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.

LambdaTest Launches SmartIgnore in BETA- Advancing Visual Testing with AI-Powered Precision

San Francisco, Oct. 03, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Oct 03, 2024, Noida/San Francisco: LambdaTest, a leading cloud-based unified testing platform, announces the launch of Smart Ignore, an innovative feature within its SmartUI visual testing solution, aimed at addressing the challenge of false positives caused by content displacement in dynamic web applications. This new feature significantly enhances visual testing accuracy by intelligently masking layout shifts, enabling users to focus on genuine content changes that impact the user experience.

Unlike traditional pixel-to-pixel comparison, which often triggers false positives due to minor, irrelevant changes like content shifts or screen size adjustments, AI-based Smart Ignore takes a more intelligent approach. By distinguishing between content changes and element shifts, Smart Ignore reduces visual noise, allowing testers to identify only meaningful differences. This results in a more efficient testing process, eliminating unnecessary distractions and making it easier to focus on impactful changes that require attention.

By leveraging artificial intelligence, the displacement-aware comparison feature further enhances this capability by highlighting only the areas with true content changes in scenarios where large portions of a page are affected by shifts. This targeted visual testing makes Smart Ignore particularly useful for pages with frequent updates or dynamic content, ensuring only the most relevant differences are brought to the user's attention.

The feature is beneficial across various use cases. For instance, in content management systems, Smart Ignore helps testers focus on actual content updates by hiding displacement differences from added or removed articles or images. Or, in e-commerce platforms, it ignores shifts caused by product changes, allowing teams to focus on updates in listings or descriptions. During large-scale UI changes, it filters out layout shifts to make identifying specific modifications easier. And, for CSS changes that affect font sizes, or when elements are added/removed, Smart Ignore hides displacement shifts, highlighting only meaningful differences and reducing visual noise.

Currently, in its beta phase, Smart Ignore can be enabled for organizations at no additional cost.

"We're thrilled to introduce Smart Ignore as part of our SmartUI offering. Our goal is to simplify visual testing and minimize distractions caused by irrelevant layout changes, enabling our users to concentrate on what truly matters: delivering an outstanding user experience," said Mayank Bhola, Co-Founder and Head of Product at LambdaTest.
