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.

Xometry Updates Process Recommender To Its AI-Powered Instant Quoting Engine

  • New Process Recommender Instantly Analyzes Geometric Features Of CAD Files On The Xometry Instant Quoting Engine® Making it Easier To Match Custom Parts to Manufacturing Processes
  • Xometry Is Continuously Deploying New Auto-Quote Methods And Models To Its Two-Sided Digital Marketplace Benefiting Buyers And Suppliers And Strengthening Supply Chains
  • With Its AI-Driven Marketplace, Supplier Services Platform And Suite Of Cloud-Based Tools, Xometry Is Rapidly Reshaping The Manufacturing Industry And Digitizing The Once-Lengthy Design-To-Production Process

NORTH BETHESDA, Md., Dec. 05, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) --  Xometry (NASDAQ: XMTR), the global AI-powered tech marketplace connecting enterprise buyers with suppliers of manufacturing services, today announced an updated process recommender to its AI-powered Instant Quoting Engine, expanding coverage of manufacturing processes and improving accuracy.

As CAD files are uploaded to the Xometry marketplace, the new process recommender instantly analyzes the geometric features of the file, identifies the most appropriate manufacturing process for the customer, and configures their quote. The new recommender is also trained to assess a customer’s specific quote and order history, ensuring the best match for the buyer.

“Xometry is continuously deploying new machine learning models within its AI-powered Instant Quoting Engine for the benefit of both buyers and suppliers on our two-sided marketplace,” said Brendan Sterne, Chief Product Officer at Xometry. “Given the expansion of manufacturing processes supported by the Xometry marketplace, the updated process recommender is an important component to make it easier to match customer parts with the right manufacturing process. This helps engineers bring their custom-manufacturing projects to market faster.”

The new process recommender will analyze customer CAD files, and suggest the best process for the part, from processes including CNC machining, Injection Molding, Sheet Cutting, Die-Casting, Extrusion (plastic and metal), Stamping, 3D Printing and more. Xometry’s two-sided digital marketplace is transforming manufacturing with innovative AI and machine-learning technologies that are rapidly digitizing processes that once took weeks to get from design to production. The deployment of new instant-quoting and fulfillment capabilities enables Xometry to offer an ever-expanding menu of manufacturing technologies.

The new process recommender was developed in-house by Xometry and reflects the company’s ongoing commitment to the development and deployment of new auto-quote methods and models. Last month, in a separate move, Xometry announced a partnership with Google Cloud to leverage Google’s Vertex AI to help accelerate the deployment of new methods and models.

Xometry’s two-sided marketplace plays a vital role in the rapid digital transformation of the manufacturing industry. Xometry’s proprietary technology shortens development cycles, drives efficiencies within corporate environments and helps companies create resilient supply chains. Xometry’s product portfolio includes: its industry leading digital marketplace; popular Thomasnet.com® industrial sourcing platform, and cloud-based tools, including Xometry Teamspace, centralized project management software for large, mission-critical projects.
