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.

Introducing TD SYNNEX PartnerFirst, a Unified Digital Portal for Enhanced Partner Experience

A milestone in TD SYNNEX’s digital strategy, new comprehensive commerce features now available for North American partners, other regional availability coming soon

TD SYNNEX (NYSE: SNX) today introduced TD SYNNEX PartnerFirst, an evolution of the customer digital experience that will bring together platforms and capabilities through a unified global framework with regional customization. An important milestone in the TD SYNNEX omnichannel digital strategy, PartnerFirst is designed to simplify processes and support partners throughout their journeys by integrating people, platform, services and more.

“Digitalization is imperative to putting our partners first by leveraging cutting-edge technologies like AI, automation, and advanced analytics to enhance our operations and customer engagement. Through this omnichannel approach, we’re able to accelerate growth and drive the critical business outcomes our partners expect,” said Patrick Zammit, CEO, TD SYNNEX. “At our core, TD SYNNEX is a collection of specialists dedicated to helping our partners unlock unique opportunities – part of what we refer to as Making IT Personal. That’s precisely what PartnerFirst delivers.”

That focus on specialization is exactly what channel partners and their end-user customers are increasingly coming to expect, according to the just-released TD SYNNEX Direction of Technology report. Specifically, “industry expertise and consultation” was the top priority valued most by end-users of the reseller partners they rely on. Moreover, channel partners demonstrated the strongest growth characteristics when offering specialized services, which could include AI, analytics and vertical-specific solutions.

New modern and intuitive features are now available for partners in North America, with global functionality to come. In the newly redesigned digital experience, TD SYNNEX has combined hardware, cloud and renewals into a cohesive digital experience across not just commerce, but including education, enablement and communities. This unified approach will reduce friction and help expedite operations, making it easier for partners to not only manage, but also expand their business and use insights to react to customer needs and truly deliver outcomes.

“PartnerFirst will bring all of the best aspects of our business together, across all platforms, programs and of course, the power of our people. Through this unified platform, we will remove complexity and improve efficiency for our partners, while continuing to provide the valuable specialized expertise required for the evolving market,” said Nate Herz, CIO, North America, TD SYNNEX.

The platform includes comprehensive management and insights with features to streamline purchasing, such as a centralized dashboard, intelligent search functionality and actionable insights to assist partners in making quick decisions. In addition to the best-in-class commerce capabilities, PartnerFirst also provides access to solution exploration, training and enablement, partner health and fitness, community and loyalty programs. Artificial intelligence is used to offer personalized recommendations and identify opportunities. These features are intended to help partners work more efficiently and effectively in a competitive market.

More than 100 TD SYNNEX PartnerLINK members piloted PartnerFirst and have given critical input on the features and functionality that have shaped development.

“The digital services that TD SYNNEX provides to us are critically important. As we continue to grow and as technology continues to evolve, we are now asked to be everything to everyone. PartnerFirst allows us to bring everything we need into one platform,” said Adam Sprague, CEO of BrunNet, solution provider and TD SYNNEX partner. “It's helping us do our jobs better, more efficiently. And that's what it's all about. If we are more efficient, we can make more money, and we can grow.”
