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.

Helix Enhances Cardholder Experience and Increases Fraud Protection With New Cooperative Authorization Solution

By: via Business Wire

New authorization solution enables clients to personalize their cardholder experiences and improve profitability for qualified debit card programs

Helix by Q2 (NYSE: QTWO), an award-winning, cloud-native core purpose-built for embedded finance, today announced the launch of its new cooperative authorization solution for Helix by Q2 customers. The in-authorization solution, also known as “In Auth,” enables Helix customers to personalize their cardholder experience and improve program profitability through better detection and prevention of debit card fraud.

The In Auth solution allows Helix customers to participate in the card transaction-decisioning process and apply their unique knowledge and context about their users to either prevent unauthorized card transactions or to personalize the cardholder experience on a per-transaction basis. In Auth is built into Helix’s proprietary technology stack and, when combined with the other layers of risk management Helix offers at the card and portfolio level, gives clients a superior level of control over the cardholder experience.

“Companies who offer embedded banking have unique context that allows them to better understand their customers’ behavior,” said Ahon Sarkar, general manager of Helix by Q2. “With the launch of In Auth, they can now leverage this context as a differentiator to drive more nuanced cardholder experiences, prevent card fraud without hurting their best customers, and extend payment capabilities beyond the primary funding account, regardless of which vertical they operate in.”

“Our goal is to provide the best online checking and savings experience to our members and that includes protecting them against fraud,” said David Pollock, VP, Partnerships & Banking Product Services of Credit Karma Money*. “This new feature will make it easier for us to leverage information we already have on our members to detect and mitigate fraud in real time, and reduce unnecessary declines.”

Some of the top benefits of In Auth are:

  • Enhanced Fraud Detection and Prevention: Clients can use their unique insights about their customers and their behavior to help detect and prevent unauthorized debit fraud and improve program profitability.
  • Cardholder Personalization: Clients can use their unique customer insights to prevent unnecessary debit card transaction declines on their most-valued and lowest-risk customers.
  • Real-time access to transaction authorization flow: Clients will receive real-time transactions that are eligible for a decision, so clients can decide if they’d like to decline based on risk, approve to personalize a cardholder’s experience, or abstain altogether.
  • Parallel Processing: Regardless of how clients decide to participate in a particular transaction, Helix, as their core system, will be ready with a transaction decision. That way, cardholders and any Helix debit card transaction processing functions aren’t impacted if there’s a delay in returning a response.
  • PCI Compliance: Clients can participate in debit card transaction processing without needing to be PCI (payment card industry) compliant.

In Auth is an extended capability of the Helix platform and Helix’s card transaction processing capabilities. Helix’s modern API obscures PCI sensitive data, while exposing data in a format anyone can understand and use in a decision framework.
