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.

Western Union Opens Own Stores for Customers in Mexico

  • Western Union becomes the first international money transfer operator to open its own branded stores in the country
  • Launch announcement comes at the start of the Christmas holiday season when customers send and receive up to 10% more as they prepare to celebrate festivities.

 

Western Union today announced that it has opened eight owned locations for customers in Mexico. The move makes the Company the first international money transfer service provider to launch its own branded stores in the country. The owned stores offer a specialized, high-quality customer-focused experience that address the growing demand for efficient and reliable cross-border money transfer services.

"We are excited to announce the launch of our very own Western Union stores across Mexico,” said Claudia Reyes Armebianchi, Western Union’s Vice President, General Manager Mexico & Central America. “These new stores strengthen our ability to serve customers directly, providing them with more options, enhanced reliability, and a streamlined experience. They represent our unwavering commitment to support our customers with accessible financial services across multiple channels as they aspire for more, as well as bring Western Union even closer to the heart of communities.”

Enhancing Customer Experience and Convenience

The Western Union stores are strategically positioned in prime, high-demand and easy-to-access locations. They provide customers with direct access to Western Union’s extensive cross-border money transfer services, where they can send and receive money across the Company’s global money movement network of 200 countries and territories.

Customers receiving money also benefit from being able to use one of 12 different types of valid identification documents, along with the ability to collect transfers of up to USD 10,000. Customers transferring money can choose to send to their loved ones for collection in cash, depositing directly into bank accounts or mobile wallets. This tailored experience is designed to meet customers' diverse needs and streamline their money transfer processes.

  • Insurgentes Sur: Av. Insurgentes Sur 3655, Miguel Hidalgo 1ra Secc, Tlalpan, 14260 Ciudad de México, CDMX

Owned stores support one pillar of Western Union’s ‘Evolve 2025’ strategy: to leverage its retail business as a gateway to the Company. They focus on driving high-value, accessible financial services by providing customers with more choices in how they send and receive money, while offering direct interaction with the brand. Serving as an important mix to its retail network, they add to Western Union’s existing locations with Agents across the country.

Strengthening Connections: Supporting Families During the Holiday Season

Today’s announcement comes at the start of the holiday season when money transfers, also known as remittances, traditionally increase. According to Western Union data, customers in Mexico typically send and receive almost 10% more transactions in December compared to the previous month, as they prepare to celebrate Christmas festivities. This trend emphasises the critical role that money transfers play in supporting families during the holiday seasons.

“This investment underscores our dedication to enhancing financial accessibility and flexibility for our customers in Mexico, especially during the festive season when sending and receiving remittances takes on even greater significance,” added Claudia. “We are committed to supporting our customers with more dedicated options that allow them to manage their remittances easily and confidently. Mexico is a vital market for Western Union, and we are here to serve with an approach that matches the evolving needs of our customers."

World Bank figures rank Mexico as one of the world’s top remittance receiving countries. Inflows totalled over $66 billion in 2023, accounting for approximately 4% of the country’s GDP. These funds play a vital role in supporting the nation’s families, local businesses, and communities. As cross-border money transfers continue to be an essential financial lifeline, Western Union’s owned stores reinforce the Company’s role in connecting Mexico to the world through its global money movement network.

Western Union has a well-established presence in Mexico that caters to diverse and fast-evolving customer needs. In addition to today’s launch announcement, Western Union services are accessible through hundreds of Agent locations nationwide. Customers can also move money through Western Union’s mobile app - allowing them to choose money transfer methods based on their convenience and needs.
