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.

That’s why iQmetrix, North America’s only provider of Interconnected Commerce solutions built for telecom retail, is proud to launch iQ Payments—an end-to-end, embedded, mobile-first payments solution that is part of the first wave of iQmetrix’s next-generation technology suite. This payments solution will keep retailers ahead of rapidly evolving trends, helping them to build the store of the future in conjunction with iQmetrix’s storefront and retail management technologies.

iQ Payments is a scalable solution that is designed to evolve as retail businesses grow. This solution simplifies financial services with consolidated payment processing, support, hardware, and reporting in one single vendor experience. It enables retailers to streamline payments management, reconcile more efficiently, and reduce fraud. For large-scale businesses, it also allows for enterprise scalability, enabling retailers to deploy stores quickly and efficiently while managing numerous devices across multiple locations.

iQ Payments is an essential component of a mobile-first retail strategy, as it enables stores to take payments anywhere with sleek mobile terminals and card readers, and offers one-click payment options on the customer’s own device with the integrated Remote Pay cardless solution.

Some of the benefits of iQ Payments include:

  • Streamlined checkout experiences: Attract more customers by offering all their preferred payment methods—including Google Pay, Apple Pay, and other digital wallets—either on tethered payment terminals, mobile terminals, or via their own devices with Remote Pay.
  • Everything in one place: From onboarding to hardware sourcing to payment support and everything in between, iQ Payments is the only payments platform you need, embedded seamlessly in your POS. This allows wireless retailers to reduce vendor complexity, streamline troubleshooting, and resolve issues faster with a single source of truth.
  • Strong security and fraud reduction: Stay protected with fully PCI, PSD2, and EMV-compliant payment flows. Transactions are simplified with card-not-present refunds, and fraud is easily detected and prevented in real time.
  • No more failed payments: Take payments regardless of connectivity status to either the POS or the internet, so you can always put your customers’ experience first. Ensure reliable transactions with cellular-enabled terminals and offline processing.
  • Online chargeback management: Save time and money by managing chargebacks through our centralized reporting tool. Manage your chargeback history, view data across all locations, and dispute chargebacks directly from the report.
  • Mobile-first payment terminals: Explore in-person payment devices designed to meet your retail needs. With our lightweight card reader or powerful mobile Android device, our flexible hardware options allow you to take payment anywhere.
  • Freedom to rent or buy hardware: Purchase terminals outright or lower your capex with our new monthly rental option, complete with fast replacement program.
  • No custom firmware updates: Automatically receive the latest updates remotely, with no custom firmware or software dependencies.

Lauren Wilmsen, Vice President of Product—Retail at iQmetrix, said, “We’re thrilled to be launching iQ Payments as part of the next generation of wireless retail technology from iQmetrix. This solution truly showcases that our next generation of products are geared towards addressing real pain points in the retail space, while ensuring our clients are always able to offer the best experience for their customers and their employees.”
