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.

Robots taking over the warehouse put new demands on your Warehouse Management System says The Mobile Robot Directory

By: IssueWire

London, United Kingdom Oct 2, 2023 (Issuewire.com) - A newly released industry study by STIQ, published by the Mobile Robot Directory, reveals that the rapid adoption of warehouse automation and robots is placing new pressures and demands on critical Warehouse Management Systems (WMS).

The study, which interviewed over 40 senior executives from the warehousing and logistics software sector, finds that as robots and automation proliferate in distribution centers and warehouses globally, organizations must re-assess their WMS strategy and capabilities to optimize increasingly automated operations.

"The robot takeover of the warehouse is well underway. As automation adoption accelerates, driven by factors like supply chain resilience, labor shortages and explosive e-commerce growth, organizations are finding they need more advanced WMS capabilities to control and optimize their complex automated processes," said Emil Hauch Jensen, Co-Founder of the Mobile Robot Directory.

Additional key findings from the STIQ study include:

- Blurring lines between WMS and WES as automation control modules like picking and packing are bundled into core WMS offerings.

- The rise of new specialized software like Warehouse Execution Systems (WES) and Robotic Control Systems (RCS) to orchestrate tasks across heterogeneous robots and automation equipment.

- Looming disruption of traditional WMS pricing models that are based on the number of users as automation reduces headcount needs.

- Continued criticality of on-premise WCS for low latency machine control, even as WMS shifts to the cloud, driving hybrid cloud architectures.

- Accelerated adoption of microservices architecture enabling rapid integration of new automation capabilities into WMS.

- Increased focus from WMS vendors on interoperability with various automation equipment brands.

"The robot takeover of the warehouse is well underway. As automation proliferates, organizations must re-assess their WMS strategy and capabilities to keep pace," Jensen emphasized. "Those that modernize their WMS will be best positioned to optimize their automated warehouse of the future."
