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.

Fujitsu Client Computing Limited Selects Blue Yonder to Transform Supply Planning and S&OP Capabilities

By: via Business Wire

The ability to forecast demand accurately, plan inventory correctly and improve planner efficiency is crucial for today’s manufacturing supply chain. That’s why Fujitsu Client Computing Limited, a leader in delivering world-changing technology, has embarked on a digital supply chain transformation journey using several Blue Yonder Planning solutions, including supply planning and sales & operations planning (S&OP) capabilities.

Fujitsu Client Computing was founded in 2016 and is a joint venture company owned by Fujitsu, Lenovo and Development Bank of Japan Inc. The company’s intention is to “Provide varied computing tools in the society to make our life better and comfortable." In 2021 alone, the company shipped 3 million PC units worldwide. Needing a supply chain planning capabilities upgrade to meet the demands of today’s constantly changing environment, Fujitsu Client Computing turned to Blue Yonder for the solution. Blue Yonder is the current supply chain solutions provider for Lenovo.

Once fully implemented, Blue Yonder’s Planning solutions will enable Fujitsu Client Computing to improve efficiency and flexibility to accommodate the current environment and business needs across its supply chain. Blue Yonder has been recognized as a Leader two consecutive times in the Gartner® Magic Quadrant™ for Supply Chain Planning Solutions1. In addition, Blue Yonder scored in the Top 10 for all 5 Use Cases in the 2022 Gartner Critical Capabilities for Supply Chain Planning Solutions report2.

“Based on the close collaboration with Lenovo to understand its deep supply chain practices on Blue Yonder’s Planning solutions, we knew that Blue Yonder offers the right capabilities Fujitsu Client Computing needs to continue creating valuable products that will benefit both our customers and business partners. Blue Yonder’s end-to-end capabilities will enable us to continuously innovate and improve our products, gain greater supply chain visibility and deliver an overall better experience for our customers,” said Takeda Hiroyasu, chief operating officer, Fujitsu Client Computing.

With Blue Yonder’s Planning solution, which is under the joint deployment by Blue Yonder and Lenovo, Fujitsu Client Computing will be able to improve its sales and operations planning (S&OP) process and consistently operate on a unified plan that is aligned to business strategy, by seamlessly incorporating all moving parts across the supply chain, balancing demand, supply, revenue, cost, and margin targets. With the advanced scenario supply planning capabilities, Fujitsu Client Computing can stage the right inventory throughout its distribution network, minimizing stock-outs while maximizing inventory turns and customer service levels, and gain strong return on its invested capital.

“Fujitsu Client Computing is continuously seeking to provide valuable products that help bridge the digital divide and to do that, they needed a more modern, intelligent, and connected supply chain solution. Our Planning solutions provide a scenario-based, boundaryless planning system that will guide Fujitsu Client Computing as it plans for demand and looks to improve profitability and business efficiencies,” said Antonio Boccalandro, president, APAC, Blue Yonder.
