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.

AM Best’s Playback Now Available for Webinar on Combining Credit and Public Records Data for More Holistic Views of Insurance Risk

Video playback is available for a complimentary webinar titled, “Stronger Together: How Combining Credit and Public Records Data Can Yield Sharper Views of Insurance Risk,” sponsored by LexisNexis® Risk Solutions. Access it here.

In this 30-minute webinar, experts in insurance, credit risk, public records and data analytics discuss the lift that integrating credit data with public records can deliver for a more holistic understanding of consumer risk.

Key points include:

  • How credit data and public records data complement each other in insurance risk assessment, with credit serving as the foundation and public records adding new views of information.
  • The four main categories of public records data that LexisNexis Risk Solutions uses: derogatory information (like criminal convictions), non-derogatory information (like professional licenses), credit-absent financials (like short-term loans) and proprietary data (like address stability patterns).
  • The concept of "trended credit" and how it differs from traditional credit snapshots by looking at 24 months of historical payment information to distinguish between different types of credit users.
  • The process of implementing public records data into insurance operations, including strategies for starting small with underwriting attributes before expanding to more complex rating applications.
  • How LexisNexis Risk Solutions worked with state regulators to gain approval for their public records scoring model, including specific modifications made for states like Massachusetts.
  • The benefits of combining credit and public records data, including the ability to score previously "credit invisible" consumers and achieve better risk segmentation.
  • How insurers can conduct retrospective analyses to test the effectiveness of these combined data sources on their specific book of business before implementations.
  • The current state of the insurance market and why timing is critical for implementing these combined data sources to avoid adverse selection and maintain competitiveness.
