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.

Video Platform for Remote Customer Support Wins ISG Startup Challenge

Blitzz remote video voted the top technology pitch at ISG Digital Business Summit in Orlando

A live video tool that allows businesses and their customers to look through a smartphone camera together for technical support won the ISG Startup Challenge at the ISG Digital Business Summit, hosted by Information Services Group (ISG) (Nasdaq: III), a leading global technology research and advisory firm.

ISG Startup Challenges feature entrepreneurs behind innovative solutions who deliver pitches on how their technology will add the most value to a business or community. Event judges question the presenters, and audience members vote for the technology they are more likely to implement within their own organizations.

ISG Startup Challenge audience members attending the ISG Digital Business Summit, November 1–3, at the Margaritaville Resort in Orlando, Florida, selected the remote customer service video solution Blitzz the challenge winner. Blitzz Director of Strategic Accounts Alex Hamberger pitched against Subbu Rama, CEO of AI-powered identity security and lifecycle experience platform BalkanID, and Padmanabhan VijaiSenthil, CEO of supply chain digital solution provider DARTexon.

“A recent ISG survey on the future workplace found fewer than 40 percent of respondents’ workforces work in the office, with 18 percent in mobile, customer-facing roles, and another 18 percent in customer roles that are not face-to-face,” said Anay Nawathe, ISG cloud delivery lead and co-host of the ISG Digital Business Summit. “In this environment, it’s easy to understand the appeal of a tool like Blitzz, which seamlessly enables remote technicians and support agents to see through an onsite smartphone camera to troubleshoot and assist colleagues or customers.”

Blitzz facilitates millions of minutes of video for technical troubleshooting, inspection, audits, insurance claims, maintenance, and more every month, across industries including telecommunications, automotive, construction, power and utilities and insurance.

Additional startup challenge contestant BalkanID offers the industry’s first intelligent identity security and lifecycle platform, leveraging data science to interrogate cloud, SaaS, and on-premises applications for inherent and residual permission, entitlement, account, and user-related risks.

The third contestant, DARTexon, leverages expertise in emerging supply chain technologies, AI and blockchain to develop integrated, multiyear enterprise supply chain roadmaps.

The ISG Digital Business Summit was sponsored by Orange Business, Unisys, Harman, Hitachi Vantara, Kyndryl, Zeb, DigitalEX, IBM, Rackspace Technology, Simform and Xebia. CIOInsights, CIOReview and Artificial Intelligence and Applications the Technology Business Management (TBM) Council were media partners.
