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.

Uses Real-Time Data To Finish Task With Online Scheduling Software

Using scheduling software helps ensure that agents are not wasting resources by completing tasks that can be done faster or by someone else. These advanced scheduling applications allow agents to manage multiple farm jobs at the same time so that they can focus their attention on each job correctly.

Another use for scheduling software uses artificial intelligence to perform scheduling functions such as the worst hours to perform certain tasks and the best times to perform other tasks. This artificial intelligence can be used to make scheduling decisions as to when it is best to maximize revenues by reducing customer service calls.

These decisions are made based on historical data and demand by customers. Because these decisions are made with artificial intelligence, they can also be adjusted as the business changes. Agents can make adjustments to their schedules whenever they see fit to allow agents to better perform their jobs while increasing revenues.

Field service management software applications are designed to manage scheduling, inventory control, billing, pick and place, and much more. Most of these applications are used in the farming and ranching industry. Advanced scheduling software uses real-time data from the field to accurately estimate how long it will take an agent to complete an assigned task and move onto the next job.

Health care businesses also make use of scheduling software uses for a variety of reasons. One reason is to reduce overtime costs. Overtime, or extra work, costs employers more money than normal because they have to pay employees who are late for work.

To avoid overtime, human resources departments make every effort to clock in employees early, but overtime can still occur if employees aren’t scheduled ahead of time. By using automatic scheduling, healthcare employers can avoid having to deal with overtime by performing all scheduling ahead of time and only scheduling employees overtime when necessary.

Using this type of software also allows employers to accurately calculate hours worked by employees. An accurate schedule will ensure that employees are working according to the specifications of their shifts and the company. This prevents employees from taking advantage of breaks or early bird times that give them the freedom to choose their working hours. Allocating shift schedules accurately reduces the amount of time an employee must wait before they can return to work.

Another way that scheduling software uses the zoom shift function is to generate printable weekly and monthly employee schedules. Using a computer program to create and print employee schedules, rather than printing individual pages of paper, speeds up the process of generating employee schedules and reduces paper waste.

When the workforce is only distributed throughout the home base, the process of printing individual pages of paper becomes very time-consuming, and it is easy to understand that the more paper is wasted, the more it costs the employer.
