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.

Australian Startup Mazaal AI Aims to Bring Human-Like Decision-Making to Business Automation

Australian Startup Mazaal AI Aims to Bring Human-Like Decision-Making to Business Automation

When Enod Bataa founded Mazaal AI in 2023, he saw a gap between what artificial intelligence promised and what most businesses could realistically use.

The Australian startup, backed by NVIDIA and supported by the New South Wales government, has built a platform that allows companies to automate routine tasks simply by describing them in plain English. No coding, no technical expertise required.

Bataa, a former McKinsey QuantumBlack consultant and AI researcher, said his experience working with global firms revealed a consistent problem: “Businesses were drowning in repetitive work, but the tools to automate it were either too complex or too expensive.”

Mazaal AI’s “AI builder” feature lets users converse with the system to create automations on the spot. The company says its approach goes beyond traditional workflow automation by introducing what it calls “agentic” AI, digital assistants that can not only process information but also make context-aware decisions.

For example, when a customer requests a bulk discount outside standard policy, a Mazaal AI agent might check inventory, review order history, draft a personalized reply, and then pause to ask a manager whether to approve the discount. “It’s a human-in-the-loop design,” Bataa said. “You stay in control, but you don’t have to handle every step yourself.”

Built on Advanced Retrieval-Augmented Generation technology, Mazaal AI agents combine large language models with a company’s internal knowledge base, allowing them to retrieve information from documents, databases, or websites and trigger real-world actions, from creating service tickets to scheduling follow-ups. The system learns from corrections and adapts over time.

The technology is being used by small retailers to manage inventory, service providers to streamline onboarding, and larger enterprises to speed up customer support. Bataa says the goal is to make sophisticated AI “as accessible as hiring a new team member.”

Mazaal AI joins a growing list of companies betting that the next wave of workplace automation will rely on AI systems that can think more like employees, blending decision-making with execution, rather than simply moving data from one program to another.
