About Cabling Installation & Maintenance:

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.

Shopmonkey selects Affirm to bring flexible and transparent payment options to auto shops

Partnership enables U.S. and Canadian auto shops to offer Affirm’s pay-over-time plans when invoicing customers

Shopmonkey, the cloud-based auto shop management platform, announced today that it has selected Affirm (NASDAQ: AFRM), the payment network that empowers consumers and helps merchants drive growth, as one of its pay-over-time providers. Affirm is now a default payment method for auto shops using Shopmonkey’s payment processing solution, enabling them to offer flexible and transparent financing options to eligible customers.

Thousands of auto shops – the majority of which are small and medium sized businesses – use Shopmonkey’s payment processing solution to support their business needs. Through this partnership, eligible U.S. and Canadian auto shops can seamlessly offer Affirm’s pay-over-time plans when invoicing their customers. By selecting Affirm, approved customers will have the option to split the total cost of their auto repair bill into budget-friendly biweekly or monthly payment plans, for as low as 0% APR. Customers will never be charged late or hidden fees when they pay with Affirm.

“We believe the automotive care experience starts the minute you drive the car off the lot until you turn the keys over to the next owner. Offering flexible payment options like Affirm is a natural extension of that belief – helping empower our customers to deliver a superior automotive care experience,” said Travis Bickham, Chief Commercial Officer at Shopmonkey. “We are excited to partner with Affirm given their commitment to bringing innovative customer-centric solutions to market.”

“By bringing Affirm’s flexible, transparent payment options to the Shopmonkey platform, we’re helping thousands of small and medium-sized auto shops better serve their customers,” said Wayne Pommen, Chief Revenue Officer at Affirm. “Car owners – who often spend nearly $800 per year on maintenance – get a responsible way to spread out the cost, making it easier to pay for the services they need. This in turn will lead to improved customer satisfaction and long-term growth for auto shops.”
