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.

Thread Bank Selects Finxact from Fiserv to Power Embedded Banking Strategies, Serving as a Model for Community Banks

Infinant to serve as the modern embedded banking layer to Finxact’s real-time API core

Thread Bank (“Thread” or the “Bank”) today announced that it has selected Finxact from Fiserv, Inc. (NYSE: FI), the cloud-native, real-time banking core that offers enhanced access to data, as the Bank’s core banking platform. The Finxact core will allow Thread to further execute on its strategy to deliver modern, compliant, and scalable embedded and core banking solutions, creating value for partners and providing an innovation roadmap for fellow community banks.

As the embedded banking market continues to evolve, Thread sought a modern, real-time core that could offer the Bank a homogeneous solution that will allow further scalability throughout the Bank’s deposit and payments infrastructure. Finxact’s API-first approach, combined with Fiserv’s experience in compliance, was a perfect fit for Thread’s long-term strategy.

Additionally, Thread will leverage Infinant and their Interlace Platform as the embedded banking layer for Finxact’s API core, providing Thread and its customers a modern user interface to access and manage Thread’s embedded and core banking capabilities along with payment processing.

“Our partnership with Fiserv and Infinant serves as a blueprint for community banks looking to innovate, drive new deposits, and ultimately thrive in an ever-changing landscape,” said Chris Black, CEO, President, and member of the Board of Directors of Thread. “We did extensive due diligence to find a core that could meet the breadth of our product requirements and deliver in a modern, compliant way. Ultimately, it became very clear to our team that Finxact was the best solution to meet those needs.”

“We’re energized to be working with Thread to pioneer a new vision for community banks, freeing them from geographic limitations by offering financial services through embedded partnerships,” said Sunil Sachdev, SVP and head of embedded finance at Fiserv. “Thread choosing Finxact as its core banking platform to scale its embedded banking offering for a broad range of customers demonstrates Finxact's ability to support banking, payments and data at scale.”

Bankers Helping Bankers played an instrumental role in fostering the expansion of the relationship and formalizing the shared vision between Thread, Fiserv and Infinant. The Fiserv and Infinant relationship builds on recent developments solidifying Thread as a digital community banking leader, namely the opening of the Bank’s new corporate headquarters in Nashville.
