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.

Duck Creek and Artigem join forces to provide real-time, accurate jewelry valuation for customers

Boston, Aug. 14, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Duck Creek Technologies, the intelligent solutions provider defining the future of property and casualty (P&C) and general insurance, announces its partnership with technology-enabled contents and jewelry service provider Artigem LLC (“Artigem”). Through this collaboration, Duck Creek customers will gain access to Artigem's innovative SpeedCheck software, enabling them to update the value of scheduled jewelry items conveniently and accurately in real time. This solution empowers underwriters to maintain precise valuations without being affected by market fluctuations.

Duck Creek's commitment to enhancing customer experiences and enabling insurers to make quicker and smarter decisions is further solidified by this alliance with Artigem. With the aid of SpeedCheck, customers can rest assured that in the unfortunate event of loss, theft, or damage to a valued jewelry piece, the replacement will be not only acceptable but also exceptional.

“Artigem’s SpeedCheck software ensures an insurer’s existing book of scheduled jewelry gets and stays at an accurate insured to value," said Artigem's CEO, Kurt Artinger. "We don’t value the house on year one and then let it sit on the books for 20 years. So why is this an acceptable business practice for jewelry, which experiences greater price fluctuation than home values? SpeedCheck software allows underwriting and agents to confidently price jewelry without a current appraisal and maintains the pricing for the item’s life.”

“Artigem has been focused on jewelry valuation for over 20 years, and we are proud to bring their company and expert system into Duck Creek’s robust partner ecosystem,” said Robert Fletcher, Sr. Partner Manager, Duck Creek Technologies. “As we continue to grow our ecosystem and offer new and exciting solutions, we look for differentiated partners like Artigem that extend our value proposition and delight customers.”

Accurate valuations for personal property, such as jewelry, are crucial for the insurance industry's fundamental purpose. The collaboration between Duck Creek and Artigem's SpeedCheck will address this industry-wide need by providing carriers with the most up-to-date valuations for their scheduled items. This partnership marks a significant step forward in revolutionizing the insurance industry, combining the expertise of Duck Creek Technologies and the cutting-edge technology of Artigem to deliver exceptional solutions and unparalleled customer satisfaction.
