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.

Vecima Entra® vCMTS Selected by Cox Communications to Advance its Next-Generation DOCSIS® Network

  • Entra vCMTS offers a streamlined path from legacy platforms to a highly automated, reliable, interoperable, virtual DOCSIS® platform
  • This selection positions Vecima in the rapidly growing vCMTS market, estimated by Dell’Oro Group to grow to more than US $400 million annually by 2028

Vecima Networks Inc.’s (VCM: TSX) Entra® Virtualized Cable Modem Termination System (vCMTS) has been selected by Cox Communications, the largest private broadband provider in the U.S., to modernize and enhance its DOCSIS network.

Introduced in March 2024, the Entra vCMTS features an open, cloud-native design that is fully containerized and dynamically scalable. Built on field-proven Vecima DOCSIS® technology, it supports Vecima’s widely deployed Remote PHY Devices (RPDs) and is fully interoperable with other vendors. Entra vCMTS provides the scalability and throughput required for DOCSIS 3.1+ technology, Unified DOCSIS, and DOCSIS 4.0.

“We built the Entra vCMTS from the ground up to be the most reliable, interoperable, and efficient platform on the market,” said Clay McCreery, Chief Operating Officer Vecima. “This partnership with Cox marks a significant milestone for Vecima, as we build out our industry-leading Distributed Access Architecture (DAA) portfolio. Operators around the world, regardless of size, will benefit from the development and advancements we’ve made.”

Entra vCMTS uses Vecima’s simplified host operating system and container orchestration methodology for maximum security and efficiency. By combining both Application Programming Interface (API) and Command Line Interface (CLI) approaches in one, the Entra vCMTS is a workforce multiplier for operators, offering a streamlined transition from legacy platforms to a modern, highly automated, and high-reliability virtual DOCSIS platform.
