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.

Catchpoint Launches Free Live Internet Outage Map to Deliver Real-Time Global Internet Health Insights for All

By: via Business Wire

Catchpoint, the leader in Internet Performance Monitoring (IPM), today announced the launch of a powerful, free live Global Internet Outage Map. The AI-powered dashboard provides a real-time snapshot of the health of hundreds of global internet services that power our everyday lives.

The free, interactive tool provides anyone with quick visibility into outages that may be impacting businesses, sites, or other internet services. The Live Internet Outage Map is available to everyone – no registration required – and provides real-time, global data from the past 24 hours, sampling hundreds of services monitored by Catchpoint’s powerful Internet Sonar capability, which provides deeper insights for paying customers.

The global health map provides valuable insights into the health of many Internet services and platforms, including social media (Instagram, LinkedIn, Facebook, etc.), eCommerce (Amazon, Apple, Walmart, etc.), finance (Visa, PayPal, Bank of America, etc.), entertainment (Netflix, Disney Plus, Spotify, etc.), travel (airlines, hotels, booking sites, etc.), and more. This access empowers users with critical, up-to-the-minute information on Internet performance and stability around the world.

The Live Internet Outage Map empowers users to proactively respond to outages that could disrupt business operations. Unlike other trackers that rely on delayed, crowd-sourced reports, Catchpoint's map utilizes data from millions of real-time tests conducted on the world's largest independent active observability network. This results in an AI-powered real-time, interactive status report, accessible here.

Key Benefits of the Live Internet Outage Map:

  • Real Data, Not Crowd-Sourced: The map relies on comprehensive, real-time data from advanced tests, instead of subjective user reports, ensuring accuracy and reliability free from human error.
  • Live Updates with No Delay: Users receive immediate outage information without waiting for third-party providers to post (often) delayed reports, providing timely insights when they are needed most.
  • Accuracy from Millions of Tests and Billions of Data Points: Our data is derived from numerous tests run on Catchpoint’s industry-leading Global Observability Network and curated by our advanced AI correlation engine, a powerful combination unmatched by any other service.
  • Reduction of False Positives: Internet Sonar’s AI analytics engine carefully examines outage data to validate results, avoiding inaccuracies that can mislead decision-making.

Global Internet Leaders - including the top CDNs, ISPs, cloud hyperscalers, and online retailers – rely on Catchpoint Internet Performance Monitoring to run their business and to ensure the performance and resilience of their services. The Internet Outage Map relies on the same technology to provide accurate, real-time data to everyone.

“With the release of our Live Internet Outages Map, Catchpoint is delighted to be able to offer to the community for free, real-time, global insights into the health of some of the world’s biggest Internet platforms, from Facebook to Amazon,” said Mehdi Daoudi, CEO of Catchpoint. “By providing a subset of the features from Internet Sonar, we hope to provide businesses the insights they need to answer the question, ‘Is it me or something else?’ Visibility into the health of Internet Infrastructure, SaaS, and MarTech is key to staying competitive.”

The full version of Internet Sonar monitors thousands of additional Internet services in additional categories, including Internet Infrastructure (AWS, Azure, Google Cloud, etc.), SaaS (AlaaS, UCaaS, SECaS, etc.), Marketing Technology (analytics, ad serving, video, etc.), API and Developer Tools and more. The full platform also allows for customizable timeframes, generates detailed notifications, and integrates seamlessly with various systems via webhook or API. These alerts significantly reduce Mean Time to Identification (MTTI) and Mean Time to Resolution (MTTR), streamlining incident diagnosis and resolution.
