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.

Suralink Introduces the CPA Industry’s First Fully Integrated Request-to-Test Solution, Redefining the Future of Client Collaboration

By: via Business Wire

Suralink, the leading client collaboration platform for accountants, today unveiled the industry's first fully-integrated Request-to-Test solution with the launch of its new product Workpaper Suite and a collection of new AI automation and collaboration capabilities called Assessment Hub. These new products are the first in a wave of innovations Suralink will be releasing as the company focuses on addressing the Client Readiness Gap, the primary challenge impacting accounting firms and their clients today.

This press release features multimedia. View the full release here: https://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20250513372400/en/

Suralink Workpaper Suite: Data matching and linking within Microsoft Excel

Suralink Workpaper Suite: Data matching and linking within Microsoft Excel

Suralink’s Workpaper Suite is seamlessly connected with the company’s industry-leading Request List Management solution, and brings the power of Suralink’s cloud platform and collaboration capabilities directly into desktop Excel. Workpaper Suite provides a full range of automated testing and document matching capabilities, and goes beyond legacy add-in tools to boost productivity, enhance security, and strengthen client collaboration through every step of the engagement process:

  • Automated document syncing between requests and workpapers, enabling workpapers to always have the latest client-provided information.
  • Seamless collaboration with clients via pinned comments that can be created directly within Excel-based workpapers.
  • Cloud-based document storage so that Excel files don’t crash, aren’t downloaded onto desktops, and don’t need to be manually deleted within each workpaper at the end of an engagement.
  • AI-powered document analysis that enables faster document review and testing.

“For years, accounting firms have struggled with inefficiencies in the engagement process that have steadily eroded profitability and the client experience,” said Evan Fitzpatrick, CEO of Suralink. “With Workpaper Suite and our fully-integrated Request-to-Test solution, we’re closing these critical gaps while also setting a new standard for efficiency and collaboration—for firms and their clients. The launch of Workpaper Suite is just the first mile marker on a larger, innovative product roadmap we look forward to delivering.”

“These solutions are a game-changer,” said Steve Devich, CIO at Rea & Associates. “Having our PBC solution connected with our workpaper preparation will not only help us make engagements more efficient, but will also allow us to collaborate with our clients in a more secure, connected way.”

Early research shows firms have the potential to reduce the number of hours to complete an engagement by at least 25% and increase realization rates by 15 percentage points by using Suralink’s fully-integrated Request-to-Test solution.

Alongside the launch of Workpaper Suite, Suralink also announced the launch of Assessment Hub, a new collection of capabilities within its flagship Request List Management product, which includes:

  • Quick navigation file preview. Quickly preview and search files without downloading them. Users can instantly filter for newly uploaded documents, search and highlight matched text, and navigate across requests, all in a single, streamlined view.
  • Pinned comments for smarter collaboration. Add comments and tag firm or client users directly on documents, whether they’re PDFs, spreadsheets, or images.
  • AI-powered “ask anything” search. Quickly search documents using natural language queries to locate details like invoice numbers or contract terms. AI highlights the exact source, eliminating the need to read through every page.
  • Enhanced user interface. Firm and client users can now enjoy an even more intuitive design that further improves upon Suralink’s market-leading ease of use while preserving all the core functionality.

Workpaper Suite and Assessment Hub are currently in early access and will be available for firms to start using in the next few weeks. To learn more about Workpaper Suite, visit suralink.com/workpaper-suite. For more information about Suralink, visit suralink.com.
