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.

Prudential Financial introduces Stop Loss Insurance

New offering allows employers with self-funded medical plans to manage the risk of high medical claim payouts

Prudential Financial, Inc. (NYSE: PRU) has introduced a Stop Loss Insurance product aimed at helping protect companies with self-funded employee medical plans against catastrophic medical claim payouts.

With Stop Loss Insurance, employers can set a cap on their potential employee healthcare spend and transfer some of the claims volatility to The Prudential Insurance Company of America.

“Self-funding medical plans can be a great way to save money and gain more control for employers, but it means taking on the potential risk from catastrophic claims,” said Jess Gillespie, head of Prudential Group Insurance Product & Underwriting. “Prudential is offering Stop Loss Insurance to help solve the No. 1 driver of employer benefit costs, which is their medical spend.”1

Prudential’s Stop Loss product suite is available to employers with self-funded medical and prescription drug plans that cover at least 100 employees. That includes Specific Stop Loss Insurance coverage for medical and prescription drug claims as well as Aggregate Stop Loss Insurance for medical, prescription drug, dental, vision, and short-term disability claims.

“We’re excited to help solve this financial challenge for employers,” said Jon Trevisan, head of Group Insurance Distribution. “We have a strong brand backed by Prudential’s strong financial position. We also have nearly 150 years of expertise, competitive rates and flexible policy options which will be attractive to employers.”

Prudential has added new members to its dedicated Stop Loss team, including Robert Melillo, vice president, head of Stop Loss Distribution, and Keshav Nair, vice president, Stop Loss Operations. “We’re building a dedicated Stop Loss distribution team to bring a consultative, problem-solving approach to our clients’ complex Stop Loss challenges,” said Melillo.
