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.

Growing AI Adoption Fuels Digital Workplace Innovation

By: via Business Wire

Automation, distributed enterprises, changing expectations shape use of unified management platforms, ISG Provider Lens® report says

Enterprises worldwide are embracing AI and automation features in digital workplace platforms to enhance productivity, security and employee experience, according to a new research report published today by Information Services Group (ISG) (Nasdaq: III), a global AI-centered technology research and advisory firm.

The 2025 ISG Provider Lens® global Future of Work — Solutions report finds enterprises are accelerating adoption of AI-enabled workplace platforms to support hybrid work, improve collaboration and strengthen endpoint management. AI initiatives are beginning to move from experimentation to integration, with enterprises seeking measurable gains in productivity, resilience and compliance.

“Organizations are aligning digital workplace strategies with new employee expectations,” said Bill Huber, ISG partner, Digital Platforms and Solutions. “The rise of hybrid work and the proliferation of AI tools are reshaping the way organizations approach IT management.”

Enterprise IT leaders are prioritizing autonomous operations, real-time observability and employee-centric design, the report says. This approach reflects the need to support both productivity and resilience across distributed work environments. Endpoint security and device management are increasingly integrated into unified workplace platforms for greater control and improved outcomes.

The digital employee experience (DEX) market is expanding rapidly, fueled by enterprise demand for proactive IT management, sentiment analytics and sustainable infrastructure, ISG says. Organizations are turning to platforms that combine predictive analytics, real-time feedback and automated response capabilities to address user needs more effectively. These systems allow companies to monitor experience-level agreements, optimize IT support and provide consistent performance across hybrid environments.

In 2026, ISG expects a general shift in AI workplace initiatives from pilot projects to full-scale deployments, the report says. Companies will integrate AI more deeply into IT service management, unified endpoint management and collaboration platforms. Intelligent platforms now include self-healing systems, predictive diagnostics and virtual assistants. At the same time, enterprises face challenges from shadow AI, including security and compliance risks, as employees adopt unsanctioned tools. This is prompting companies to implement training programs and stricter frameworks for responsible AI use.

“AI-enabled workplace platforms are no longer optional. They are becoming foundational,” said Bruce Guptill, lead author of the report. “Enterprises that can embed automation and ensure responsible AI use will lead in the years ahead.”

The report also explores other global workplace technology trends, including the expected growth of outcome-based pricing models for automation tools and the influence of green IT initiatives on device lifecycle planning.

For more insights into workplace technology-related challenges faced by enterprises, plus ISG’s advice for overcoming them, see the ISG Provider Lens® Focal Points briefing here.

The 2025 ISG Provider Lens® Future of Work — Solutions report for Global evaluates 25 unique providers across two quadrants: Digital Employee Experience (DEX) Solutions and AI-enabled Digital Workplace Solutions.

The report names ControlUp, Lakeside Software, ManageEngine, Nexthink, Riverbed and TeamViewer-1E as Leaders in two quadrants each. It names Microsoft, ServiceNow and Tanium as Leaders in one quadrant each.

A customized version of the report are available from Lakeside Software.
