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.

Enterprises See Technology, Workplace Services Critical for Success, ISG Study Says

ISG Digital Business Summit in Orlando will feature Marsh, Citigroup, Walgreens and more on technologies and solutions for future-ready businesses

Technology is critical to the workplace and customer experience, enterprise leaders say, but only 15 percent of the respondents to the 2023 ISG Buyer Behavior Research – Future Workplace Study from leading global technology research and advisory firm Information Services Group (ISG) (Nasdaq: III) say they are extremely confident their current approach will be adequate for the near future. They are looking to workplace services solutions to bridge the gap.

The interdependent solutions and business technologies that drive customer and employee experience, digital marketing and ESG initiatives will be the focus of the ISG Digital Business Summit, November 1–3, at the Margaritaville Resort in Orlando, Florida. The event will feature speakers from Marsh, Citigroup, Walgreens, Northwestern Mutual, Orange Business, RS Eden, United Bank, Polysleep and more.

“Enterprises need to enable secure, seamless delivery and customer experience to succeed,” said Iain Fisher, global Future of Work lead for ISG and co-host of the ISG Digital Business Summit. “The future of digital business is in implementing technology-driven business models that cut time to market, enhance the employee experience, produce meaningful data insights and improve sustainability in a cohesive and value-added way.”

Priya Nathan, a vice president at leading insurance broker and risk advisor Marsh, will join ISG's Prashant Kelker at the event for an industry spotlight interview on the business implications of AI and strategies for managing risks. A second industry spotlight interview will feature Pritesh Gandhi, former head of digital at Air Canada, on the transformative impact AI, machine learning and generative AI (genAI) will have on customer experiences.

A panel discussion, “Your Data Journey & The Customer Journey,” will ask Michael Gillman, senior director, business systems at audio electronics manufacturer Harman; Sachin Kothari, former vice president and chief privacy officer of Johnson Controls, and Karan Thaker, lead design strategist for CX at Northwestern Mutual, how enterprises should incorporate data, analytics and AI into customer loyalty and acquisition strategies. Dr. Lorenzo C. Hines, Sr., global SVP of Information Technology at Citigroup, will participate in the industry spotlight discussion on “The Business Quest for Growth Through Talent,” on employee value propositions that create growth.

“Enterprises know they need practical information and a plan for cutting-edge technologies,” said Anay Nawathe, ISG cloud delivery lead and co-host of the ISG Digital Business Summit. “When implemented strategically, technologies like enterprise-grade AI, genAI, conversational bots and metaverse will revolutionize business functions by automating and enhancing decision-making processes, analyzing massive volumes of data, generating insights and proposing strategic directions or solutions.”

Another panel discussion, ”Generative AI - Can you See the Future From Here?,” will include Raja Chaudhuri, board chair, RS Eden; Stephen Ma, chief architect, Walgreens; Rajesh Rajappan, senior vice president of transformation, Hitachi Vantara, and Yael Swerdlow, CEO and founder of Maestro Games, SPC, sharing the AI and ML technologies they are exploring and how they expect them to enable business objectives.

In the “Latest Trends in Digital Business-Driven Cost Optimization” panel, Ron Burley, branch operations manager, United Bank; Jeremiah Curvers, CFO, Polysleep; Ed Hansen, partner, Nelson Mullins, and Mal Vivek, president of digital transformation strategy firm Zeb, will advise audience members on how to use cost optimization and digital transformation to reengineer their technology and business operations for sustainable savings without compromising customer experience, quality or security.

The ISG Startup Challenge will feature Subbu Rama, CEO of AI-powered identity security and lifecycle experience platform BalkanID, and Alex Hamberger, director of strategic accounts at live, remote video support and inspection platform Blitzz, pitching their innovative solutions to a panel of judges before the audience votes on which technology they would implement in their own organizations.

The ISG Digital Business Summit is sponsored by Orange Business, Unisys, Harman, Hitachi Vantara, Kyndryl, Zeb, DigitalEx, IBM, Rackspace Technology, Simform and Xebia. CIOInsights, CIOReview, CIO Tech World, Artificial Intelligence and Applications and the Technology Business Management (TBM) Council are media partners.
