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.

NetApp Is Recognized as a 2025 Gartner® Peer Insights™ Customers’ Choice for Primary Storage Platforms

Feedback and ratings collected by customer reviews found that 98% of verified end-users recommend NetApp

NetApp® (NASDAQ: NTAP), the intelligent data infrastructure company, today announced it was named a Customers’ Choice in the 2025 Gartner Peer Insights ‘Voice of the Customer’ for Primary Storage Platforms.

The 2025 Gartner Peer Insights ‘Voice of the Customer’ for Primary Storage Platforms aggregated reviews from 126 verified end users of NetApp, and 98 percent of them conclude that they would recommend NetApp as of December 31, 2024.

Gartner defines primary storage platform (PSP) market as it “addresses the needs of infrastructure and operations (I&O) leaders to operate and support standardized enterprise storage products, along with platform-native service capabilities to support structured data applications.”

“We believe being recognized as a 2025 Customers’ Choice for Primary Storage Platforms validates the efforts we have made to deliver intelligent data infrastructure to help our customers meet the demands of the AI era today and into the future,” said Cesar Cernuda, President at NetApp. “We feel we have set a pace of relentless innovation to ensure our portfolio supports an intelligent data infrastructure framework that gives our customers the power to manipulate their data in every environment. NetApp delivers the only portfolio on the market that's fully integrated by intelligence, giving customers agility and security from start to finish.”

NetApp Drives Relentless Innovation

In the last year, NetApp has refreshed its unified, block-optimized, and object enterprise storage portfolio. Whether customers are looking for solutions to traditional workloads like databases, trying to optimize their VMware environments, or implementing an enterprise AI, NetApp has the right system to deliver performance, scalability, and rich data services no matter the company size or budget.

NetApp delivers the most secure storage on the planet, helping customers enhance their cyber resiliency with built-in security features like the NetApp ONTAP® Autonomous Ransomware Protection with AI (ARP/AI) solution. With externally validated 99 percent accurate detection of ransomware threats, customers can use ARP/AI to respond and recover faster from attacks with the most accurate storage-level security possible. Further reducing operational risk for customers, NetApp offers a Ransomware Recovery Guarantee providing financial compensation in the unlikely event that NetApp cannot recover protected Snapshot data in the event of a ransomware attack.

“Earning the trust of our customers is one of our top priorities, and we believe the outcomes speak for themselves in the latest Gartner Peer Insights ‘Voice of the Customer’ report,” said Gabie Boko, CMO at NetApp. “We believe NetApp is advancing in providing silo-free infrastructure, built with intelligence to meet real-world needs. But don’t take it from us, with input from the 126 verified user reviews collected on Peer Insights, this recognition shows that our customers believe we deliver the security, flexibility, and scalability they need from their primary storage provider.”

No ransomware detection or prevention system can completely guarantee safety from a ransomware attack. Although it’s possible that an attack might go undetected, NetApp technology acts as an important additional layer of defense, and our research indicates NetApp technology has resulted in a high degree of detection for certain file encryption-based ransomware attacks.
