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.

Evaluation based on Ability to Execute and Completeness of Vision

Blue Yonder is the only company recognized as a Leader in three Gartner Magic Quadrant reports covering supply chain planning solutions, transportation management systems and warehouse management systems

Blue Yonder, a leading digital supply chain and logistics provider, has been positioned by Gartner as a Leader in the recently released Magic Quadrant for Transportation Management Systems1 based on the “Ability to Execute” and “Completeness of Vision.” Blue Yonder attributes this position to its TMS solution and its Luminate® Platform, which combined offer advanced artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) transportation planning and execution capabilities, data management, and integration to the logistics ecosystem.

Blue Yonder has been recognized as a Leader 12 consecutive times in the Gartner Magic Quadrant for TMS2. In the 2023 report, Blue Yonder was positioned among a total of five vendors in the Leader quadrant. The company’s position as a Leader represents its strengths and cautions in market understanding, operations and marketing execution, among other criteria.

In addition, according to the Gartner Critical Capabilities for Transportation Management Systems report3, Blue Yonder ranked highest for Level 3 Use Case and second highest for Level 2, 4, and 5 Use cases.

“Our customers are utilizing Blue Yonder’s TMS, powered by Luminate Platform, to digitally transform their transportation operations. The solution allows them to manage and optimize their end-to-end business processes from transportation network modeling to planning to execution, carrier collaboration, and last-mile delivery. Our customers also have faster access to data and integration capabilities with their ecosystems, allowing them to meet both their own needs and their customers’,” said Wayne Usie, chief strategy officer, Blue Yonder.

Combined with Luminate Platform, which provides AI-powered intelligence and real-time data, Blue Yonder’s TMS offers customers full visibility, orchestration, and first-to-last mile optimization, especially for 3PL/4PL companies, transportation operations of shippers, and their carrier networks. In addition, Blue Yonder’s logistics network provides shippers with better out-of-the-box connectivity and modernized service offerings from rate and capacity provisioning to tendering, freight tracking and financial services.

“As the transportation and logistics industry continues to transform, in tandem with sales volume growth in certain regions, we need to make sure we are supporting that growth with improved responsiveness, while remaining efficient. By integrating Blue Yonder’s transportation management with track and trace capabilities, Bayer’s ability to serve our customers improved through the increased visibility into our transportation decisions,” said Johnny Ivanyi, Global Head of Distribution Excellence, Bayer Crop Science.
