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.

As a leading AI voice platform, WellSaid’s Text-to-Speech (TTS) technology leverages proprietary AI models, which are trained on exclusive and licensed voice data to generate natural sounding voice overs. WellSaid is the first generative AI company to develop an approach that allows the end user to give precise instruction to the generative model, as well as direct access to a working model, enabling greater customization during the voiceover process and the ability to store all favored settings for a quicker, more dynamic experience. The company’s responsible AI platform is trusted by 50 percent of leading Fortune 500 brands, including LinkedIn, T-Mobile, ServiceNow, and Accenture, to optimize audio content creation for corporate training, product and customer education, marketing, advertising, publishing, business telephony, and more.

WellSaid’s Latest Features Include:

  • Brand New Authentic, Human Voices: WellSaid has added 15 new voice styles to its extensive library of over 120 voices. Users have the ability to explore high-quality AI voices, customize their own, filter and search to identify preferred characteristics, and save favorite voices for future reference. All WellSaid voices are built using human vocal data from professionally trained voice actors that are paid royalties based on the use of their voice data on the WellSaid platform. As part of the voice actor agreement, WellSaid obtains permission to use the data its models are trained on, every time.
  • Cues: New verbal cues now enable users to further customize their voiceover, with the ability to adjust loudness, pace, and pitch. Instead of using outdated Speech Synthesis Markup Language (SSML) tags that drastically degrade the quality of the voiceover, WellSaid enables users to give directions directly to the model for a more contextually accurate, emotive response every time.
  • Respelling: In collaboration with Oxford Languages, the world’s most trusted dictionary publication and renowned leader in linguistic expertise, WellSaid has introduced phonetic respelling. This feature makes the WellSaid Studio even more intuitive and easy to use. The integration allows users to find and input the Oxford dictionary phonetic spelling (SPEH-lihng) of a word for improved pronunciation and a more precise outcome. Paired with the corresponding Replacements feature, the model will then automatically replace select words with phonetic respellings in every script with every voice.
  • Upgraded Team Functionality: Upgraded team functionalities now enable enhanced collaboration across shared projects, allowing users to divide projects amongst members, and work on projects together in real time.
  • Team Libraries: Team members can access shared Team Libraries, including a Pronunciation Library where users can access preferred pronunciations.
  • Team Voices: With Team Voices, users can add preferred and previously used voices in one place to ensure easy accessibility for future projects.
  • Single Sign-On: Single Sign-On access is available to Enterprise Team subscribers.
  • Robust Security Protection:
  • SOC2 Certified: Users can be assured their business-critical voiceover content is protected by industry standardized and audit verified controls.
  • GDPR Compliant: WellSaid and its practices fall within the scope of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), meeting the requirements for properly handling personal data as defined in the law. WellSaid prioritizes meeting set obligations, which limits how personal data can be used.

“Everything we build at WellSaid is intended to intuitively and effectively streamline the content workflow for creative professionals worldwide, and these new features are no exception,” said Brian Cook, CEO of WellSaid. “Looking ahead, we'll continue to innovate and improve upon our model at large, with additional features, voices, and integrations to further deliver high-quality AI voiceover technology indistinguishable from real human voices.”
