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.

Fiserv and Central Payments Deliver Modern Issuing Capabilities to Fintechs and Financial Institutions

Strategic relationship advances embedded finance capabilities that help brands create innovative debit programs in step with the realities of people’s lives

Fiserv, Inc. (NASDAQ: FISV), a leading global provider of payments and financial services technology solutions, and Central Payments L.L.C., a banking-as-a-service (BaaS) provider, are enabling fintechs, enterprise businesses and payment facilitators to bring financial products and services to market with greater speed and growth potential.

The combination of the Fiserv technology stack, including a real-time core, card processing, and issuance, with Central Payments’ award-winning Open*CP Fintech API Marketplace®, which includes program management and compliance oversight, enables fintechs and nearly any other business to create valuable products and services that more holistically meet the rising expectations of consumers and small businesses. For those with established card programs, this provides access to more comprehensive and regulated core banking and payment services.

As fintech offerings have grown more robust, so has consumer demand to access their money through digital experiences outside of traditional banking channels. In many cases, this means enabling non-chartered fintechs and other businesses to deliver financial services, such as debit cards, secure credit, stored value cards, unsecured credit and more. Fiserv and Central Payments bring together a BaaS platform, products and services, and access to a network of sponsor banks to support a wide spectrum of innovative use cases across retail and business.

“As fintechs and financial institutions work together to create compelling financial offerings, speed to market, a robust and flexible tech stack and streamlined operations are essential,” said Sunil Sachdev, head of Fintech and Growth at Fiserv. “Together, Fiserv and Central Payments can deliver these requirements without compromising compliance and risk controls needed to safeguard all parties.”

Fiserv and Central Payments provide everything needed for a fintech or other company to connect with a sponsor bank, launch, and manage unique payments products and services. Fiserv financial institution clients pursuing a fintech partnership can also engage with Fiserv and Central Payments for go-to-market program management support.

“This combination of technology, services, program management and bank partners will help any business become a fintech without the need to add the staff or expertise to manage the program in-house,” said Eric Cotton, Executive Vice President and General Manager at Central Payments. “Those that may want to manage their program in-house eventually can also use our services as a lower risk model to get to market quickly with a proof-of-concept.”

In a world moving faster than ever before, Fiserv helps clients deliver solutions in step with the way people live and work today – financial services at the speed of life. Learn more at fiserv.com.
