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.

Luxury Jewelry Brand L’azurde Launches Elegant New Composable Commerce Website on BigCommerce

With an integrated tech stack built in just five months, L’azurde has seen its conversion rates double alongside significant improvements in sales growth, uptime and site stability

BigCommerce (Nasdaq: BIGC), an open SaaS, composable ecommerce platform for fast-growing and established B2C and B2B brand and retailers, today announced that L’azurde Company for Jewelry, one of the Middle East’s largest jewelry designers, manufacturers and distributors, has launched on the BigCommerce platform.

With a presence in Saudi Arabia, Egypt and the United Arab Emirates, L'azurde has been a leader in crafting exquisite jewelry for over four decades. Known for its commitment to excellence and innovation, L'azurde produces over 3,000 different jewelry models each year.

After dealing with performance and integration limitations on Magento, L’azurde turned to BigCommerce and a composable commerce approach to scale with the company’s growth. Since its launch on BigCommerce, L’azurde has seen its conversion rates double in addition to overall sales growth and improved uptime and site stability.

“The decision to replatform was fueled by our commitment to future-proof our business,” said Marcelo Da Silva, group head of omnichannel at L'azurde. “We recognized the importance of being nimble in a rapidly evolving market. With BigCommerce, we have a platform that prioritizes flexibility, empowering us to implement innovations swiftly and launch new features seamlessly so we can deliver amazing customer experiences and leave technical platform management to the experts.”

L'azurde recognized that a compelling online storefront was pivotal to their digital transformation. The company needed a platform that not only showcased their extensive range of jewelry collections but also delivered an exceptional and engaging shopping experience. L’azurde worked with BigCommerce partners to create a custom headless storefront that integrated seamlessly with BigCommerce’s ecommerce platform.

Leveraging the Next.js framework, L’azurde relied upon BigCommerce’s world-class partner ecosystem to build a modern, composable site that enabled L’azurde to manage its product catalog, inventory and customer data efficiently. L’azurde’s composable tech stack includes integrations for its CDXP, order management system, PIM, CMS and search-and-merch tools. The BigCommerce back-end provides the infrastructure for ecommerce at scale, handling key functions such as order processing, security payments and inventory management.

Taking a composable approach gave L’azurde a strong foundation to deliver incredible customer experiences, no matter how customer expectations change.

“Shoppers today demand personalized experiences, streamlined checkouts and responsive interfaces,” said Da Silva. “Our replatforming efforts are geared toward meeting and exceeding these expectations. With the advent of AI, augmented reality and other cutting-edge technology, BigCommerce allows us to integrate seamlessly with a diverse array of third-party applications and services. This freedom from vendor lock-in empowers us to use a tech stack tailored to our unique needs, fostering innovation and adaptability.”

“L’azurde really took full advantage of BigCommerce’s open platform and strong partner ecosystem to get a fully functioning composable site up and running in just five months,” said Mark Adams, senior vice president and general manager of EMEA at BigCommerce. “They are experiencing meaningful benefits in such a short amount of time. This project demonstrates that composability is effective and does not need to be overly complicated in order to land results.”

L’azurde is the latest in a series of lifestyle and apparel merchants to choose BigCommerce, including Badgley Mischka, Rohan and White Stuff. For more information on BigCommerce’s ecommerce solutions for fashion and apparel, click here.
