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.

RingCentral® Enables Preferred Risk Insurance Services to Improve Customer Service as Call Volume Expands

Preferred Risk Insurance Services (PRIS), a professional services company and subsidiary of Warrior Invictus Holding Co., enables its employees and clients to stay better connected and productive with RingCentral, Inc. (NYSE: RNG), a leading provider of global enterprise cloud communications, video meetings, collaboration, and contact center solutions. With RingCentral MVP™ (Message, Video, Phone) and RingCentral Contact Center™, Preferred Risk Insurance will enable their employees to more efficiently respond to the needs of its fast growing customer base while giving employees the flexibility of working remotely.

Like many companies, Preferred Risk Insurance encountered significant challenges during the pandemic using legacy on-premises communications technology which caused call quality issues and broken customer experiences. It became vital for the company to upgrade to a cloud communications solution that would allow employees to call, message, and meet in one app. They also required a cloud contact center that would provide detailed routing and reporting capabilities, while enabling their agents to work from home.

“In risk insurance, there is no room for mistakes and delays. Because our call volume has grown tremendously, we chose RingCentral for its ability to scale and because it offers a tightly integrated communications solution that will enable us to continue providing top notch service to our customers,” said Sumit Roy, CIO for Preferred Risk Insurance Services. “Our prior solution did not allow our employees to work from home effectively. It became mission critical for us to choose a mobile-first cloud communication solution–which RingCentral delivers. Finally, RingCentral provides the most secure solution on the market – extremely important for Industry/Government Compliance in the insurance industry. With RingCentral, we have a win-win for both our customers and employees.”

Preferred Risk Insurance Taps Into Advanced Capabilities of RingCentral Contact Center

With RingCentral Contact Center, Preferred Risk Insurance will have the ability for their Claims Agents to take a recorded statement that can be added to an insurance claim, while also ensuring that they can still leverage end-to-end, automated call recordings for compliance purposes. In the next phase of their rollout of the RingCentral solution, Preferred Risk Insurance aims to address other needs by adding omnichannel interactions, quality analytics and other management tools, plus a custom CRM integration to streamline workflow and improve customer engagement.

"We're proud to be the provider of choice for Preferred Risk Insurance. Choosing our market leading UCaaS and CCaaS as an integrated solution will transform Preferred Risk's employee and customer experience,” said Carson Hostetter, chief revenue officer of RingCentral. “We look forward to working with them on the journey toward reduced costs, better scale, greater mobility, and reliability. Ultimately this will lead to happier employees, happier customers and greater success."
