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.

Worldpay From FIS and Affirm Team up to Expand Pay-Over-Time Solutions That Help Merchants Drive Growth

By: via Business Wire

Multi-year partnership enables Worldpay clients to seamlessly integrate Affirm and offer flexible and transparent payment options

Affirm (NASDAQ: AFRM), the payment network that empowers consumers and helps merchants drive growth, and global financial technology leader Worldpay from FIS® (NYSE: FIS), today announced a multi-year partnership that will make Affirm’s Adaptive Checkout™ available to all eligible Worldpay merchants. Starting today, Worldpay merchants can offer Affirm’s Adaptive Checkout and provide eligible consumers with bi-weekly and monthly payment options with just a few simple clicks.

“Consumers are demanding more flexible and transparent options that enable them to pay over time without any junk fees or hidden charges,” said Becca Stone, Vice President of Strategic Partnerships at Affirm. “By partnering with Worldpay, we are excited to expand the reach of our honest financial products. We look forward to supporting Worldpay’s merchants to drive growth and better serve their customers by providing customizable payment plans that help consumers make their money go further.”

Adaptive Checkout uses Affirm’s smart decision engine to make a real-time underwriting decision and offer consumers optimized bi-weekly and monthly pay over time options side-by-side. By providing Adaptive Checkout, Worldpay merchants now have the ability to offer a variety of payment options to their customers, from bi-weekly to monthly payments for as low as 0% APR. As always with Affirm, consumers will not be subject to any late fees or hidden charges.

Consumers who select Affirm as a payment option during checkout go through a quick, free, soft credit check that does not impact their credit score. If approved, eligible customers will be able to split their purchases into bi-weekly or monthly payments. Even if they're late or miss a payment, a customer’s total payment amount will not increase as Affirm does not charge late or hidden fees.

“It's becoming increasingly important for merchants to provide pay-over-time payment solutions with consumer demand continuing to grow," said Jim Johnson, Head of Merchant Solutions at FIS. "We are thrilled to partner with an industry leader like Affirm, whose innovative solutions will help us to provide our merchants' shoppers with the best payment experience possible. By integrating Affirm’s products at checkout our merchants will be best placed to capture new sales opportunities and revenue streams, helping them continue to grow into the future.”

Worldpay enables merchants of all sizes to take, make and manage payments across channels, geographies and industries. Over one million merchants globally trust Worldpay solutions to power their in-store, online and mobile transactions, fight fraud, optimize authentication and tap into value-added services that boost commerce. Additionally, Worldpay facilitates payouts to a broad network of suppliers and beneficiaries around the world, with capabilities to send money to approximately 225 markets in 135 local currencies.
