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.

With Fewer Opportunities, Auto Lenders in Canada Need to Deliver on Value Proposition, J.D. Power Finds

By: via Business Wire

Ford Credit and TD Auto Finance Each Rank Highest in Two Segments

As supply-chain issues affect available inventory at auto dealerships in Canada, it also means fewer new- and used-vehicle transactions during which lenders can provide a high level of service to dealers and deliver on their value proposition. According to the J.D. Power 2022 Canada Dealer Financing Satisfaction Study,SM released today, overall satisfaction increased across all four segments in this year’s study—despite the decline in new-vehicle transactions.

“Dealers are looking for a seamless, speedy interaction with a lender, and lenders need to be laser-focused on satisfying that need—especially when the volume of transactions is reduced,” said Patrick Roosenberg, director of automotive finance intelligence at J.D. Power. “Even with increased automation in the approval and funding processes, lenders must find a way to differentiate themselves from other lenders, whether it’s system-related or actions taken by funding, retail credit or sales reps.”

Historically, on-site visits have been considered an essential cornerstone in developing and maintaining dealer-lender relationships. However, the study shows that just 4% of dealers say on-site visits are their preferred method of contact with their sales rep and may not lead to additional opportunities. “With dealer preference shifting towards phone, email and text interactions—and away from onsite visits—sales reps need to know which channel a dealer prefers to be more effective in a hyper-competitive market. In other words, the right message through the right channel at the right time.”

Study Rankings

Ford Credit ranks highest in the retail—captive segment with a score of 919 (on a 1,000-point scale). Hyundai Motor Finance (912) ranks second and Kia Motors Finance (909) ranks third. The segment average is 895.

In the retail—non-captive prime segment, TD Auto Finance ranks highest for a fifth consecutive year, with a score of 929. Scotiabank (914) ranks second. The segment average is 905.

In the retail—non-captive non-prime segment, TD Auto Finance ranks highest with a score of 919. The segment average is 913.

In the lease segment, Ford Credit ranks highest with a score of 918. Hyundai Motor Finance (908) ranks second and Honda Financial Services (904) ranks third. The segment average is 873.

The 2022 Canada Dealer Financing Satisfaction Study, now in its 24th year, captures 6,919 finance provider evaluations across the four segments from new-vehicle dealerships in Canada. The study was fielded in February-March 2022.
