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.

The new Dashboards distill task data from multiple detailed reports into an easily digestible screen, highlighting key performance maintenance metrics at the property, region or portfolio level. Dashboards deliver greater understanding and insights to users across all levels of the organization, providing easy-to-navigate task information to empower informed decisions.

“Delivering technology that solves challenges for our customers and the rental housing industry at large has always been top priority for SmartRent. When we acquired SightPlan, we knew there was a tremendous opportunity to engineer a clearer, more visual way to understand maintenance performance data,” said Isaiah DeRose-Wilson, Chief Technology Officer at SmartRent. “Now, as SightPlan becomes fully integrated into the Smart Operations platform as the Work Management solution, the new advanced Dashboards provide community managers, service technicians and operations teams with actionable data at their fingertips. This data can help to ensure that assets are well-maintained and optimized for efficiency and improved property performance.”

SmartRent Dashboards feature various categories, including: task status, task completion time, past due percentage, resident task ratings, call type, average time to accept urgent tasks, average time to close urgent tasks and tasks by source. Dashboards is a significant feature within SmartRent Work Management (formerly SightPlan) - the workflow management tool used by maintenance teams to streamline and elevate property upkeep.

“Through new Dashboards, maintenance supervisors glean different information from dashboard reporting than portfolio managers, which makes clear and comprehensive visualization of task data essential,” said DeRose-Wilson. “Site teams can focus on open tasks and response times, whereas a broader lens might help to identify widespread trends that require a more extensive response. Dashboards catalog and classify task information into reports that are customizable and aid in centralization of customer operations.”

Centralization and automation have grown in popularity in rental housing as evident with more podded teams being utilized across portfolios. The industry needs a platform that answers centralization by automating task management to create seamless, interconnected workflows for maintenance and operations teams.

Dashboards is part of SmartRent’s commitment to innovative solutions that drive operational efficiency for its customers. It serves as a foundational component for the ongoing development of a dynamic, overarching platform that will create optimal efficiency, reduce workload, enhance team productivity and continue to support the evolving needs of the industry.

Recent platform updates and enhancements, which directly reflect feedback from the 7,600 communities representing 1.3M units and 300 multifamily organizations currently employing the solution, include:

  • AI-powered dictation functionality reduces task creation effort by 70%
  • Digital make-ready boards replace traditionally manual processes to support centralized staffing models
  • Appointment preference option allows residents to select a time for work order completion
  • Simplified asset tracking and task linking
  • Calendar view feature provides easy-to-interpret overview of all tasks
  • Sync indicator display added to show the status of synchronicity within the mobile workflow app and ensure the accuracy of offline work
  • Overall system improvements to increase uptime and platform reliability
