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.

ISG to Provide Intelligent Automation Services as Part of CoreTrust Partnership

New agreement allows ISG to support and optimize technology spending of more than 3,200 CoreTrust member companies

Information Services Group (ISG) (Nasdaq: III), a leading global technology research and advisory firm, said today that, in conjunction with CoreTrust Purchasing Group, a large Nashville-based commercial group purchasing organization, it will provide a suite of intelligent automation services to CoreTrust’s member companies.

More than 3,200 CoreTrust member companies will now be able to leverage a suite of ISG intelligent automation services, developed specifically for CoreTrust members, that includes strategic assessments, consulting, solution development and deployment, production support and ongoing center-of-excellence support, to quickly automate key business processes for greater labor and cost efficiency. The services are offered by ISG Automation, the firm’s pure-play intelligent automation business.

The suite also includes ISG Automation on Demand™, a cloud-hosted automation platform-as-a-service that allows clients to scale their use of software bots up or down depending on demand at any given moment.

“We are excited to offer a full range of our intelligent automation services to the membership of the CoreTrust group purchasing organization,” said Chip Wagner, CEO of ISG Automation. “With our deep expertise and broad-based partner ecosystem, enterprise clients trust us for all their business process automation needs and our ability to help them maximize ROI on their intelligent automation investments.”

CoreTrust drives more than $7 billion in annual indirect spending for member companies across such major verticals as retail, manufacturing, hospitality and finance. Its cooperative purchasing model delivers greater cost savings and better contract terms than companies could achieve on their own.

“With our size and scale, CoreTrust delivers price and speed advantages no other purchasing cooperative can match,” said Mahesh Shah, CEO of CoreTrust. “Our partnership with ISG represents a new strategic thrust to help our members improve the ROI on their technology spending.”

ISG is able to support enterprises that wish to build and operate their automation systems on premises as well as those that want to leverage ISG’s on-demand automation capabilities. ISG Automation supports commonly used automation tools such as robotic process automation (RPA), natural language processing (NLP) and intelligent document processing (IDP). ISG is also helping clients explore the use of generative AI and large language models to take their automation programs to the next level.

Intelligent automation is the first service ISG will offer under its partnership with CoreTrust, with additional technology and cost-optimization services planned in the future.

ISG Automation’s portfolio of services include automation assessments and strategy, proof-of-concept deployments, implementation and integration of software bots, establishment of Centers of Excellence to scale automation across the enterprise, training and organizational change management and ongoing technical support and managed services.
