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.

Avnet Adds New Features to Second Release of its IoTConnect Platform on AWS

Enables simple, fast and secure IoT implementations for OEMs

Avnet’s (Nasdaq: AVT) second release of IoTConnect on Amazon Web Services (AWS) allows Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs) to build intelligent Internet of Things (IoT) devices faster. This full-featured release now incorporates key features such as support for AWS IoT Greengrass, built-in dynamic dashboards, a smart rules engine, and Artificial Intelligence (AI) model management and deployment. These features benefit OEMs by allowing them to focus on the development of features and applications that truly elevate their connected products.

Building on the first release of IoTConnect on AWS launched in February, this second release helps OEMs of IoT solutions design their products more efficiently and reduce their time to market by more than 50%.

Avnet’s IoTConnect platform is created to seamlessly connect devices and gain insights from the collected data to make better business decisions. This full-fledged platform as a Service (PaaS) allows for device communication and management, data storage, app creation and enablement of robust security protocols.

Clear-Vu, a market leader in the design, development, and manufacturing of innovative LED lighting, is embracing Avnet’s IoTConnect. “We are excited to work with Avnet and leverage the power of AWS, as their robust hardware and cloud capabilities are poised to accelerate our continual journey towards creating innovative lighting solutions,” said Nick Russo, national director of Sales at Clear-Vu. “Their combined expertise in creating connected solutions and scalable infrastructure should enable us to enhance our product offerings and create transformative experiences for our customers."

This IoTConnect platform addresses the challenges that come with cloud-connected solutions like scalability, reliability, maintenance, and security, making it easier for OEMs to bring their products to market quickly and successfully.

“Today’s second release of IoTConnect on AWS significantly expands the features available for OEMs to design, build, deploy, and manage cloud connected devices, applications, and solutions at scale,” said Lou Lutostanski, vice president of IoT, Avnet. “To further reduce OEMs’ development time, Avnet has also teamed up with leading microcontroller manufacturers to pre-connect their hardware solutions to IoTConnect.”

"Collaboration with Avnet is instrumental in AWS’s mission to accelerate and empower customers with IoT solutions that mitigate the complexities that hinder their journey to market,” said Yasser Alsaied, vice president of IoT at AWS. “Together, we are driving innovation, enabling OEMs to build IoT solutions from edge to cloud with ease and at scale.”
