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.

Simpro accelerates digital transformation for the field services industry at the first annual Simprosium

New security enhancements, payments integrations and customer experience improvements introduced at customer-focused roadshow

Simpro, the leading total business management software for commercial and residential trade service businesses, hosted its first user conference, Simprosium, across four cities in Australia and New Zealand. The roadshow, titled "Turn Chaos into Clarity," attracted a diverse audience of more than 700 Simpro customers, industry experts and ecosystem partners eager to learn about the latest platform features and celebrate the company's momentum.

The overall theme of Simprosium centered around supporting customers as they navigate the adoption of new technology innovations shaping the future of the trades industry while providing an open forum as Simpro continues to build a community. New Simpro product features were announced including security enhancements to improve customer experience, integration of Stripe payment processing software and new business intelligence (BI) reporting features and dashboards, highlighting the ability to subscribe to and automate BI reports and, for Xero customers, to reconcile sales invoices. Also, the incorporation of ClockShark time tracking capabilities to the platform and new digital form enhancements were announced. The adoption of these new Simpro product features is vital to helping trade service businesses reduce time spent on admin tasks, meet the needs of their digital-savvy customers and grow exponentially.

"Simpro transformed our approach from mere estimation on spreadsheets to a comprehensive solution integrating sales, operations and more," said Porty Ushan, director at Aloka Technology. "Simpro's powerful API capabilities allowed us to seamlessly connect various systems, ensuring a holistic view without technological hindrance. Simpro is more than an operations manager; it became the connective tissue that unified our processes, empowering our business to thrive."

Attendees of the inaugural roadshow heard from Simpro’s leadership, partners and customers on topics around inflation, staff retention and how leveraging data to drive company insights can support company innovation. Simprosium attendees heard from Simpro leaders including CEO, Gary Specter; Jason Penkethman, Chief Product Officer; Stephanie Wilkinson, CRO; and Wayne Barelds, VP of Product with customer spokespeople from Modus Operandi, Aloka Technology and Mouldmen. Customer discussions centered around adaptability, highlighting how business leaders respond to change and how Simpro facilitates and drives these transformations. The conversation also focused on BI reporting and underscored the significance of BI tools in steering growth and investments within this industry, providing insights into time and financial resource allocation and meeting a critical need expressed by Simpro customers.

"The Simprosium roadshow was all about meeting our customers and understanding what is top of mind for them,” said Gary Specter, CEO of Simpro. “It was important to me that we did not just talk at them, but talk with them to truly hear them so that together we can collaborate and create a community where we can invest in each other and be successful. It was an invigorating and humbling experience to be met with such honesty, enthusiasm and excitement around the community we will be building together."

With the success of this inaugural event, Simpro plans to activate these conferences in its growing US and UK markets in 2024. This move is a testament to Simpro's dedication to fostering a thriving community with its customers. Continuing to build a collaborative ecosystem where customers partner with Simpro to lead the way in innovation in the global trade service sector.
