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.

Entrust Enables European Issuers to Create Their Own NFC Issuer Wallet on iOS Devices

Solution Enables Financial Institutions to Enable Their Own Wallet With a Fully Branded Experience

Entrust, a global leader in identity-centric security solutions, has announced the launch of the NFC Issuer Wallet Solution for iOS, allowing European financial institutions to build their own wallet within their banking app, in addition to deploying the Apple Pay Wallet.

"Mobile NFC payment, or tap-to-pay, is a preferred payment method for a lot of consumers. Due to the absence of any existing alternative on iOS, Apple Pay has become one of the preferred wallets worldwide. This launch allows financial institutions to build their own digital wallets within their banking apps, including on iOS devices," explained Nicolas Bruley, Vice President of Digital Cards at Entrust.

"This functionality, which has been available on the Android operating system for several years. is now available on iOS following a July 2024 decision by the European Commission mandating that Apple open the access to the NFC input on iOS devices in Host Card Emulation (HCE) mode, free of charge, amid a four-year anti-trust investigation. The decision marks a significant shift in the market and provides a substantial opportunity for financial institutions to enhance their services and innovate within the financial services sector, regardless of what mobile device the user has. We are thrilled to offer financial institutions the ability to create their own wallet for iOS, after our success on Android since 2016, spanning over 30 countries."

By turning mobile banking apps into digital wallets on Apple devices. the Entrust NFC Issuer Wallet Solution for iOS enables financial institutions to offer:

  • Enhanced customer convenience with digitized payment cards and tap-and-pay for both Apple and Android smartphones
  • Full control of the customer experience, which is very similar to that of Apple Pay, including fast and secure double-click NFC payment
  • Strengthened customer relationships, increasing the likelihood of becoming the preferred payment method
  • Enabling cardholders to set the bank digital wallet as the default payment app (vs. currently Apple Pay)
  • Leveraging Entrust’s expertise in digital payment enablement

Creating a custom wallet in their own banking app, issuers can offer a digital-first payment and banking experience. Through this alternative payment method for cardholders, global banks and credit unions can provide additional touchpoints and a more integrated customer experience, for a higher likelihood to be top-of-wallet. Entrust has begun piloting the NFC Issuer Wallet Solution for iOS with several Tier 1 European financial institutions.
