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.

United Automobile Insurance Company Implements Guidewire Cloud to Modernize Claims IT Operations

United Automobile Insurance Company (UAIC), one of the largest privately-held, family-owned property and casualty insurance companies in the United States, and Guidewire (NYSE: GWRE) announced that UAIC successfully migrated Guidewire ClaimCenter from an on-premise environment to Guidewire Cloud to power and simplify its claims and related IT operations. The company implemented ClaimCenter on Guidewire Cloud to its commercial and personal automobile lines of business in all of the states where it operates.

“We implemented ClaimCenter on Guidewire Cloud as part of a multi-phase digital transformation strategy. We’ve been an on-premise ClaimCenter customer since 2008 and are familiar and happy with the system, so it made sense to migrate to a best-in-class, unified, cloud-enabled software platform,” said UAIC Chief Information Officer Parvin Kumar. “A software as a service (SaaS) model like Guidewire Cloud has helped us to automate and shape our business more effectively. The results have been overwhelmingly positive. We’re realizing the benefits that come with being on Guidewire Cloud, such as high availability, performance, and scalability. By transferring system maintenance and updates to Guidewire, our staff is now able to focus on the business activities that are delivering value, with our agents and customers now reporting new claims and checking claim statuses themselves, reducing our call volume and leading to increased efficiencies for our team and customers.”

Kumar added, “The implementation project was streamlined and seamless, causing no disruption to our daily business operations, and we’ve taken multiple Guidewire Cloud updates quickly and without any problems. We’re looking forward to taking advantage of Guidewire Analytics capabilities available on Guidewire Cloud and easily integrating the best-in-class insurtech solutions that are part of Guidewire Marketplace and the PartnerConnect ecosystem.”

“We thank UAIC for entrusting Guidewire Cloud as the technology foundation for its business strategy and success now and into the future, beginning with the enhancement of its claims operations,” said Guidewire Senior Vice President and Head of Professional Services Michael Mahoney. “We congratulate UAIC on its successful ClaimCenter migration onto Guidewire Cloud, and we look forward to helping the company continue its mission of providing a high quality, affordable, and reliable insurance product to a wide sector of the American population.”
