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.

FLYR and Riyadh Air Partner to Deliver the World’s First Digitally-Native Airline, Utilizing Offer and Order Technology

Together, Riyadh Air and FLYR are transforming the passenger experience with shopping cart capabilities for passengers at every touch point

Riyadh Air’s digital guest journey will be revealed at Future Investment Initiative Institute in Riyadh at the end of October

SAN FRANCISCO and RIYADH, Saudi Arabia, Oct. 09, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- FLYR, the technology company that unlocks freedom to innovate for the travel industry, and Riyadh Air, one of the most forward-thinking airlines globally, today announced a strategic partnership that will shape the future of passenger travel. Through this partnership Riyadh Air will become the first full service carrier to operate on a fully native offer and order based technology to deliver a modern retailing platform and experience to its customers. Both FLYR and Riyadh Air have adopted the International Air Transport Association’s (IATA) guiding business architecture principles for IT in modern airline retailing.

Comments on the news:

Tony Douglas, CEO of Riyadh Air, said: “At Riyadh Air, innovation is at the core of everything we do. We are not just launching an airline; we are launching a new era of air travel. Our partnership with FLYR empowers us to harness the latest technologies to deliver a truly personalized and seamless travel experience, exceeding expectations at every step of the journey and offering our guests a virtually unlimited range of options at every touchpoint.”

Alex Mans, Founder and CEO of FLYR, said: “Backed by the hopes, dreams, and financial might of a nation that is 92 percent urban and just 29 years of age on average, Riyadh Air embodies the future. Our partnership represents a significant step forward for the airline industry, proving that airlines can indeed say goodbye to the legacy PSS and welcome the future of retailing with Offer and Order. Together, we will set a new standard and demonstrate how a more responsive, personalized, and end-to-end travel experience is possible while simultaneously remaining compatible with technologies of the past.”

An integral part of this step forward in airline retailing is how FLYR's technology directly enables Riyadh Air to craft the digital retail experience today's travelers have come to expect from most other industries. By easily introducing key capabilities such as shopping cart-like experiences, customers can book and change plans seamlessly, accessing everything they need for their trip in one location – from Riyadh Air flights and ancillaries, to third-party integrations including hotels and activities. FLYR provides the foundation for Riyadh Air to deliver these experiences in the form of several key technology solutions:

  • Offer Management capabilities, often referred to as "making the customer promise", are delivered through Product Catalog, Stock Keeper, and Offer Translator enable Riyadh Air to deliver personalized offers to its customers across all touch points. Powered by artificial intelligence (AI), Riyadh Air is able to introduce and distribute new products in real-time, while delivering tailored options for all customers across every touchpoint.
  • Order Management capabilities built upon IATA's open ONE Order standard, will enable Riyadh Air to have order as the “single source of truth” for all downstream systems and processes. Riyadh Air is able to unify the entire customer journey including air and non-air products including airfare, seat selection, baggage, ancillaries, and third party products – into a single order. FLYR's implementation of ONE Order supports all products the airline chooses to sell, including those from third parties, to be stored and managed centrally.
  • Digital Customer Experience capabilities orchestrate modern booking flows and integrate various systems involved with the retailing flow, visibly positioning Riyadh Air as the world's first truly digitally native airline by offering exceptional and seamless travel experiences from booking to landing.

Riyadh Air is shaping the future of flying, ushering in a new era for the travel and flying experience. The world-class, full-service airline is committed to sustainability and the highest safety standards across its advanced fleet of aircraft. Collaborating closely with airline partners such as Delta Air Lines, Singapore Airlines, and more, Riyadh Air will offer a seamless, globally connected travel experience unlike any other. Riyadh Air and FLYR will reveal the comprehensive digital guest journey at the Future Investment Initiative (FII), the flagship investment conference in Riyadh, at the end of October.
