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.

CORAS Agentic AI Assistant GARY Cuts CDRL Setup Time From Weeks to Minutes at U.S. Navy Program Office

MCLEAN, VA / ACCESS Newswire / September 15, 2025 / CORAS, an IL5-authorized decision intelligence platform used across the Department of War (DoW, formerly known as the Department of Defense (DoD)), announced a production implementation of its agentic AI assistant, GARY, that reduced Contract Data Requirements List (CDRL) setup from weeks to minutes at a U.S. Navy program office (USN PMO).

The program office previously estimated 120 to 160 hours of staff time and multiple coordination meetings to plan and configure its CDRL management process. Using GARY, the team completed the work in approximately 30 minutes, avoiding about $45,000 in labor and delivering a 240x to 320x productivity gain.¹

GARY analyzed the office's contract deliverables and operations, then produced a complete configuration plan in minutes. The plan covered data structures, workflows, notifications, and leadership reporting aligned to the office's requirements. The team then validated and deployed the configuration with standard CORAS tooling.

"GARY looked at the existing data and requirements and produced a complete, working configuration in minutes," said Dan Naselius, President and CTO of CORAS. "The team saw immediate value because the agent proposed the data structures, workflow steps, notifications, and dashboards they needed, and CORAS made it easy to put that plan into production."

What the Navy team received:

  1. Requirements identification based on program documentation and existing data

  2. A data model with status fields and audit-ready indicators

  3. Automated workflow for receipt, assignment, review, and approval

  4. Notifications for deadlines, review periods, and overdue items

  5. Leadership dashboards with real-time status and trend metrics

  6. A 30-day rollout plan for iterative capability delivery

  7. Availability and contracting

CORAS operates at IL5 and FedRAMP High in government environments, including NIPR and SIPR. Agencies can acquire CORAS and GARY through GSA, NASA SEWP, SBIR Phase III, Tradewinds AI Marketplace, Carahsoft, and AWS partner channels. Learn more at www.coras.ai

¹ Method: Productivity gain equals prior estimated hours divided by elapsed time using GARY. 120-160 hours divided by 0.5 hours equals 240x to 320x. Avoided labor equals prior estimated hours multiplied by the program's fully burdened rate. The $45,000 figure assumes 160 hours at about $281 per hour.
