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.

Q2 Announces Q2 Fabric to Enable Financial Institutions to Launch Digital Brands

 New integrated stack combines the power of Q2’s retail banking experience, a lightweight modern core, and a pre-integrated fintech ecosystem to deliver personalized digital products

Q2 Holdings, Inc. (NYSE: QTWO), a leading provider of digital transformation solutions for banking and lending, today announced the launch of Q2 Fabric, a full stack solution that weaves together a best-in-class retail banking experience, a lightweight modern core, and a robust, pre-integrated fintech ecosystem. Q2 Fabric enables banks and credit unions to launch a differentiated digital brand to grow consumer deposits, increase profitability and accelerate innovation.

Q2 Fabric combines Q2’s industry-leading digital banking platform, Helix’s lightweight cloud-based core, and Q2’s Innovation Studio with more than 130 fintech partners. Q2 Fabric enables financial institutions to accelerate the delivery of personalized digital products, such as high-yield savings accounts and demand deposit accounts with debit card, and differentiate them with the partner fintech functionality that best fits their users’ needs.

“With Q2 Fabric, financial institutions no longer need to rip and replace their legacy core systems to deliver personalized digital products,” said Ahon Sarkar, general manager, Helix by Q2. “Q2 Fabric runs alongside existing core capabilities to fuel the innovative digital-first banking experiences necessary to drive deposit growth and improve profitability.”

“For over 19 years, Q2 has worked diligently to innovate and create digital banking products that address the needs of financial institutions,” said Dallas Wells, senior vice president of Product Management, Q2. “As the market has shifted and financial institutions face a wide range of new challenges, we see an opportunity to help banks and credit unions rise to the occasion. Q2 Fabric brings together three of our best assets to deliver a new, differentiated offering in the market.”

“Banks and credit unions must fully embrace the shift in our digital-first world while assessing the evolving competitive landscape, both within financial services and even from other industries,” says Marc DeCastro, research director, IDC Financial Insights. “Solutions that can leverage partner ecosystems to meet the customer’s financial needs and expectations will allow an institution to target new markets and prospects in a more efficient manner without the need for large scale transformative disruptions.”

Today, banks and credit unions are faced with four significant challenges: the race for deposits, rising digital expectations, profitability pressure, and limited distribution channels. Q2 Fabric helps financial institutions grow deposits, increase profitability and accelerate innovation by offering the following products:

  • Savings – high-yield savings accounts and goal-based savings
  • Checking – no-fee checking accounts and data-driven personalization
  • Debit cards – physical, virtual, and tokenized cards and account-level security controls

The retail digital banking experience can be further enhanced with targeted fintech solution bundles through Q2’s Innovation Studio fintech partner ecosystem. With these carefully curated collections of fintech offerings, banks and credit unions can extend their engagement with targeted, high-value niche groups. Examples include the following:

  • Financial literacy for kids (goals, education, investing)
  • Gen Z starter kit (goals, credit building, charitable giving)
  • Solutions for Seniors (ID protection, insurance, estate/trust services)
  • Save now, buy later (goal-based savings with rewards partners)
  • Financial health (debt repayment, credit score, identity protection, insurance)
  • Immigrant/migrant worker/underbanked toolkit (cross-border payments, credit builder)
