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.

Watson Farley & Williams and DISCO Expand Strategic Ediscovery Partnership

Global 200 firm selects legal technology company to provide advanced ediscovery tools, AI-enabled features and scalable professional services

DISCO (NYSE: LAW), a leader in AI-enabled legal technology, announced it has been selected by Watson Farley & Williams (WFW), a prominent Global 200 law firm, as the firm’s strategic partner for ediscovery technology and services to support its growing international disputes practice and client base.

WFW is a sector-focused law firm with 700+ lawyers in 19 offices worldwide. Committed to equipping its geographically dispersed case teams with intuitive, AI-enabled technology, the firm’s IT organization, led by Joby Tyler, set out to evaluate the ediscovery market to select a preferred global partner.

“WFW has prioritized the deployment of new technologies and AI-driven solutions for driving excellence and efficiency in legal service delivery, and our selection of DISCO is another example of how our firm is forward-thinking when it comes to embracing innovation and new approaches to client work,” said Joby Tyler, WFW IT Director.

“Having received positive feedback from our Bangkok disputes team regarding their use of DISCO on several recent matters, we embarked on an extensive evaluation of their technology, security, innovation approach and expertise,” Joby continued. “The WFW IT team ran live pilot projects through DISCO Ediscovery as part of our selection process. Whilst other products failed our hands-on stress test, DISCO ticked all boxes required for my team and I to support a global rollout to all WFW offices.”

“We’ve used various e-disclosure platforms in the past, but having recently worked with DISCO on a fast-moving, complex dispute, we knew right away that it gave us several advantages, including speed, ease of adoption and cost clarity,” said Steven Burkill, WFW Partner, Head of Bangkok office, Head of Asia Dispute Resolution. “Also, DISCO AI proved critical for us in meeting timelines and dealing with budget constraints in the multi-jurisdiction disclosure process.”

The dispute involved analyzing over three million documents under an extremely tight timeframe, leveraging WFW lawyers across multiple offices. By combining DISCO’s technology, professional services, and AI experts, WFW lawyers were able to meet their objectives while significantly reducing disclosure costs and delivering a highly accurate disclosure in less than two months.

“We’re thrilled to deepen our relationship with WFW globally, furthering the adoption of AI-driven solutions that allow lawyers to rethink traditional workflows and budgets in the pursuit of delivering favorable outcomes for their clients,” said Tripp Hemphill, DISCO’s Global VP of Enterprise Markets. “We look forward to supporting the firm’s case teams across North America, Europe, the Middle East and Asia through our geographically dispersed technical and services infrastructure. It’s rewarding for our team to work with clients who value innovation that advances the practice of law.”

In addition to immediate access to DISCO’s suite of purpose-built litigation applications, the partnership provides WFW with a front-row seat to pilot and adopt DISCO’s Cecilia Generative AI solutions, which currently include Q&A, document summarization, timeline generation, deposition summaries, and auto review.
