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.

Blue Ridge Global Launches ERP Connector to Streamline Planning Integration

New platform cuts implementation time by 30% to deliver fast ROI

Blue Ridge Global, the AI-driven SaaS leader in supply chain planning, today announced the launch of its ERP Connector, a set of managed integration connectors that eliminates manual data wrangling and accelerates planning success. Purpose-built for mid-market distributors and manufacturers, the ERP Connector seamlessly syncs Blue Ridge’s platform with 40+ leading ERP systems, speeding up implementation and driving faster ROI.

Built for operational agility and enterprise scalability, the connector provides standard data mapping, APIs and connectors to establish data pipelines, and tools to adjust to specific ERPs. This accelerates onboarding and improves ongoing planning data processes with automated, bi-directional synchronization, and error monitoring.

“ERP integration has long been a barrier to managing data efficiently and effectively in supply chain planning across one or multiple ERP or master data systems,” said Ken Carpenter, Chief Product Officer at Blue Ridge Global. “With our ERP Connector customers can achieve faster and more reliable ROI on their data and ERPs by cutting implementation times significantly and more confidently managing their data stores and pipelines. It further drives our goal of Blue Ridge being your trusted platform when it comes to creating and managing your critical supply chain data.”

The Blue Ridge ERP Connector offers:

  • Bi-directional data sync for master, transactional, and planning data
  • Near real-time updates via parallel processing
  • Advanced error handling and monitoring, including edge case detection
  • Standardized deployment templates with schema flexibility
  • Certified integration architecture with partners, including NetSuite via the SuiteApp Marketplace
  • Flat-file data transfer and custom-scripting methods

These capabilities create flexibility to manage your data requirements, reduce IT overhead, prevent data delays, and support a wide range of use cases including daily forecasting, inventory and order syncs.

“This eliminates friction in integration and shortens project timelines,” said Todd Rankin, Head of Channel & Partnerships at Blue Ridge Global. “It makes implementation more efficient and helps customers realize value faster, a major differentiator in today’s market.”
