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.

Neustar and TNS Partner to Provide Enterprises with Trusted Call Experiences Across Major Carrier Networks

By: via Business Wire

Strategic partnership establishes a single solution for enterprises to vet and authenticate phone calls – establishing a secure foundation for branded calling

Neustar, Inc., a TransUnion company, and Transaction Network Services (TNS) have announced a strategic partnership to provide enterprises the ability to vet and authenticate calls across the largest cross-carrier distribution in North America, through one single point of entry. Through direct network integration with major wireless and wireline carriers, this partnership helps enable secure, trusted calls to more than 360 million U.S. consumers – including the 36% of households that rely on landline phone service.

By providing the ability to both validate legitimate enterprises and authenticate calls through one platform, Neustar and TNS are helping protect subscribers from phone scams, support enterprise-to-consumer communication, and restore trusted calls to the telecom ecosystem. Components include:

  • Vetting and Registration: Leveraging a proven approach, Neustar and TNS established best practices to validate the legitimacy of enterprises, and confirm they have the right to use associated telephone numbers and caller data so they can more rapidly vet and register telephone numbers.
  • Authentication: Through a standards-based approach, this partnership provides new functionality to enterprises and contact centers so they can participate fully in the call authentication process. Using Out-of-Band SHAKEN, for instance, automates the end-to-end process of digitally validating calls.

“The new platform helps extend the call authentication trust chain and further strengthen the effectiveness of STIR/SHAKEN standards – establishing a strong foundation for branded calling and Rich Call Data (RCD),” said James Garvert, senior vice president of Communications Solutions at Neustar. “We encourage other companies to join us in adopting this approach to help restore trust in the phone channel.”

“Leading the initiative of restoring trust to voice is a prime directive for TNS and this partnership,” said Bill Versen, president of the Communications Market for TNS. "Finally, enterprises have a way to verify and authenticate outbound calls through a single point of entry. This unified, cross-carrier platform now sets the stage to enable enterprises to provide consumers the enhanced information that they’re looking for. Successfully combatting call spoofing and robocalls requires collaboration. We’d like to see other companies embrace this approach with us.”

Branded calling gives consumers a reason to answer calls by enabling enterprises to add their brand name, call reason, logo, and more to the mobile display. This capability delivers a superior customer experience and can help dramatically increase call answer rates, improve customer engagement, and drive revenue back to enterprises.
