic and scientific articles to map and measure how companies positively and negatively impact the UN Sustainable Development Goals and over 2,000 sustainability themes.
  • OnCorps provides intelligent automation solutions to increase efficiency and reduce risk within leading financial services firms.
  • Datia offers a data platform for sustainable finance that automates data collection and reporting on ESG for asset managers.

Jay Leopold, executive sponsor and head of North America Investment Risk at Columbia Threadneedle said: “Investment strategies that incorporate responsible investment practices require asset managers to collect and distill much more data into their processes today than in the past. We look to make innovative use of technology to transform this data into actionable investment insights that ensure we provide best-in-class products and services to our clients.”

“As a long-time participant in MassChallenge’s FinTech program, we are energized to collaborate with the fintech community to find new approaches to meet asset management’s ever-evolving challenges,” Leopold added.

Columbia Threadneedle is one of nine challenge partners in the 2022 program, which pairs financial services firms with enterprise-ready start-ups to accelerate outcomes-driven partnerships. This year, 25 start-ups were selected to solve challenges presented by the nine firms. The program runs from January to June 2022.

Columbia Threadneedle and Ameriprise have participated in the MassChallenge FinTech Program since 2019 and have completed successful proofs of concept with several fintechs, including ForwardLane, FiVerity, Cognicor and Alkymi. The collaboration between Columbia Threadneedle and Diffeo won MassChallenge’s first place award in 2019 in recognition of the successful collaboration between both firms. In addition, based on work completed during the 2020 program, Ameriprise recently extended its relationship with Cognicor to enhance its client support model through AI chatbots.
