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.

Pegasystems Inc. (NASDAQ: PEGA), the leading enterprise AI decisioning and workflow automation platform provider, today announced Forrester Research has named Pega a Leader in The Forrester WaveTM: Real-Time Interaction Management (RTIM) report, Q1 2024 (1). Pega earned the top scores in the main scoring categories of ‘current offering’ and ‘strategy,’ as well as the highest possible score in ‘market presence.’

In the report, under the headline “Pegasystems dominates enterprise RTIM with its focus on customer-first business value,” the report says: “Pega’s reference customers universally praised its Customer Decision Hub as the centralized “brain” responsible for orchestrating billions of real-time interactions across an impressive 13 channels (on average).” It later says: “Pega sets the gold standard for enterprise RTIM implementations, predominantly for financial services, insurance, and telecommunications firms.”

Pega was among the 13 most significant RTIM providers evaluated for the report. In addition to receiving top scores in the ‘current offering’ and ‘strategy’ categories, Pega received the highest possible score in 25 of the 30 sub-criteria, including predictive AI, generative AI, real-time decisioning, inbound digital orchestration, outbound digital orchestration, customer data integration, vision, innovation, roadmap, pricing flexibility and transparency, community, customers, and more.
