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.

Spirit Airlines Optimizes Baggage Operations and Reduces Costs with TA Ramp

By: via Business Wire

Spirit implements the latest technology by TA Connections, advancing bag scanning operations and increasing ramp efficiency

TA Connections, a Corpay (NYSE: CPAY) brand with unmatched access to travel and hotel inventory, announced today that Spirit Airlines (NYSE: SAVE) has implemented the latest version of TA Ramp, an integrated baggage reconciliation solution. This investment in Spirit’s operation enhances accuracy in baggage handling and drives cost savings through advanced camera scanning while reducing the need for expensive third-party hardware.

Now, Spirit’s Ramp Service Agents are using a new advanced camera software development kit (SDK) added to the iPhone to scan and track baggage — driving down technology costs and boosting ramp efficiency. With real-time operational data at their fingertips, Spirit’s Ramp Service Agents are empowered to proactively address any issues and reduce baggage-related flight delays.

“At Spirit, we’re passionate about continuously optimizing our operations and helping our Team Members work more efficiently and effectively, and TA Ramp is helping us do just that,” said Jason Fogelman, Senior Director of Airport Innovation, Standards and Training at Spirit Airlines. “We’re excited to invest in technology that supports our Service and Savvy Values by delivering a great experience for our Guests and reducing costs to help keep fares low.”

Spirit has been a long-time partner with TA Connections, leveraging TA Crew Hub and TA Disruption Hub to manage lodging and logistics for Team Members and Guests affected by travel disruptions. TA Ramp, which Spirit Airlines began using in 2019, has transformed the ramp for Agents the same way TA Crew Hub and TA Disruption Hub has transformed the Crew and Guest experience. Thanks to the latest version of TA Ramp with its advanced camera scanning technology, airlines are seeing further improvement in communications, a reduction in mishandled bags and significantly reduced ramp operation costs.

“It can be challenging to communicate in the busy ramp environment, making operations a top-of-mind area of opportunity for our customers,” said Mike Appleton, President of TA Connections. “By coupling scanning technology with real-time data, TA Ramp has revolutionized operations for our airline partners– and we’re thrilled to see it deliver tremendous cost-saving results for Spirit Airlines.”

With a legacy of 24 years of innovation, TA Connections is committed to automating operations for airlines. With a suite of solutions that manages crew layover lodging and logistics and streamlines resolution for disrupted passengers, TA Connections is focused on continuous advancements and transforming processes for its more than 140 airline and cruise line companies.
