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.

Conduent Introduces Rapid Assistance Solution to Help Agencies Expedite Disbursement of Emergency Relief Funds

FLORHAM PARK, N.J., May 18, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Today, Conduent Incorporated (Nasdaq: CNDT), a global technology-led business solutions and services company, announced Rapid Assistance, a new transformational payment solution. This solution can dramatically speed up the ability of government agencies and non-profit organizations to securely deliver funds to individuals. When needs are urgent, agencies now can dispatch aid to those impacted by natural disasters and other crises in a matter of minutes, rather than in days or weeks.

“Conduent’s Rapid Assistance allows governments to distribute time-critical assistance to the public by the means and manner that best meets each recipient’s needs,” said Andy Efstathiou, Research Director at NelsonHall. “Providers of relief assistance have two major challenges: setting up a payment system that is auditable and transparent and getting money to where it can help in a timely fashion. To date, relief agencies have found that a large percentage of recipients receive aid long after the event, with the people least able to shoulder the financial burden often the ones facing the longest delays. Conduent’s experience with providing child and governmental support services enables it to build this auditable, secure payment capability.”

Leveraging Conduent’s market-leading digital payment capabilities, Rapid Assistance allows federal and state agencies to instantly and securely provide relief funds. Rapid Assistance currently offers ACH direct deposit, Zelle® and real-time payments over the RTP® network, and Conduent will look to offer other future product enhancements. Combining these digital options with chip-enabled, pre-paid debit cards will help ensure that all impacted constituents can receive aid quickly regardless of their banking status. All of the payment options are facilitated via Conduent’s Integrated Payments Hub, which enables faster and easier deployment.

“This is exciting news for government agencies, charitable organizations or any other entity that desires to expedite the transfer of funds,” said Mark E. King, President of Government Solutions at Conduent. “In the case of natural disasters, it is that much more complicated if mailboxes are no longer standing, streets aren’t accessible or families are displaced. Rapid Assistance offers digital payment options that citizens want and need. Our solution will help states and their aid partners improve the speed and security of assistance.”

Conduent is a leader in government payment disbursements for federally sponsored programs including Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) and Women, Infants and Children (WIC), as well as government-initiated cash disbursements such as child support and unemployment insurance. Conduent currently delivers electronic payments for government services in 36 states, including 23 Electronic Benefit Transfer (EBT) programs.
