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.

BELL to Integrate and Evaluate Allison’s Newest Off-Highway Transmission for Upgraded Articulated Dump Truck

Based on Allison’s proven 4000 Series on-highway transmission, TerraTran is a purpose-built variant for off-highway applications

Allison Transmission, a leading designer and manufacturer of conventional and electrified vehicle propulsion solutions and the largest global manufacturer of medium- and heavy-duty fully automatic transmissions for commercial and defense vehicles, is pleased to announce a partnership with Bell Equipment Group Services (BELL) to integrate and evaluate the Allison TerraTran™ in the next generation of BELL’s articulated dump trucks.

“BELL and Allison have a long-standing partnership based on shared values and a proven history of innovation and reliability,” said Tristan du Pisanie, General Manager of Product Development and OEM Marketing at BELL. “We look forward to evaluating TerraTran in our vehicles, as part of our effort to deliver enhanced drivability, gradeability and maneuverability for BELL customers, while maintaining the durability that Allison transmissions are known for.”

A variant of Allison’s proven 4000 Series™ on-highway transmission, the TerraTran is purpose built for off-highway applications such as articulated dump trucks, mobile crane, and wide-body mining dump trucks. TerraTran was developed based on voice of customer input, which indicated a need for the proven reliability and durability of Allison’s 4000 Series transmission, but with the increased horsepower, torque and gross vehicle weight (GVW) capability needed for off-highway applications, while also adding fast reverse capability.

“Allison has established a successful relationship with BELL over the past 25 years and we look forward to continuing our longstanding partnership through the integration of our latest propulsion solution for BELL’s evaluation,” said Kartik Ramanan, Executive Director, Global Off-Highway Sales, Customer Support and Service Engineering at Allison Transmission. “Purpose built for global construction and mining markets, TerraTran leverages Allison’s more than 65 years of experience moving earth, minerals and precious metals around the world where Allison Automatics have proven themselves in some of the most challenging conditions imaginable.”

Allison’s TerraTran has maximum power capability of up to 800 horsepower, and torque capability up to 3200 newton meters, dependent upon the application in which it is deployed. TerraTran also features seven forward and two reverse speeds. With the additional fast reverse, TerraTran delivers improved productivity and optimized vocational efficiency.
