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.

Elisity Named a 2025 SINET16 Innovator Award Winner

Company selected from 193 global applicants for disruptive approach to Zero Trust network security

Elisity, the pioneer in identity-based microsegmentation, today announced that it has been named a winner of the SINET16 Innovator Award. The company was one of 16 emerging companies identified by SINET, selected from a pool of 193 applications from 19 countries.

Applications are evaluated in a series of two rounds by the SINET Judging Committee composed of 112 security professionals, including leading CISOs, risk executives, experts in government intelligence and defense agencies, venture capitalists, and investment bankers.

“Winning the coveted SINET16 Innovator Award is a tremendous honor,” said James Winebrenner, CEO of Elisity. “It is especially gratifying to be recognized for our disruptive approach to identity-based microsegmentation by such an esteemed panel of judges from the practitioner, security vendor, and venture capitalist communities. This recognition validates our mission to make Zero Trust network security accessible and achievable for enterprises without the complexity and disruption of traditional approaches.”

Preventing lateral movement attacks while maintaining operational continuity has become increasingly critical for organizations facing the growing threat of ransomware, data exfiltration, and operational disruption from compromised systems. Traditional network segmentation approaches often require extensive network redesigns, new hardware deployments, and a complex implementation that can take months or years, leaving organizations vulnerable.

“I don’t invest in buzzwords. I invest in outcomes. Elisity turns segmentation from a science project into a measurable control—deployment speed, containment, and uptime. No more hiding behind re-plumbing complexity and policy brittleness,” said Steve Ward, Senior Advisor at Insight Partners.

"Elisity's recognition as a SINET16 Innovator validates our investment thesis in their groundbreaking approach to network security. Enabling customers to achieve comprehensive microsegmentation in weeks rather than years represents the kind of transformative efficiency enterprises demand," said Morgan Gerlak, Partner at TCV.

Elisity was selected based on cumulative scoring associated with:

  • The urgency in the marketplace for its products and solutions
  • The strength and experience of the leadership team and board
  • The level of innovation the company is bringing to the market
  • The company's competitive positioning in the market landscape
  • Investment potential and growth trajectory

“SINET hosts the annual SINET16 Innovator Awards in service of our mission: to advance innovation to defeat global cybersecurity threats,” said Robert D. Rodriguez, Chairman of SINET. “Innovation begins with increased awareness of new and emerging technologies that will better society. Congratulations to this year’s class of SINET16 Innovators.”

Elisity has demonstrated significant market traction, with 83% of customers successfully implementing critical security policies across their entire infrastructure within 90 days. Elisity's innovative approach has earned additional recognition in 2024 and 2025, including being named a Cool Vendor™ in the Gartner® Cool Vendors™ in Cyber-Physical Systems Security 2025, recognized in the Gartner Hype Cycle™ for Enterprise Networking, 2025, and a Representative Vendor in the 2025 Market Guide for Network Security Microsegmentation. Elisity was also recognized in the Forrester Wave™ Microsegmentation Solutions Q3 2024 evaluation as a “Strong Performer,” with investments from Technology Crossover Ventures (TCV) and Chevron Technology Ventures (CTV), and customer Main Line Health receiving both the 2024 CSO Award and 2025 CIO 100 Award for cybersecurity excellence.
