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.

Allison Transmission Expands ONA Defense Service Network to Improve Access to Localized Service and Support

Allison Transmission, a leading designer and manufacturer of conventional and electrified vehicle propulsion solutions for tactical wheeled and tracked defense vehicles, today announced plans to expand its tracked defense service network to improve access to service and support for end users Outside North America (ONA).

Leveraging its extensive commercial vehicle service network of more than 1,400 independent distributor and dealers worldwide, Allison will collaborate with its existing channel partners to grow its network of authorized defense distributors for Allison’s cross-drive transmission products. This will allow end users to have Allison transmissions for tracked combat vehicles such as the X1100 SeriesTM and X200 SeriesTM serviced in their own locale quickly and more efficiently, which will reduce the overall cost and vehicle downtime for maintenance.

“We’ve recently teamed up with multiple customers across Asia, Australia, Europe, the Middle East and Africa to provide reliable, durable propulsion systems for the large, fielded population of tracked defense vehicles across the globe, which represents a growth opportunity for our business,” said Dana Pittard, Vice President, Defense Programs, Allison Transmission. “The expansion of our defense service network is designed to support the significant population of wheeled and tracked combat vehicles equipped with Allison transmissions.”

Allison has currently established contracts with seven of its channel partners to begin selling defense parts in their respective regions, including Carlin in Egypt, DGS in Germany, Drive Line Systems Turkey Otomotiv Ltd. in Turkey, IM Transmission AB in Sweden, Machinery Oy in Finland, Penske Australia Pty. Ltd. in Australia and Saudi Diesel Equipment Company in Saudi Arabia.

“As our partnerships with defense customers continue to evolve, we’re committed to improving the availability of parts and ensuring they have access to localized service and support through Allison’s global customer support network,” said Brian Geiselhart, Managing Director, Global Channel, Aftermarket & Warranty, Allison Transmission. “We’re proud to establish agreements with seven of our existing channel partners, and we look forward to continuing to grow our network of Allison Authorized defense service locations to meet the needs of our customers.”

Allison’s ONA defense network will provide service and support for the company’s cross-drive propulsion systems including the X200 Series transmission designed for light to light-medium tracked vehicles as well as the X1100 Series transmission developed for heavy-tracked combat vehicles. The X1100 Series is the propulsion system of choice for combat vehicles including the U.S. Army’s Abrams Main Battle Tank.
