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.

AZO to Offer Solutions to 'Real-World Problems' at PACK Expo 2021

AZO to Offer Solutions to 'Real-World Problems' at PACK Expo 2021

Ingredient automation equipment manufacturer AZO will be present at PACK Expo 2021 to offer services and solutions across various industries.

Online PR News – 21-September-2021 – With a capital O-N, PACK Expo exclaims on their site that the Las Vegas event set for Sept. 27-29 is indeed ON. As projected registrations reach 16,000 attendees, equipment manufacturer AZO will be joining the fray to offer services and solutions for packing and processing across various industries.

Though the landscape of trade shows has experienced a lot in the time since, AZO heavily promoted the COMPONENTER Step batching system at PACK 2019. VITAL sales engineer Mike Miller says innovations like these are solving problems that manufacturers are experiencing across the board.

Manual processes are becoming more and more of a challenge, because it's increasingly difficult to find qualified labor to accomplish many tasks, Miller said. Let's take that problem out of the equation and replace it with automation.

Miller also said there are indirect benefits that arise as a result of choosing to automate processes.

Typically, when our customers implement more automation, it opens up some possibilities for how they receive materials, Miller said. At an increase in upfront cost of the capital expense, its possible to significantly reduce operational expenses over time.

The primary device AZO will promote at PACK Expo this year is the DA 360 Screener, a screening device worth noting for its integrated feeding screw. AZO application engineer Megan Wilson said the device offers additional benefits related to safety and product repeatability.

Demand has increased for all sorts of materials over the last year, Wilson said. Though the future is uncertain, AZO screeners can keep our customers quality consistent.

AZO Sales Manager for Food Group David Wall agreed that the bulk material industry has changed, but that customers needs are consistent to what they were pre-pandemic.

Customers are still looking to improve their systems in order to increase accuracy, reduce hand-weighing, automate their powder-handling and eliminate dust, Wall said. AZO offers customers well-planned powder-handling automation in order to increase efficiency and accuracy. We provide systems that perform for decades into the future.

General manager Chuck Kerwin said that, for PACK 2021, he most looks forward to the opportunity to help find solutions for old customers and friends with various manufacturing problems.

The Delta variant has slowed down much of the momentum of capital equipment orders, but manufacturers are also having real problems hiring people, Kerwin said. Those that are higher-skilled are becoming harder to find. The advantage AZO offers, aside from our equipment, is our experience solving real-world problems.

AZO, Inc. engineers, builds and installs components and complete systems for bulk material handling requirements. A wholly-owned subsidiary of AZO GmbH, the company supports U.S. customers with technical support from its Memphis location and rapid parts delivery. AZO equipment is used in companies ranging from small, family-owned businesses to the worlds best-known industrial and consumer products companies.
