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.

The Zeta Economic Index uses proprietary data and Generative AI to synthesize trillions of behavioral signals to produce a real-time snapshot of the state of the US economy

June 2024 shows steady progress in the US economy but a shift in consumer mindset towards caution to spend

Zeta Global (NYSE: ZETA), the AI-Powered Marketing Cloud, launched today the Zeta Economic Index (ZEI), a next-generation indicator of the state of the US economy. Utilizing Zeta’s proprietary data and cutting-edge Generative AI technology, the ZEI analyzes consumer behavior, assesses the state of the US economy and forecasts economic trends.

Since 2018, Zeta’s innovative Data Cloud has provided AI-driven intelligence to the world's leading enterprises, enabling them to understand drivers of consumer behavior and opportunities for growth and retention in a turbulent market. Building on this foundation of predictive analytics that shape decision-making, the ZEI provides a real-time snapshot of the macroeconomic landscape, enhancing the understanding of the key drivers of economic growth – consumer activity in the most sensitive vertical markets.

The ZEI utilizes technology, assets and tools that are unique to Zeta and valuable for their predictive power:

  • An identity graph of more than 240 million adults in the US.
  • An intelligence graph encompassing trillions of behavioral signals across digital, transactional and environmental elements.
  • Generative AI agents to synthesize real-time intelligence into index scores across eight verticals, including automotive, dining, entertainment, financial services, healthcare, retail, technology and travel.
  • Generative AI agents to create custom analyses of the ZEI.

“Consumers are key drivers of the US economy, and Zeta’s extensive proprietary consumer signals resulting from their engagements online and offline can provide a unique view into the health of the US economy,” said David A. Steinberg, Co-Founder, Chairman and CEO of Zeta Global. “We’ve been using the power of our Data Cloud with great success and now we’re excited to bring to market a differentiated economic index that is based on actual consumer behavior, not just sentiment, and uses cutting-edge Generative AI to deliver a real-time pulse on the US consumer and economy.”

The ZEI is comprised of two core indices and supported by sub-sections, articulating key consumer trends that serve as inputs into calculating US economic health and stability:

1. Economic Index Score

Definition: A combined, weighted score of key parameters that reflect the current health of the US economy as measured by consumers’ online and offline activities, powered by Zeta’s AI technology.

Relevance: The score represents the overall health of the US economy. A higher score indicates a positive uptick in economic activity in the US and a positive outlook.

2. Economic Stability Index

Definition: Predicted, blended quarterly stability score for the US population that indicates its ability to withstand economic downturns.

Relevance: The score represents the ability of people in the US to withstand fluctuations in the economy. A high and increasing score indicates a large and growing segment of people are well positioned to withstand negative fluctuations in the US economy.

June 2024 Zeta Economic Index Results

In June, the US economy has demonstrated resilience and stability, despite ongoing global and domestic volatility. The economy’s resilience through disruptive forces, including higher inflation, commercial real estate woes and financial sector stress, as well as external geopolitical factors, is reflected in stable ZEI scores. June ZEI highlights include:

  • The Economic Index Score increased month-over-month by 0.5% to 66.0 and is defined as Active.
  • The Economic Stability Index increased by 0.3% to 66.1 over the previous quarter and is defined as Stable.

The Zeta Economic Index is based on Zeta's analysis of consumer behavior and is provided as a free service.  It should not be considered investment advice or be relied upon to make investment decisions.
