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.

Fastly Named a 2022 Gartner® Peer Insights™ Customers’ Choice for Global CDN

Highest-rated by enterprise customers who have purchased, implemented, and used a Content Delivery Network (CDN)

Fastly, Inc. (NYSE: FSLY), the world’s fastest global edge cloud network provider, today announced it has been peer-recognized as a Customers’ Choice in the 2022 Gartner Peer Insights “Voice of the Customer”: Global CDN. Scoring the highest overall rating among seven eligible vendors, Fastly received the highest customer rating of 4.8 out of 5 stars and highest customer willingness to recommend (97%), as of February 2022.

Fastly’s uniquely designed network with fewer more powerful points of presence (POPs) was built to reduce latency, improve reliance, and support increased customer demand at scale. With 192 terabits per second (Tbps) of connected edge capacity, made up of 95 POPs across 71 markets, Fastly empowers some of the world’s largest brands to deliver modern digital experience quickly and safely, through its modern delivery offering and world class DDoS and WAF support.1

Among the Fastly customer reviews that contributed to the company’s recognition:

  • “With an ever-increasing PoP count and network presence, Fastly is truly one of the fastest CDNs on the planet.” – Technical Account Manager, IT Services
  • “I’ve been extremely satisfied with the custom VCL options possible using Fastly’s CDN and the ease of use of their product. Their salespeople are very knowledgeable and technical support has always been extremely helpful and responsive with any issues or questions I’ve had. Their documentation for how to use their various products and services is exceptional.” – Business Solutions Analyst, Transportation Services
  • “We shifted to Fastly because we wanted a platform we could develop on. Other CDN providers do the bread and butter of content delivery about the same, but Fastly is a developer-focused platform with rich extensibility and customization. We’ve been able to shift business logic closer to the consumer and away from brittle, internally maintained proxies and caching layers. The performance is spot on and the visibility into traffic flow makes it easy to use operationally when we need to investigate an issue with an origin.” – Director, Software Engineering, Media & Publishing
  • “Our company has found Fastly to be rock-solid for not only content delivery, but also web security and support. Fastly has been such a huge value-add to our business. So much more than a CDN. Fastly has the best support of any company we have ever worked with.” – Sr. Full Stack Web Dev, Retailer
  • “We love Fastly so much. Can’t say enough good things about them. They’re always friendly and helpful, get us in touch with the right people when we need support, etc.” – CTO, Media & Publishing

“We believe this first-time Customers’ Choice recognition for CDN, paired with our recent fourth time recognition in the March 2022 Gartner Peer Insights ‘Voice of the Customer’: Web Application and API Protection report2, demonstrates Fastly’s dedication to customer experience across both markets,” said Joshua Bixby, CEO at Fastly. “Today’s announcement further demonstrates Fastly’s commitment to supporting the best-of-the-web through fast, safe, and reliable digital experiences. Thank you to our customers, whose continued feedback made this recognition possible.”
