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.

ArcBest Introduces Latest Vaux Vision Advancements and Key Leadership Progression

ArcBest® (Nasdaq: ARCB), an integrated logistics company, today announced progress on its initial Vaux VisionTM pilots, and the appointment of Brian Nachtigall as General Manager of Vaux, effective May 28.

Vaux Vision, 3D perception technology that transforms forklifts into intelligent mobile dimensioners, was announced in February. It is currently being piloted by various end users, including ArcBest LTL carrier ABF Freight. Initial results from these pilots confirm Vaux Vision’s ability to efficiently capture accurate freight dimensions with in-motion processing, even in fast-paced, industrial environments. These findings will inform the next iteration of Vaux Vision’s capabilities, which will include deeper shipment insights such as identifying hazardous materials, non-stackable freight and packaging integrity issues, as well as automated freight scanning for improved productivity and accuracy.

Vaux Vision is the latest addition to ArcBest’s Vaux technology suite of award-winning hardware and software, which transforms material handling processes in warehouses, distribution centers and industrial facilities. The suite includes the Vaux Freight Movement System™, Vaux Smart Autonomy™ and Vaux Vision™ — all engineered to enhance safety, efficiency and productivity.

As General Manager, Brian Nachtigall will drive the vision and operational execution of the Vaux technology suite, ensuring alignment with ArcBest’s growth strategy and growing revenue from this transformational offering. Nachtigall brings over twenty years of experience in roles across warehouse automation, product marketing and strategy consulting, with expertise in machine vision, advanced robotics and industrial automation. Most recently, he served as director of corporate strategy consulting, industrials and energy practice for EY Parthenon, and has held prior leadership roles at Brooks Automation, Boston Dynamics, Cognex Corporation, and Bain & Company. Nachtigall has successfully led teams in building and scaling advanced technology products that support a variety of customer needs.

“Brian’s unique experience makes him ideally suited to meet our customers’ needs and profitably scale our Vaux business,” said Dennis Anderson, ArcBest chief innovation officer. “Brian will be an excellent addition to our team as we continue to provide our customers with future-ready supply chain solutions.”

Nachtigall joins the organization in advance of Craig Wahlmeier’s retirement. Wahlmeier, vice president – innovation and operations for Vaux, will retire in February 2026 after a 38-year career with ArcBest. Craig will continue in his current role, reporting to Brian and supporting a smooth transition until his retirement.

“Through nearly four decades with the company, Craig has been instrumental in ArcBest’s innovation progress,” said Anderson. “Most recently, Craig has helped lead the charge to take Vaux from an idea to a full suite of game-changing tech. I thank Craig for his dedication and service to our company, and I wish him and his family the very best in his next chapter.”
