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 Showcases Advanced Propulsion Technology at Modern Day Marine Expo

Allison Transmission’s propulsion solutions support the U.S. Marine Corps in its mission to increase fuel efficiencies and mitigate logistics risk in contested environments.

Allison Transmission, a leading designer and manufacturer of conventional and electrified vehicle propulsion solutions for tactical wheeled and tracked defense vehicles as well as medium- and heavy-duty commercial vehicles, will be exhibiting its latest propulsion technology at the 2022 Modern Day Marine Expo from May 10-12, 2022, which will take place at the Walter E. Washington Convention Center in Washington, D.C.

Allison Transmission propulsion solutions are featured in every major tactical wheeled vehicle platform used by the U.S. Marine Corps larger than a High Mobility Multipurpose Wheeled Vehicle (HMMWV). From the Joint Light Tactical Vehicle (JLTV) to the Medium Tactical Vehicle Replacement (MTVR) and Logistics Vehicle System Replacement (LVSR), the Marine Corps trusts the world-class reliability and performance of Allison transmissions. The Amphibious Combat Vehicle (ACV), the Corps’ next-generation vehicle designed to move Marines from ship to shore, is equipped with the powerful Allison 4800SPTM transmission designed to provide ease of operation, superior reliability and torque to take on challenging surf and complete a long swim from ship to shore.

In addition, when the Marine Corps sought to improve fuel economy in their workhorse MTVR, Allison responded by providing more fuel-efficient software settings and a means for the Marine Corps to deploy the changes throughout the fleet. Allison’s FuelSense® 2.0 is an advanced set of software and electronic controls that deliver quantifiable fuel savings of up to 6% without sacrificing performance. Key features such as Neutral at Stop and DynActive® Shifting use a learning algorithm to achieve an ideal balance between fuel consumption and performance by automatically selecting the most efficient shift point. Together, these features optimize efficiency and performance while maintaining the traditional Allison advantages of quality, reliability, durability, and productivity.

In a briefing to the U.S. House of Representatives on December 2, 2021, Lieutenant General Edward Banta, Deputy Commandant, Installations and Logistics, underscored the importance of fuel efficiency and described how the Marine Corps has been able to reduce the demand on fuel with their existing platforms. “We’ve made some successes there with software updates to our MTVR fleet that yielded 10-15% efficiency improvements in current fuel sources,” said Lt-Gen Banta. Allison’s FuelSense 2.0 contributed to these improvements.

“Allison Transmission’s brand promise is to provide the most reliable and valued propulsion solutions in the world to enable our customers to work more efficiently. Allison is proud to support the Marine Corps expeditionary force capable of littoral operations in contested environments by maximizing mobility and reducing logistical demand,” said Dana Pittard, Vice President for Defense Programs, Allison Transmission.
