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.

Comdata Launches Digital Lumper Payment Solution for Fleets Nationwide

Comdata’s cutting-edge technology improves efficiency and driver experience with frictionless payment capabilities

Comdata Inc., a FLEETCOR company and world leader in payment innovation, announced the evolution of its on-demand warehouse payment capabilities. The new solution digitizes and automates the capture and delivery of lumper payment receipts without driver interaction. It is the next generation of Comdata’s Comchek, which provides warehouse locations and fleets an efficient and modernized system to accept lumper payment without driver interaction through a mobile device.

Comdata’s new lumper payment tool reduces the time-consuming manual process that has frustrated fleets, drivers, merchants, and shippers for decades by enabling warehouse locations to digitally accept any of Comdata’s payment methods (Fleet Card, Express Code, Comchek, OnRoad and Virtual Card). As a result of these integrated merchant partnerships, carriers, warehouse merchants, and drivers can now benefit from streamlined mobile payment capabilities that reduce friction and payment delays. To add more control to the lumper payment process, Comdata has also enabled additional location-based authorization controls.

Eric Dowdell, President of Comdata’s North American Trucking division comments, “Comdata has created a win-win for the industry by digitizing the lumper pay process, which has historically been a point of friction for fleets and merchants. We’re bringing our customers more transparency, control, and a more simplified driver experience within a broad acceptance network.”

As a pioneer in innovative technologies for the transportation industry, Comdata has led with a wide array of payment products and capabilities that include Comchek, Express Cash, OnRoad, Virtual Card, and Comchek Mobile – all solutions designed to enable carriers and drivers to quickly make on-demand lumper payments over the road.

“The trucking industry is moving forward and embracing digital transformation,” continues Dowdell. “Our goal is to provide our customers with the most secure, reliable, and efficient mobile payment capabilities that get drivers back on the road faster. Our solution minimizes the headaches and delays associated with legacy, manually processed lumper payments. A greater experience overall promotes driver retention and greater profitability in the long-term.”

Since 2020, Comdata has doubled down on its efforts on secure mobile payment capabilities that improve the overall driver experience. Comdata remains committed to pushing the envelope in fleet payments and continuing to drive the industry’s journey towards digital transformation.
