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.

IFR Executive Roundtable at Automate 2022 to Highlight “How Robotics and Automation Are Transforming North American Economy”

By: via Business Wire

Co-sponsored by the International Federation of Robots (IFR) and Association for Advancing Automation (A3), the June 7 panel features executives from FANUC America, Teradyne, UPS, Zebra and NVIDIA

At Automate 2022 Show and Conference in Detroit next week, robotics industry leaders will discuss how robotics and automation are transforming the North American economy in an executive roundtable co-sponsored by the International Federation of Robotics (IFR) and the Association for Advancing Automation (A3). Speakers for the roundtable, scheduled June 7 from 10:30 a.m. – 12 noon ET, include:

Robert Huschka, the vice president of education strategies at A3, will moderate the roundtable. “Companies across North America are deploying robotics and automation at record rates as they continue to face labor shortages, increasing demands and a disrupted supply chain,” Huschka said. “The industry leaders we’ve assembled for this panel have had a front-row seat—during turbulent times—to the advantages that automation has brought to an expanding range of industries. Their insights and experiences will be extremely valuable for all in attendance.”

IFR, which has sponsored executive roundtables at Automate since 2011, expects an invested audience as Automate returns to an in-person show for the first time since 2019. “Manufacturers and business leaders alike consistently flock to Automate to learn about the latest innovations to help them improve their businesses,” said Milton Guerry, IFR president. “With the list of industry leaders we’ve compiled for this roundtable, we expect those attending will not only learn a great deal about how robotics and automation is transforming the North American economy, but how they can transform their individual business as well.”

Roundtable Speakers Bring Decades of Experience in Business and Automation to Discussion:

Cicco: The president and CEO of FANUC America is responsible for all of the company’s operations in North and South America. He joined FANUC in 1999 and has held a variety of management positions over the years, including software/controls manager and district sales manager at the company’s Southern California facility. Before joining FANUC, Cicco served as lead automation engineer for Northrop Grumman in the Automation and Information Systems group.

Smith: As president of Teradyne’s Industrial Automation Group, Smith oversees Universal Robots, MiR and AutoGuide. He was previously the president of the Semiconductor Test Business, Teradyne’s largest operating segment. Smith began his career at Raytheon as a test engineer and held numerous engineering and management roles in the semiconductor test industry before joining Teradyne in 2006.

Brown: The global director of research and development for UPS has more than 23 years of experience in multiple areas of package sortation and logistics. At UPS, he helps develop new material handling solutions and is on a team hand selected by the CIO to develop the future state for UPS.

Wise: The vice president of robotics automation at Zebra Technologies joined Zebra in 2021 through the acquisition of Fetch Robotics, where she was the CEO. Wise was the second employee at Willow Garage where she led a team of engineers developing next-generation robot hardware and software, including ROS, the PR2, and TurtleBot. She serves as the chair of the IFR Service Robot Group, as a robotics board member for A3, and on the MHI Roundtable Advisory Committee.

Talla: As vice president and general manager of autonomous machines at NVIDIA, Talla is responsible for deploying AI technology in devices such as factory robots, commercial drones and video analytics.
