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.

Ricoh Modernizes to the Cloud to Informatica's AI-Powered Intelligent Data Management Cloud Platform to Improve Digital Workflow Experience

Informatica (NYSE: INFA), a leader in enterprise AI-powered cloud data management, today announced that Ricoh Company, Ltd., a leading provider of document management solutions, has chosen Informatica's Intelligent Data Management Cloud™ (IDMC) to accelerate the company’s GLIDER data infrastructure project which will support the overall business transformation of Ricoh becoming a digital services company.

The GLIDER project calls for consolidation of raw data from sales, inventory and operations, from Ricoh Group operating over 50 companies globally, and establishes a system for centralized data processing and analysis at the headquarters. GLIDER aims to promote Return On Invested Capital (ROIC) management by significantly reducing the man-hours and time required to process and analyze raw data from the Group. As Ricoh moves its on-premises workloads to the cloud, the company decided to modernize from Informatica’s PowerCenter on-premises environment to Informatica's AI-powered, cloud-native IDMC platform while fully reusing PowerCenter assets in the cloud, saving migration cost, time and effort. This decision followed a successful evaluation at the company’s North America site.

“We have chosen to modernize our current Informatica PowerCenter solution to an AI-powered, cloud-native Informatica’s IDMC because of IDMC’s platform neutrality, multi-cloud support, superior functionality and performance, including the ability to accelerate the conversion of workloads from PowerCenter to IDMC in a matter of minutes while supporting seamless and timeliness of our business operations across the globe,” said Yoshinobu Hamanaka, Deputy General Manager of Process, IT and Data Management, Digital Strategy Department, Corporate IT Management Center, Ricoh Company, Ltd.

“Above all, IDMC is the global standard for our data integration and management platform because it offers an easy-to-use user interface, a low-code/no-code environment and the scalability and flexibility we need to adapt to our changing business environment. It lessens our user’s daily workloads and improves productivity and operational efficiency, ensuring continuous innovation and service improvement for better digital workflow experience, as a result of empowering our IT and business users to drive trusted data from the cloud,” Mr. Hamanaka added.

With centralized data management, users have the ability to access high-quality, trustworthy data related to customer information, respond quickly to customer needs and offer customized service delivery. Additionally, IDMC’s reliability and global support enable the company to offer consistent services and improve customer satisfaction. The users can manage and process data more efficiently and flexibly, and increase the speed and efficiency of their operations.

Taito Kozawa, Country Manager and President of Informatica Japan, commented, “Informatica Japan is pleased to support Ricoh in their data integration project, enabling the customer to drive data transformation at a global scale to achieve operational excellence across their group of companies. We are honored that our industry-leading AI-powered IDMC platform has been chosen to help Ricoh simplify data management and support them in delivering positive outcomes in customer experience and service quality.”
