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.

ERI Takes ITAD Data Security and Tracking Efficiency to New Heights with Proprietary Optech CAPTURE System

By: via Business Wire

ERI, the nation’s largest fully integrated IT and electronics asset disposition (ITAD) provider and cybersecurity-focused hardware destruction company, has launched its new internal proprietary Optech CAPTURE system designed to comprehensively manage and track asset chain of custody throughout the entire ITAD process. The system, designed by ERI, is fully operational.

Optech CAPTURE establishes fully transparent, complete chain of custody tracking, starting from when the assets are scanned at the site of origin and then throughout the entire process. The technology is accessible via mobile devices and used by ERI’s field technicians and freight carriers from the on-site customer location. With ERI’s built-in SOAR functionality, Optech CAPTURE enables ERI’s technicians to create a detailed list of products, complete with pictures of what is being picked up and packaged at the customer site. The system then provides a receipt, including a signature at the time of collection.

“In the ITAD industry, a complete and detailed chain of custody is critical for proper data security and tracking,” said John Shegerian, ERI’s Chairman/CEO. “We are proud to be pioneering a new level of efficiency and protection for our customers while responding to an industry need. We are taking our Optech platform that was already best-in-class and adding a new tool that takes it to a whole new level of excellence. Optech CAPTURE ensures that the chain of custody starts and ends with ERI when it comes to protecting customer data.”

ERI is the first company in the industry to have a complete platform (integrated into its Optech system) utilizing artificial intelligence, machine learning and OCR technologies.

Optech is ERI's robust, online IT and electronic asset disposition portal. It provides real-time transparency into a client's account activity sharing asset details from receipt through final disposition. The platform is an extensible and configurable solution to meet the tracking needs for both data and non-data bearing assets of any organization, regardless of size or industry. ERI clients can securely access the portal 24/7 and can export key data on demand, run asset reports, or order services.

ERI works with all of its partners to increase the volume of material captured within a closed loop and is the recipient of an overall “A” rating from the Ellen MacArthur Foundation’s Circulytics tool which measures progress towards a circular economy.

ERI is the nation’s leading fully integrated IT and electronics asset disposition provider and cybersecurity-focused hardware destruction company.
