About Cabling Installation & Maintenance:

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.

Window Nation Relies on Wrike’s Work Intelligence® to Power Project Management

Wrike’s AI features help creative department improve productivity and prioritize high-impact work

Wrike, the most intelligent work management platform, today announced that Window Nation, one of the leading suppliers of replacement windows and doors, has chosen Wrike to improve project organization, collaboration, and task management across its creative department. Introducing Wrike and its Work Intelligence solution, including AI-recommended tasks and generative AI, has allowed the organization to complete projects more quickly and accurately, resulting in a positive impact on Window Nation’s bottom line.

“Business leaders across all industries are actively working to improve efficiency, but 42% don’t have visibility into the work taking place across their teams,” says Alexey Korotich, CPO at Wrike. “Window Nation is a great example of how implementing a solid foundation for work management can eliminate a lot of the administrative challenges teams face, and pave the way to introduce more advanced time-saving solutions that unlock the transformative power of AI.”

Window Nation previously relied on ad hoc tools to manage tasks and projects. This made it difficult to anticipate how long team members needed to complete their work, organize project details, and monitor progress. Now, Window Nation’s creative department has been able to better track its work, capture details in a single place, and capitalize on the visibility Wrike provides into project progress. It has also tackled more general communication challenges with the help of contextual collaboration and digital proofing to foster a more collaborative environment.

“We now have a unified platform where all project-related information, tasks, deadlines, and communications are consolidated,” said De Lisa Patterson, Creative Director, Window Nation. “This centralized approach has vastly improved the team’s ability to stay organized, ensuring that everyone is on the same page and aware of their responsibilities.”

As soon as the team was able to visualize work in a single source of truth, Patterson turned to Wrike’s innovative Work Intelligence solution to further improve her team’s efficiency.

“Recognizing the potential of artificial intelligence to automate repetitive tasks, I took the initiative to explore Wrike’s AI capabilities and integrate them into our workflow,” Patterson says. “I use the smart suggestions feature to automatically organize projects based on selected criteria, such as status, priority, or deadline, and GenAI features to advance production of assets for campaigns we need to run at scale. The result was significant savings in time and effort for our team, as well as increased consistency and accuracy in project management across the board.”

Wrike’s AI features like smart suggestions, intelligent search, and generative AI allow teams to focus on more high-value work:

  • Smart suggestions: By detecting patterns in user actions, Wrike will proactively make helpful suggestions to users, such as automating repeatable items, starting an approval, and adding actionable subitems.
  • Intelligent search: Using natural language support, Wrike will quickly search and find items, assets, tools, help articles, templates, and more in a way that users are familiar with, similar to their favorite search engines.
  • Generative AI: Wrike will generate digest summaries across work items to surface the most important information for users to focus on; generate briefs, plans, and brainstormed ideas effortlessly; and construct on-message descriptions from scratch, tailoring them to match brand and personal voice.

The creative department is able to complete work quicker and more efficiently to achieve project milestones ahead of schedule.

Patterson says: “Wrike’s AI features have become indispensable in my daily workflow, enabling me to accomplish more in less time and with greater accuracy.”
