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.

New Labeling System with Intelligent Motion Technology Delivers Precise, Efficient Performance Based on Ten Years of Success

Innovative Videojet® 9560 system prints and applies labels to outer cases, boxes and shrink wrap

Engineered without the mechanisms that require routine manual adjustments and that may cause label jams in other label print and apply (LPA) systems, the Videojet 9550 has proven to be a dominant solution in the labeling industry over the last ten years. Videojet Technologies, a global leader in coding, marking and printing solutions, has now upgraded this solution with the introduction of the Videojet 9560 print and apply labeler featuring increased processing speeds and expanded connectivity options.

Marcy Vanderbei, global business unit manager at Videojet said, “The evolution of the 9550 to the new 9560 with Direct Apply technology benefits end-of-line packaging operations with faster processing speeds and easy integration into existing production and control networks. Each improvement is a testament to our dedication to the research and development of solutions that solve our customers’ coding and labeling challenges.”

Direct Apply is a unique on-demand labeling method that allows accurate label placement on the package. The system works by simultaneously printing and applying labels onto the top or side of a passing pack without the need for a tamp or air blast applicator. Achieving speeds up to 150 packs per minute for typical 4” x 6” GS1 barcode labels, the Videojet 9560 maintains throughput, even when packs accumulate.

The Videojet 9560 features the patented Videojet Intelligent Motion™ technology for automatic and precise control of the entire system while targeting zero unscheduled downtime on production lines. This advanced labeling technology improves operating performance with a direct drive that controls label speed and position without clutches, rollers or adjustments. An electronic supply reel automatically adjusts and maintains label tension irrespective of speed and label size from the start to the end of a reel. A simple web path enables label and ribbon changes in less than 60 seconds.

With its fluency in common label design software and printer languages, users switching to the new 9560 will have no need to rebuild job files or retrain. Compared to the 9550, the new 9560 is engineered with increased programmable I/O options for integration with more data protocols including Ethernet/IP™ and PROFINET®.

Operators of the 9560 can take advantage of a large 8-inch user interface for job selection and system control. Its built-in Code Assurance features help get the right label on the right case, time after time. Operators can also view videos for guidance through routine maintenance tasks. The interface can be located up to 10 meters away from the 9560, easing integration and enhancing usability. In addition, a web server​ gives access to the user interface via other devices on the same network.

A key upgrade of the 9560 labeling system is its embedded Wi-Fi connectivity for secure remote access to manufacturers’ internal networks. Files can be easily sent to the labeling system without the need of a USB drive. Additionally, both Videojet experts and in-house technicians can gain access to VideojetConnect™ Remote Service, where available, for troubleshooting and real-time information on the system’s status.

“This new system operates without the manual adjustments and added parts that are the main causes of daily operational problems with traditional labeling machines,” said Vanderbei. “Now with upgraded features, the Videojet 9560 with Direct Apply label placement is taking end-of-line efficiency and reliability to a new level.”
