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.

Matterport and FBS Partner to Introduce Listing-Completion Feature, Automatically Populating Property Data and Media Assets from Digital Twins, Leapfrogging Current Listing Process

SUNNYVALE, Calif., June 27, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Matterport, Inc. (Nasdaq: MTTR), announced its partnership with FBS, the leading innovator of Multiple Listing Service (MLS) technology and owner of the Flexmls platform. FBS represents more than 320,000+ real estate professionals across the US and offers a comprehensive real estate technology platform that includes the Flexmls® system. Flexmls is a powerful MLS platform designed to provide real estate professionals with access to property listings, market data, and tools for managing their business. A fully mobile MLS system, the Flexmls Platform gives real estate professionals the autonomy to run their business on their terms.

This partnership enables Flexmls users to easily upload their Matterport digital twins, and autofill dimensional data from those twins directly into the Flexmls platform with just one click. Flexmls users will also gain efficiency through the seamless upload of Matterport media, including photos, floor plans, and videos.

Flexmls users are now able to auto-fill dimensional data directly from their Matterport digital twins, including room name, length, and width, and automatically populate that data in the Flexmls interface. Matterport’s AI-powered Property Intelligence automatically extracts measurements, dimensions, and room names from Matterport digital twins, providing prospective home buyers with accurate dimensional property data. This eliminates manual data entry for agents and back office staff, saving time and minimizing errors and omissions.

The integration and launch of these features underscore a mutual commitment to innovate, add value to and improve the agent + buying experience, democratize access to data, and set new standards for the listing process. "This integration with Matterport furthers FBS's mission to help our MLS customers aggregate the highest quality data and media for the benefit of their members and consumers. Our customers have been manually adding Matterport digital twins to Flexmls for years and, on the surface, this integration simply makes what they're already doing easier. FBS is always excited to make our customers' work easier but this integration goes far beyond that by increasing data quality with room and dimension data and automatically adding photos, floor plans, video, and photos in one process without our customers having to do any extra work. Equally important, this integration provides the license terms needed to include this rich content in our customers' MLS compilations, enabling them to remain the premier source of real estate data and media in their markets - meaningful innovation that benefits real estate practitioners and consumers," said Michael Wurzer, FBS President and CEO.

Dimensional data enhances the overall listing, benefitting both the listing agent and potential buyers who gain a deeper understanding of the property's layout and size. This information supports informed decision-making while helping them envision living in the space, factors that can simplify and expedite the buying process.

“Since day one, our mission has been to fundamentally transform how people understand and access the built world. Our 3D digital twin technology set the industry standard for the virtual tour, and now we’re automatically delivering precise property information to Flexmls customers for any type of property anywhere in the world,” said RJ Pittman, Chairman and CEO, Matterport. “Across the globe, Matterport serves nearly one billion virtual tours each year significantly enhancing the experience of exploring potential dream homes from afar. Our advancements in AI, automation, and property insights, when combined with our partnership with FBS, offer a solution that saves time by automating property data entry, enabling FBS's customers to better serve their clients with efficiency and ease.”
