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.

E&S MGA Pivix Launches Casualty Program with Everspan

Pivix Specialty Insurance Services Inc. (“Pivix”), an excess and surplus lines focused managing general agent distributing exclusively through wholesale brokers, has launched a new casualty program with support from Everspan Group, a specialty property and casualty insurance platform rated A- (“Excellent”) by AM Best. Both companies are part of Ambac Financial Group (NYSE: AMBC).

The new program, which will be written on an E&S basis, provides primary general liability coverage for targeted classes of business, including contractors, real estate, hospitality, and manufacturing accounts. It is the first product from Pivix’s recently formed brokerage division.

“In light of the rapidly growing opportunity in the wholesale market for E&S products, and the need for experienced underwriters to provide product solutions within the casualty market, Primary GL made the most sense as the initial program for the brokerage platform,” said Michael Gramm, Senior Vice President and Chief Underwriting Officer-Brokerage at Pivix. “Everspan was the perfect fit as a carrier partner. Their commitment to and expertise in E&S casualty lines enabled us to quickly establish this program.”

Darwin Lucas, Chief Underwriting and Reinsurance Officer for Everspan, added, “We are excited to support the launch of this E&S casualty program. The Pivix team’s reputation and underwriting track record are exceptional, which is what Everspan seeks in a program partner. We anticipate a strong reception from the market for this product as a result of Pivix’s expertise and service-oriented approach.”

Pivix launched last fall as an E&S platform. Initially Pivix developed a contract binding program targeting small commercial businesses with property and general liability coverages, written exclusively through select wholesale brokers. The brokerage unit will target brokered E&S business produced exclusively through wholesale brokers.

“The primary general liability program is a natural starting point for building out the brokerage platform,” said Mike Miller, President and CEO of Pivix. “This program will be targeting different risks than the contract binding program, but our ability to utilize the same core technology platform will provide an immediate benefit in terms of speed and efficiency for our wholesale broker partners.”
