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.

New Capabilities Empower System Administrators to Do More With the Qumu Video Engagement Platform

Qumu Corporation (Nasdaq: QUMU), a leading provider of cloud-based enterprise video technology, today unveiled the latest capabilities for the Qumu Video Engagement Platform that together provide system administrators with improved monitoring and management capabilities. The enhanced capabilities are part of the company’s quarterly product rollout.

The Qumu Video Engagement Platform is a SaaS-based enterprise video platform that helps global enterprises securely create, manage, deliver, experience and analyze live and async video at scale.

Platform Analytics Provide Holistic View of All Platform Activity

The latest release of the Qumu Video Engagement Platform adds Platform Analytics capabilities, providing administrators with insight into platform performance via a dashboard-like view of metrics including capacity, total views, quality levels, storage and bandwidth consumption. For example, the capacity section shows aggregated storage and bandwidth consumption for all assets on the platform. As a result, administrators are better equipped to manage their video content for a better viewer experience and to plan for platform capacity usage.

“Our Platform Analytics strengthen the ability of administrators to efficiently manage overall platform health and security,” said Andi Mann, Chief Technology Officer, Qumu. “Administrators now have easy access to a holistic view of everything going on – where traffic is coming from, delivery method distribution, viewer experience relative to bit rate available for delivery, and more. While our Content Analytics provide this kind of information for individual assets, our Platform Analytics aggregate this information for all assets on the platform, providing a holistic view of platform usage.”

User and Content Management Capabilities Streamline Routine Platform Administration

Qumu has also added new User Management capabilities to the platform that help administrators manage security, measure engagement and monitor capacity. The new enhancements provide additional visibility into user status. For example, the platform will now automatically classify users who have not logged in to the platform for an administrator-specified period as “inactive.” Similarly, administrators can identify users who have received an authentication notice but have not yet registered a password. This makes it easier for administrators to proactively manage available seats and licenses.

Automated Queue Management Prevents Viewer Lockouts

A new backend feature in the latest release of the Qumu Video Engagement Platform addresses the natural congestion that can occur when thousands of viewers join a live event just before it commences. This queue management feature transparently and automatically keeps viewers in the queue to be authenticated and admitted to an event on a first come, first served basis and without generating any time-out or other error messages to viewers in queue. “For customers hosting very large-scale, live, online events, this capability is critical to ensuring a flawless viewer experience,” said Mann.

Mann said Qumu has further improvements in User and Content Analytics planned for subsequent releases of the Qumu Video Engagement Platform. “Workplaces have been permanently transformed by the pandemic,” added Mann. “As remote and hybrid work becomes the norm, the need for an enterprise-grade video platform that can provide the security, performance, features and ease of administration of our platform has never been greater.”
