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.

Dawn Foods Bakes Improved Sales With Algolia Search

AI-powered search capabilities increased Dawn Foods’ sales, with search volume increasing twentyfold

Algolia, the AI-native search and discovery platform trusted by 18,000 businesses and millions of developers worldwide, announced today its collaboration with Dawn Foods, a global bakery manufacturer and ingredients supplier for more than 50,000 artisanal and retail bakers and food service leaders. Dawn Foods’ choice of Algolia is enhancing its search performance resulting in the elimination of search abandonment by customers, and the elevation of consumer experiences across the company’s global portfolio by listening to and prioritizing the voice of the customer.

Dawn Foods: Crafting the Future of eCommerce

Looking to future-proof their digital experience, Dawn Foods’ team made a bold move. They embraced a headless, composable MACH architecture, choosing only best-in-class technologies:

  • commercetools for their eCommerce platform
  • Contentstack for content management
  • Algolia for AI-powered search

Mike Callahan, Director of Digital Delivery, Dawn Foods, noted: “The shift to a composable MACH architecture has empowered us with a seamless and scalable digital ecosystem built for the future. Algolia’s AI Search Platform made our 10,000 SKU catalog effortlessly navigable, delivering relevant results in an instant and transforming our customer experience.”

The results speak for themselves: higher search relevancy, lower abandonment, and increased conversions. For three consecutive years, Dawn Food sales have soared, adoption targets exceeded, and every net sales goal has been met.

Callahan added: “Fast, relevant search should be a given. When bakers can’t find what they need quickly, we’re not just slowing them down—we’re making their jobs harder. Partnering with Algolia has allowed us to move beyond basic search functionality. We’re now redefining B2B excellence, leveraging AI to drive an advanced and future-ready business model.”

Michelle Adams, President of Field Operations, Algolia said: “Algolia has been instrumental in Dawn Foods' journey to a headless, composable MACH architecture, empowering the company with the technology freedom and flexibility to achieve its goals and better serve its customers.”

In just two years, searches across Dawn Foods' website skyrocketed from under one million to nearly 20 million, with conversion rates rising alongside. Over four years, key metrics like time per session and time to order—crucial for efficiency—dropped by 30%.

Michelle Adams continued: “Even with this surge in usage, Algolia’s fast and lightweight API has kept latency impressively low, ensuring a seamless experience for every user.”
