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.

Calix Introduces Business Insights Services So Service Providers Can Easily Leverage Their Business Data To Make Mission-Critical Business Decisions Faster

Calix announces Business Insights Services to help service providers of all sizes enhance Calix Cloud data with other critical business data to generate insights and action plans to inform critical business decisions and drive business transformations starting with Net Promoter Score analysis

This week at its annual customer success and innovation conference, Calix, Inc. (NYSE: CALX) announced Calix Business Insights Services (Business Insights Services). This new offering gives broadband service providers (BSPs) the capabilities of a team of business intelligence analysts to transform their data from the Calix Cloud® platform—and other first-party sources—into a comprehensive plan of actionable insights. Business Insights Services launches in 2023 and will be operated by the Stevie® award-winning Calix Customer Success Services (Customer Success) team. Calix business intelligence analysts and customer success specialists will partner directly with BSPs to leverage their business data to answer a specific question or solve a unique business challenge. The results are delivered in a detailed plan with compelling visuals and actionable recommendations. Business Insights Services will help BSPs reach their objectives faster by telling an accurate story behind the numbers. Calix announced this new offering to simplify data analytics as BSPs of all sizes are undergoing remarkable business transformations to beat intensifying competition and seize new market opportunities. For many BSPs, that means delivering differentiated managed services on top of their Wi-Fi offerings. Business Insights Services is designed to support BSPs with data-driven plans and strategic insights as they launch new revenue streams, build stronger subscriber relationships, and evolve their value propositions.

Business Insights Services will launch with an initial offering that deconstructs Net Promoter Score (NPS) results. Innovative BSPs like ALLO Communications that tailor their managed service offerings to the needs of their subscribers have NPS scores in the 70s in an industry where typical scores average below 30. This allows BSPs to measure how effectively they deliver an exceptional subscriber experience. The NPS offering in Business Insights Services will be the first in a growing engagement catalog to address specific topics unique to BSPs. Working with Customer Success, BSPs can create plans and programs for improved competitive advantage. Business Insights Services will help BSPs:

  • Gain invaluable insights on their networks to build actionable plans. Calix-partnered BSPs have access to their extensive business data from the comprehensive marketing insights engine Calix Marketing Cloud (Marketing Cloud). They also have access to unmatched visibility in Calix Support Cloud. To get the most out of these investments, BSPs can engage Business Insights Services to analyze their data to answer questions and address business concerns. As directed by a BSP, business intelligence analysts and customer success specialists will do the heavy lifting. The results are detailed recommendations to improve marketing, operations, subscriber experiences, and more.
  • Launch loyalty programs built on accurate insights to cultivate stronger subscriber relationships. To make NPS results truly meaningful, BSPs must go beyond the numbers to understand what the score and underlying data reflect. Calix business intelligence analysts and customer success specialists will collaborate with BSP leadership to apply statistical analysis to uncover the root cause of business challenges. This will inform improvement plans, delivered in platform- and software-agnostic recommendations.
  • Tailor marketing campaigns for managed services to turn subscribers into high-value NPS promoters. By engaging Business Insights Services to analyze their data from Marketing Cloud to uncover actionable insights, BSPs can more effectively reach high-value subscribers. As a result, BSPs can turn NPS results into increased subscriber engagement that moves the needle on revenue.

Also announced this week at Calix ConneXions 2022 are four new managed services added to the company’s growing ecosystem. Now with access to 11 managed services in total, Calix-partnered BSPs can easily reach new audiences and new markets. Colorado-based Jade Communications uses managed services from Calix to create exceptional subscriber experiences that differentiate them from the competition. Jade recently issued an NPS survey that included subscribers with the Arlo Secure managed connected camera service, customized and branded as Jade Security. The results were astonishing. One hundred percent of subscribers with Jade Security are likely to recommend the service to friends and family. With results in hand, Jade leadership turned to Business Insights Services to analyze their NPS, helping them clear the noise and make informed business decisions faster.

“Our NPS engagement with Business Insights Services translated our NPS results into insights that are helping us better understand the perceptions and experiences of our subscribers,” said Jordan Wehe, marketing director at Jade Communications. “Through impactful imagery that simplified and narrated advanced analytics, they identified key trends in our subscribers’ experiences that were not present in our other marketing tools. These takeaways are now helping us re-examine the way we do things. I look forward to continuing the engagement with Business Insights Services to guide us as we work to improve our processes and experiences to enhance our subscribers’ lives.”

Business Insights Services is built for any Calix Cloud customer. Those with Premier Customer Success have the added benefit of a customer success manager integrating these actionable insights into their success plans. ConneXions attendees can learn more about Business Insights Services in the Innovation Showcase and Expo at the Wynn in Las Vegas.

“The broadband industry is transforming rapidly, which means keeping subscribers satisfied, and staying ahead of the competition requires that you make better business decisions faster,” said Martha Galley, executive vice president of customer engagement and services at Calix. “Calix Cloud delivers more data and insights than many BSP leaders have ever had and makes it available at their fingertips. The goal of Business Insights Services is to help our customers get the most value out of their investments in our platforms, through delivering actionable programs and plans. We will help them demystify data and reveal insights behind the numbers through powerful and engaging visuals. As a result, BSP leaders will walk away with action plans that help them reach their objectives faster. We are thrilled to launch this critical new offering from our award-winning Customer Success team, the largest and most powerful in our industry, to further support the success of our BSP customers.”
