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.

Brightside Selects Helix by Q2 to Migrate BaaS Program

Brightside offers savings and checking accounts, now powered by Helix, to companies to help employees facing financial hardship

Helix by Q2 (NYSE: QTWO), an award-winning, cloud-native core purpose-built for embedded finance, today announced its partnership with Brightside, a Financial Care benefit provider offered to employees by their employers. Brightside’s savings, checking and business operations accounts, are now powered by Helix’s banking as a service (BaaS) solution.

To help employees in need, Brightside directly offers products like debit cards, emergency savings accounts, cash advances, hardship programs, and other partner solutions, such as emergency loans and credit-building products.

Brightside chose Helix’s BaaS solution to power its savings, checking and business accounts because it was far more reliable and scalable than their previous vendor’s solution. Additionally, Helix enabled Brightside to have a direct relationship with their bank partner without the need for FBO accounts or middleware and provided the oversight, control, and tooling necessary for both parties to collaborate efficiently and effectively.

“One of the most appealing things about Helix by Q2 was that they’ve been at this for a long time, and we had confidence in their technical reliability and company stability,” said Anthony Strike, Head of Partnerships at Brightside. “When we needed to speed up the implementation, Q2 helped cut the implementation time down significantly so that we were able to go live with all of our customers without any downtime.”

Brightside’s migration from their old BaaS partner to Helix took less than two quarters to go live, and they’ve already seen a significant reduction in the number of support tickets related to banking products. With the program live, Brightside can go beyond parity – evolving their offering over time to meet the growing needs of their customers.

“We are excited to partner with Brightside to improve financial wellness for people across the country,” said Ahon Sarkar, senior vice president and general manager of Helix. “With financial stress rising amongst Americans, Brightside’s human-first approach to eliminating financial stress and helping people along every point in their journey is needed now more than ever.”

“Brightside’s mission is to improve the financial lives of working families by offering employer-paid financial support, services, and products to employees to help them handle financial emergencies, stabilize finances, and achieve financial goals,” continued Strike. “We are grateful for our partnership with Helix, and we are excited to continue building out Brightside’s mission.”
