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.

The Different Tools Staff Scheduling Software Uses

Staff scheduling software is an important tool for managing the schedules of employees. This type of software was not available for decades and there have been many changes to employee scheduling software over the years. Now, there are several different types of employee monitoring software.

Each type of software has its strengths and weaknesses. Staff scheduling software was one of the most complex programs in years; however, as technologies have advanced, this type of software can now be used by even the smallest office.

The main purpose of staff scheduling software was to track the time spent working on individual tasks. Today, this same idea can be applied to more detailed scheduling. The software may allow employees to set up their projects. It may be a project they are already working on or a task they would like to work on. The staff scheduling software will email the employee a set date and time to work on their project.

An important part of the software is the ability to email employee’s lists of upcoming events. This type of software may allow each employee to add and delete events as they please; they no longer have to input this information by hand. This saves time for both employees and management.

Many staff scheduling software programs have the facility for storing employee data in a database. When an event occurs that requires additional information, it may be searched for in the database. The program then lets the employee know what information they need to provide to the company.

For example, if the date and time of the meeting are 15 minutes after the scheduled time, an employee can input this information. This will save the company time because they won’t have to go back and add the time of the meeting to the schedule.

Another tool in the software is the ability to keep track of the employee’s leave information. Many companies use the same system that keeps track of their hours worked. The system not only tells them how many hours are left but also tells them when they are going to be paid.

This tool may help both the human resources department and the payroll department. By having the exact amount of time available, they can be sure they have enough hours to get all employees enough hours needed.

There are many other tools in staff scheduling software that are designed to make managing employees easier. If an employee leaves the company, it can be quickly reported. If there has been a problem with an employee, the software may be programmed to automatically email the employee. Another way this software is used is to schedule future meetings or calls with various clients. These can be easily scheduled and anyone needs to have complete access to them at any given time.
