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.

Magnati Enables Businesses to Accept Contactless Payments on Their Own Phones with Technology from Fiserv

Businesses of all sizes will be able to use Android smartphones and tablets as contactless payment terminals

Magnati, a regional leader in the payment solutions industry, is enabling businesses of all sizes to accept contactless transactions of any value using their own Android smartphones and tablets as a payments terminal. This new capability will be available through a mobile app downloaded from the Google Play store and enabled by software point-of-sale (SoftPoS) technology from Fiserv, Inc. (NASDAQ: FISV), a leading global provider of payments and financial services technology solutions.

The new Magnati app enables businesses of any size to accept contactless payments

The new Magnati app enables businesses of any size to accept contactless payments

The new Magnati SoftPoS app allows businesses to offer an increasingly in-demand service as the use of contactless payments has grown in the United Arab Emirates. The app optimises the contactless customer experience by allowing consumers to pay in a quick, seamless and secure manner. According to a McKinsey survey of payments practitioners operating in the Middle East, 53% expect contactless cards to lead payment methods in the region in the next five years.

Importantly, Soft Point-of-Sale from Fiserv, the solution enabling the Magnati SoftPoS app, enables cardholders to enter their PIN on the screen, a capability known as PIN on glass or PIN on mobile. This means that businesses can accept contactless payments of any amount, rather than being restricted to contactless payment limits or needing a separate card reader.

“As digital payments become the norm, our new contactless payments app can facilitate digital inclusion, allowing businesses of any size to accept contactless payments and realise new growth opportunities,” said Ramana Kumar, Chief Executive Officer at Magnati. “We are bringing an additional value-added service to our customers so they can run their business better and offer a new customer experience.”

The Magnati SoftPoS app removes the installation and overhead maintenance costs of dedicated PoS hardware. It is particularly useful for businesses offering home delivery of food or retail items, as drivers can accept payments from their own device, without needing to purchase or maintain additional hardware.

Businesses can download the app from the Google Play store and start accepting cashless payments easily. The app enables contactless transactions from contactless cards, NFC-enabled mobile phones or NFC-enabled devices such as wearables and key fobs. Businesses can also manage refunds and cancellations, generate receipts and view transaction details.

“Magnati’s aim is to offer new and advanced digital acceptance solutions to its merchants and set a benchmark for the industry to follow,” said Umer Farooq, Managing Director & Head of Payments Platform at Magnati. “We are excited to launch this SoftPoS solution under the umbrella of our Payments as a Platform initiative, a state-of-the-art digital platform that offers a wide range of value-added solutions. We are delighted to have partnered with Fiserv to provide a seamless experience to our merchants. In the fast-changing payment industry, we will continue to deliver next-generation solutions to support businesses.”

“Businesses are looking for better ways to connect with their customers,” said Jossan Maalouf, head of Fiserv in the Middle East and Africa. “The mobile payments era is here, and it’s important that businesses of all sizes are able to take advantage of the opportunity to operate more efficiently and grow their sales as they accept payments from anywhere. Magnati is making all of this possible for their customers with the launch of their new contactless payments app.”
