About Cabling Installation & Maintenance:

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.

Blindster Shutters Dated Infrastructure: Adopts Algolia and Gains Remarkable 33% Surge in Search Conversions

Algolia AI Search boosts search revenue by 18% and reduces developer workload

Algolia, the world's only end-to-end AI Search solution, announces that Blindster, the largest retailer of private label, custom-made window coverings in the U.S., selected Algolia's AI Search solution and embraced its powerful Analytics, Rules, Synonyms, and Dynamic Re-ranking functionality. This strategic move aims to propel Blindster to new heights within the window treatment industry by leveraging best-in-class technologies. The result: A remarkable surge in search conversions by 33% and an impressive 18% increase in search revenue.

Prior to Algolia, Blindster grappled with the limitations of an outdated, monolithic, PHP-based application, which hindered swift site changes and delivered a lackluster search experience. The application's inability to support millions of product stock-keeping units (SKUs) and review an ever-expanding index of product attributes also stifled Blindster's potential to connect with online shoppers effectively.

Under the visionary guidance of Blindster Chief Executive Officer Kyle Cox and Chief Technology Officer Hector Almaguer, Blindster embarked on a transformative journey, building an API-first, headless commerce platform with Algolia as its cornerstone.

CTO Hector Almaguer underscores Algolia's pivotal role in fulfilling the company's mission: “Algolia's breakthrough AI Search solution enables Blindster to deliver exceptional shopping experiences, fostering enduring customer relationships and cementing our leadership in the market.”

With Algolia seamlessly integrated across all category pages and poised for content implementation, Blindster anticipates a paradigm shift in its ecommerce landscape. Algolia's innovative features not only enhance search capabilities but also bolster flexibility, alleviate developer workload, and advance their personalization ambitions.

Michelle Adams, Chief Revenue Officer, Algolia, said: “Blindster's experience underscores the unparalleled impact of Algolia's solutions in driving engagement, conversions, and customer satisfaction. We eagerly anticipate further collaboration as Blindster continues its trajectory toward tech-driven excellence.”
