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.

Inspire Brands Streamlines Omnichannel Commerce Across North American Restaurants via Expanded Fiserv Relationship

Relationship will drive unified customer experiences and operational efficiency across U.S. company-owned and franchised locations

Fiserv, Inc. (NYSE: FI), a leading global provider of payments and financial services technology solutions, today announced an expansion of its relationship with Inspire Brands, a multi-brand restaurant company whose portfolio includes more than 32,000 restaurants worldwide.

The expanded relationship builds on a successful foundation in which Fiserv has helped power connected commerce experiences within the Inspire portfolio for more than two decades. Continuing its existing relationship with their Baskin-Robbins, Dunkin’, and Sonic brands, Fiserv will now unify in-store, in-app, and online commerce for several more of Inspire’s popular restaurant concepts. The agreement will add several thousand additional restaurants to the relationship and include both company-owned and franchised locations.

“As buying experiences become more connected to customer loyalty, enabling seamless interactions across channels has become critical to our success,” said Kate Jaspon, Inspire CFO. “Inspire’s expanded relationship with Fiserv will simplify and improve how we serve our customers through any platform or payment method they choose.”

Inspire will leverage Carat, the global commerce platform from Fiserv, to enable payment experiences across its digital and physical footprint, enhance gift solutions, and maximize efficiency by unifying settlement, reporting, analytics, and other functions. This will also help simplify how Inspire connects its portfolio of restaurants to innovative payment capabilities and technology providers, allowing each brand to enable the payment experiences that best fit its unique customer needs.

“Our expanded relationship with Inspire exemplifies how large enterprises are making targeted investments to create deeper, more unified experiences for customers while optimizing costs,” said Casey Klyszeiko, Head of Carat and Global eCommerce at Fiserv. “By simplifying their commerce model, Inspire will be able to better streamline in-house operations.”

Carat is the global commerce platform from Fiserv that orchestrates payments and experiences for the world’s largest businesses, including eight of the 10 largest global quick-service restaurants (QSRs). With Carat, leading brands can unify their commerce, optimize transactions, and imagine and realize new ways to engage with customers.
