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.

SWM, which manages approximately 40% of Malaysia’s waste collection and disposal services, is upgrading its fleet with 250 HINO 500 Series refuse trucks equipped with Allison 3000 SeriesTM transmissions. These new trucks provide smooth operation, reduced maintenance and downtime, and have proven to be effective in enabling the company to collect refuse every day without any disruptions, which has significantly improved efficiency.

"Given the stop-and-go driving conditions that are common in urban areas, as well as the challenges of soft road surfaces and inclines, we understand the importance of reliable and efficient refuse collection operations. That's why we are excited to introduce our new refuse trucks equipped with Allison 3000 Series transmissions," said Amirludin Che Ahmad, Operations Manager, Southern Waste Management. "So far, more than 50 HINO 500 Series refuse trucks have been put into operation, and we are confident that this expanding new fleet will enable us to achieve reliable and efficient performance under demanding conditions."

SWM’s HINO 500 refuse truck pairs the Hino J08E-WK engine and an Allison 3000 Series six-speed fully automatic transmission with Power Take-Off. The new refuse vehicles have enabled SWM to reach its fuel consumption and productivity targets of two kilometers per liter, using just one ride to collect all garbage within a specific time frame. Additionally, drivers have reported less stress in vehicle operation due to improved maneuverability and drivability.

"We are honored to support SWM's mission to keep Malaysia clean and environmentally sustainable. Our fully automatic transmissions are designed to offer the best possible driving experience for refuse truck drivers, which ultimately results in better service for customers,” said Ken Ong, Sales Director, Southeast Asia and Taiwan, Allison Transmission. “We look forward to a continued partnership with SWM and to further advancing the refuse collection industry in Malaysia."

Allison Transmission’s 3000 Series is designed for medium-duty commercial vehicles and is engineered to adapt and operate efficiently in a variety of applications. The 3000 Series is built to make medium-duty vehicles more fuel efficient and easier to operate.
