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.

Aladdin Wealth™ Launches AI-Enabled Commentary Tool for Wealth Advisors; Morgan Stanley’s Portfolio Risk Platform First to Implement

Morgan Stanley Wealth Management will continue its GenAI leadership position by deploying the Aladdin Wealth platform’s new AI tool in the U.S. within their Portfolio Risk Platform

Aladdin Wealth™, wealth management technology from BlackRock, is introducing Gen AI-driven functionalities designed to help financial advisors deliver more personalized, insightful, and efficient client service. The new “Auto Commentary” feature turns complex portfolio analytics and client-level investment preferences into concise insights, helping financial advisors craft relevant narratives to deepen client relationships by delivering more meaningful, differentiated conversations.

Auto Commentary brings together three powerful inputs: the Aladdin Wealth platform’s robust data and risk analytics, an individual firm’s CIO market outlook, and detailed information about the client’s portfolio holdings and investment preferences. Leveraging the power of Gen AI, Auto Commentary assesses hundreds of data points and summarizes them in a way that highlights the most relevant insights. Armed with these insights, financial advisors can deliver personalized service at scale, differentiating their value and increasing their impact to drive growth across clients.

“The opportunity to transform wealth management through technology has never been greater,” said Ted Stratigos, Global Head of Aladdin Wealth Tech. “To meet this moment, we’re harnessing the power of AI to simplify complex workflows and enhance how financial advisors connect with clients, driving greater efficiency and deepening financial advisor-client engagement. At BlackRock, we’re committed to staying ahead of client needs by using AI as a catalyst for meaningful innovation.”

Morgan Stanley’s proprietary Portfolio Risk Platform, which leverages a combination of BlackRock’s Aladdin risk analytics and Morgan Stanley data, will be the first to implement this new AI-powered capability. Starting in October, financial advisors will begin accessing Auto Commentary to bring AI innovation to the forefront of their client experience, enabling them to spend more time on critical client conversations.

"Auto Commentary leverages AI to integrate hundreds of analytics and firm-level market insights into a cohesive narrative," said Chris Scott-Hansen, Managing Director and Head of Consulting Group at Morgan Stanley Wealth Management. "By automating labor-intensive research, we enable our financial advisors to concentrate on what truly matters—building trust through assisting clients in navigating complex market dynamics. Morgan Stanley is committed to implementing technology solutions that modernize the future of advice: less time spent gathering data, more time delivering actionable insights to every client."
