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.

Western Alliance Bank’s and Digital Disbursements’ Triangle of Fraud Protection Named as Innovation of the Year by American Banker

Digital Disbursements and ClaimScore Recognized in Annual Award’s Cybersecurity and Fraud Category

Western Alliance Bank’s subsidiary Digital Disbursements, the leading digital payments platform for the class action legal industry and part of the bank’s Juris Banking Group offering, today announced that their Anti-Fraud Triangle innovation, developed in partnership with ClaimScore, a data-driven fraud prevention software solution for class action settlements, has been selected as American Banker’s Innovation of the Year in the Cybersecurity and Fraud category. The prestigious award recognizes 2024's most groundbreaking and influential technology-focused innovations, and the teams that brought them to life at banks, financial institutions and fintechs.

The Anti-Fraud Triangle was developed in response to the 19,000% surge in fraudulent class action and mass tort claims, which skyrocketed from approximately 400,000 in 2021 to more than 80 million in 2023. The integrated platform combines the respective services offered by Digital Disbursements and ClaimScore, with the variety of tools offered by the particular settlement administrator in any given case to detect and prevent waste, fraud, and abuse. The integrated solution is far more effective than the sum of the individual components: in 2024 alone, the Anti-Fraud Triangle identified and prevented more than 800 million fraudulent claims. Had all of those claims been approved, the bad actors would have received well over $100 million in fraudulent payouts.

“We are deeply honored by this recognition, which comes at a time when innovative fraud protection strategies are needed more than ever,” said Digital Disbursements Founder and Co-CEO Jeff Richardson. “Thank you to American Banker and to our partners, who entrusted us with the implementation of a modern, claimant-first solution, which was made possible through our collaboration with ClaimScore. The Anti-Fraud Triangle has endless potential both within and outside the settlement space, and we will continue to capitalize on its innovative capabilities.”

Digital Disbursements and Western Alliance Bank recently released their third annual “Digital Payments in Class Actions and Mass Torts” report, which revealed that the number of claims with significant indicia of fraud in 2024 dropped for the first time on record after the dramatic increase between 2021 and 2023.
