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.

Tiktok Is Now Routing 100 Percent of Its U.s. User Traffic to the Oracle Public Cloud

The social video firm revealed on Friday, a move from past practice that relied on the company’s data centers in the U.S. and Singapore.

The change is meant to satisfy worries that the corporation would pass personal data about U.S. consumers to the authorities in China. “For more than a year, we’ve been working with Oracle on many initiatives as part of our business agreement to further secure our app, systems, and the security of U.S. user data,” TikTok wrote in a blog post.

“We’ve now accomplished a critical milestone in that work: we’ve shifted the default storage location of U.S. user data. Today, 100 percent of U.S. user traffic is being routed to Oracle Cloud Infrastructure.”

TikTok had already been doing some work with Oracle (NYSE: ORCL), but this solidifies a major win for the Oracle Cloud, which is trying to compete with the three large U.S. public cloud players: Amazon Web Services, Microsoft MSFT +1.09 percent Azure, and Alphabet GOOGL +1.05 percent’s Google Cloud.

TikTok said it currently utilizes its U.S. and Singapore data centers for backup, but aims to ultimately erase U.S. user data from its servers “and completely pivot” to Oracle cloud servers in the U.S.

During the Trump administration, TikTok and its China-based company ByteDance came under examination as possible security hazards. In September 2020, as part of an agreement to resolve a lawsuit between TikTok and the U.S. government, Oracle agreed to act as a “trusted technology partner” to the firm.

President Donald Trump had threatened to shut down TikTok’s U.S. activities unless they were bought by an American bidder. ByteDance at one time turned down an offer from Microsoft (MSFT) and Walmart (WMT) to purchase TikTok’s U.S. business. It looked at the time that Oracle may purchase the firm instead, but no acquisition deal was struck.

In its statement Friday, TikTok claimed it was making other modifications in its operations to meet U.S. security concerns. The business stated that a new department with U.S.-based leadership would “solely handle U.S. user data.” The business claimed it made measures to “provide greater protections, and further reduce data transmission outside of the U.S.”
