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.

Performant and CAQH Announce Strategic Partnership

Performant Healthcare Solutions (Nasdaq: PFMT) (Performant), a leading provider of technology-enabled payment integrity, eligibility, and related analytics services, and Council for Affordable Quality Healthcare (CAQH), an industry alliance of nearly 1,000 health plans, 2 million providers, and other healthcare stakeholders working to solve healthcare business challenges, today announced a partnership to improve payment integrity and coordination of benefits (COB) programs for health plans, including regional and community-based health plans. This initiative reflects both organizations’ commitment to driving savings, claims accuracy, and administrative simplification.

The partnership leverages Performant’s proprietary software platform and services, and CAQH’s one-of-a-kind registry of member coverage information to enable participating health plans to identify third-party healthcare coverage before paying claims. This prospective approach improves payment accuracy and delivers significant savings for health plans within months. Both organizations have a long history of improving payment accuracy for health plans and providers, and saw an opportunity to provide regional and community-based health plans more tailored support.

“We are excited that our partnership with CAQH will enable Performant to help more health plans realize the incredible value of our COB solutions,” stated Simeon Kohl, president at Performant. “As part of broader payment integrity services, Performant will support health plans with COB implementations, provide comprehensive data services, and serve as an extension of the plan’s own technical and operations teams to help recognize savings that would otherwise be lost.”

“When more health plans integrate robust coordination of benefits into their operational and financial strategies, the whole industry benefits from avoided cost and inaccuracy,” said Tyler Ford, Vice President of Strategy for CAQH. “Performant shares our mission and this partnership will complement our efforts to coordinate patient benefits, reduce claims errors, and save costs for health plans serving millions of members across the country.”
