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.

HEMIC Deploys Guidewire Cloud for Digital Business Growth

Hawaii Employers’ Mutual Insurance Company, Inc. (HEMIC), Hawaii’s largest provider of workers’ compensation insurance, and Guidewire (NYSE: GWRE) announced that HEMIC has successfully migrated Guidewire InsuranceSuite to Guidewire Cloud to power its core business, simplify IT operations, adapt quickly to changing marketing demands, and deliver value to agents and customers. A Guidewire self-managed customer since 2016, the company also migrated the self-managed installations of its Guidewire DataHub, InfoCenter, CustomerEngage, and ProducerEngage applications onto Guidewire Cloud.

“Migrating to Guidewire Cloud addresses our digital-first strategy for our customers and agents, improving and enhancing their online experience with cloud capabilities,” said HEMIC Chief Transformation Officer Leila Kagawa. “It’s also enabled us to transfer system maintenance to Guidewire so we can stay current with their latest technology and innovations, as well as easily integrate the best-in-class insurtech solutions that are part of Guidewire Marketplace and the PartnerConnect ecosystem into our workflows for streamlined processing.”

In addition, HEMIC is in the process of deploying a pricing model using Guidewire Predict for issuing quotes on new business. HEMIC Vice President of Underwriting Regina Harris commented, “One of our reasons for moving to Guidewire Cloud is to leverage predictive analytics with full integration into Guidewire PolicyCenter to improve underwriting outcomes. We expect the predictions from the pricing model to improve our small business risk selection and increase the straight-through processing rate.”

“We congratulate HEMIC on its successful cloud transformation,” said Guidewire Head of Services Michael Mahoney. “We are excited to help the company continue its 27-year mission of serving Hawaii’s businesses with the core values of excellence and integrity.”
