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.

Automate Vendor Management Processes with VIP Software’s New Guidewire Marketplace Integration

Guidewire (NYSE: GWRE) and VIP Software™ announced that VIP Software’s new Ready for Guidewire validated accelerator is now available to ClaimCenter users in the Guidewire Marketplace.

VIP Software is a leading billing and vendor management platform that helps insurers proactively manage loss costs and reduce claims leakage through automation and analytics. Its BAP™ solution enables insurers to automate the creation and approval of vendor invoices, auditing all invoices against fee schedules. It also automatically allocates all loss adjustment expenses to the proper claim files.

With the VIP Software BAP Accelerator for ClaimCenter, insurers can:

  • Reduce manual processes with automatic data transfer between ClaimCenter and VIP Software;
  • Automatically create vendor invoices leveraging contracted fee schedules to facilitate accurate, quick payment and prevent late loss cost development; and
  • Improve straight-through-processing, leading to reduced operational costs.

VIP Software can also serve as a conduit, connecting multiple systems and further streamlining vendor management processes for insurers.

“Our technology standardizes billing and vendor management for insurers, enabling them to streamline validation, audit, reconciliation, and allocation processes for their vendor billing,” said Artie Makris, Vice President, Marketing, VIP Software. “The VIP Software accelerator empowers our shared customers to manage vendors and loss costs across all lines of business, all without leaving ClaimCenter.”

“Congratulations to VIP Software on the release of its new ClaimCenter integration,” said Will Murphy, Vice President, Global Technology Alliances, Guidewire. “VIP Software provides a proactive solution that helps strengthen insurer-vendor relationships by providing transparency and consistency through technology, without the need for manual intervention.
