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.

Lively Launches AI-Powered Bundle to Eliminate Repetitive HR Tasks and Save Benefit Teams Time

New AI Benefits tools reduce administrative burden, streamline reimbursements, and empower employees to make informed decisions—especially during Open Enrollment

Lively, Inc., a top-rated health and lifestyle benefits platform* known for building the modern Health Savings Account (HSA), today announced the launch of its new AI-powered bundle designed to reduce administrative burden for HR and benefits teams, while helping employees confidently navigate their health and wellness benefits.

This press release features multimedia. View the full release here: https://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20250429950698/en/

This new offering enhances the Lively platform with a suite of AI tools that simplify the most time-consuming parts of benefits management—from implementation and onboarding to employee support and reimbursement processing. The launch comes at a critical time, as HR teams continue to navigate lean staffing models and rising demands during periods like Open Enrollment.

“Benefits leaders are under pressure to do more with less,” said Alex Cyriac, CEO and Co-Founder of Lively. “Our new AI bundle automates the repetitive, reduces the noise, and delivers real-time support to employees—without adding to HR workload.”

And since saving time shouldn't come with added cost, this bundle is available free of charge for Lively’s enterprise clients.

Built to Save Time at Every Step

The new AI bundle includes four capabilities aimed at transforming the benefits experience for both administrators and employees:

  • File Sync: Employers can now onboard quickly by simply sharing their existing contribution or enrollment file format—no reformatting required. Lively handles data mapping and conversion internally, free of charge. This allows faster implementations and a smoother experience across providers and removes formerly manually cumbersome requirements.
  • Lively AI Chatbot: A 24/7 support assistant that ingests individual-provided and company-specific plan data to deliver personalized, easy-to-understand answers to frequent employee questions. It aims to reduce escalations and offers HR teams always-on support without increasing headcount.
  • Decision Support with LivelyIQ: Walks employees through plan comparisons and enrollment options. With just a benefits summary document upload, LivelyIQ automatically extracts plan details and delivers customized benefits cost projections and savings insights.
  • Claim Sync, Smart Reimbursements: A better way to handle reimbursements across HSA, FSA, and HRA accounts. With connections to 95% of health plans and their claims, Claim Sync makes it easy for employees to get reimbursed without having to upload receipts. And with AI-driven decisioning, claims can be reviewed and approved in seconds.

Empowering HR and Employees Alike

By eliminating manual tasks and enabling proactive employee guidance, Lively’s AI bundle directly addresses one of the biggest pain points in benefits administration: time. HR and consultants can redirect their focus to strategy, while employees experience faster service, better guidance, and easier access to their funds.

The launch reflects Lively’s ongoing commitment to modernizing health and wellness benefits through smart, user-first innovation. As the #1 user-rated HSA, with the highest CSAT across the industry and an average HSA balance 35% higher than the industry average**, Lively continues to lead the market in both product innovation and consumer outcomes.
