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.

RaceTrac Taps Vontier’s Invenco by GVR Remote Management Solution to Ensure High Uptime and Drive Operational and Cost Efficiencies

Forecourt Asset Management Selected to Ensure High Uptime, Save Money and Time and Boost Customer Experience at Convenience Store Leader’s 800+stores

Vontier Corporation (NYSE: VNT), a leading global provider of critical technologies and solutions to connect, manage and scale the mobility ecosystem, announced today that RaceTrac Inc., a regional leader in convenience and fuel retail and the 18th largest, privately held company in the United States, has selected Vontier’s Invenco by GVR asset management cloud-based solution to remotely manage its forecourt assets, maximizing operational and cost efficiency at its more than 800 stores representing the RaceTrac® and RaceWay® brands in 13 states..

"RaceTrac’s mission is to ensure our on-the-go guests enjoy a frictionless and positive fueling experience,” said Brian Nay, RaceTrac’s director of field services. “Invenco’s asset management helps us deliver a very high level of reliability and consistency, which directly impacts our bottom line by maximizing sales opportunities and building customer loyalty.”

Invenco’s forecourt asset management centralizes and simplifies site management by offering a cloud-based dashboard for real-time access to remotely manage forecourt equipment to maximize uptime and reduce the need for on-site repairs. RaceTrac leverages asset management to deploy over-the-air updates, reduce unexpected costs through preventative maintenance, prevent fuel theft and implement remote fixes.

"We avoided 10,000 truck rolls last year,” said Nay. “That's a big number when you think about what it costs to send out a vendor. This not only reduces operational expenses, but also ensures that problems are addressed quickly, keeping our equipment running smoothly and reliably. In addition, by monitoring this data, we can identify potential issues before they become major problems, ensuring that our operations run efficiently and reducing unexpected repair costs.”

Unlike traditional systems, this remote management solution is a cloud-based platform that also includes Application Programming Interfaces (APIs), enabling seamless integration with Invenco’s, RaceTrac’s, and other third-party hardware, software, and services. APIs enable the automation of work orders, significantly reducing the need for manual intervention. "59% of all work orders are created automatically," said Nay. "This automation leads to improved accuracy and faster issue resolution, allowing our team to focus on more strategic tasks, further enhancing operational efficiency."

“We’re excited to partner with RaceTrac to help them continue to improve their customer experience and operational efficiency,” said Kartik Ganapathi, President, Invenco by GVR. “How RaceTrac uses our asset management platform and APIs to boost business performance is really a template other companies should be following to maximize their results.”

Headquartered in Atlanta, Georgia, family-owned RaceTrac is the 18th largest privately held company in the United States and has been serving guests since 1934. RaceTrac has more than 800 retail locations representing the RaceTrac® and RaceWay® brands in 13 states offering guests an affordable one-stop-shop featuring competitively priced fuel plus a wide selection of food and beverage favorites, including freshly brewed coffee. RaceTrac employs more than 10,500 team members across RaceTrac, RaceWay and affiliated companies Metroplex Energy, Energy Dispatch and Gulf Oil.
