About Cabling Installation & Maintenance:

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.

Deluxe Launches Generative AI Enterprise Platform

New AI assistant, DAX, enhances partner support and customer service

Deluxe (NYSE: DLX), a trusted Payments and Data company, today introduced DAX, a new AI-powered assistant designed to help partners make faster decisions and achieve better outcomes. By turning complex data into clear, actionable insights, DAX empowers users to improve daily performance—creating value for both customers and shareholders. Now live within the Deluxe Merchant Services Daily Dashboard, DAX is built on the Deluxe.ai enterprise platform, which blends artificial intelligence with human expertise, all grounded in privacy, compliance, and responsible AI practices.

Powered by natural language processing and trained on pre-approved Deluxe content, DAX provides 24/7, human-like support for common product and portfolio questions. The result is a streamlined user experience and faster, more informed decision-making for partners.

“DAX is more than a chatbot, it’s a building block for how we scale AI to enhance service and simplify engagement,” said Yogaraj “Yogs” Jayaprakasam, SVP and Chief Technology and Digital Officer at Deluxe. “With Deluxe.ai, we’re investing in practical tools that deliver value to our customers while preserving the personal service Deluxe is known for.”

Key use cases enabled by DAX include:

  • Merchant Partner Chatbot: Embedded in the Daily Dashboard, DAX offers real-time, self-serve answers backed by curated Deluxe content, with seamless handoff to live agents when needed.
  • Customer Service Agent Assist: An internal tool that provides agents with real-time access to product information and documentation, enabling faster responses and improved customer outcomes.
  • AI-Powered Website Assistant: A digital assistant designed to help customers and interested parties navigate key Deluxe solutions—like Deluxe Payment Exchange+ (DPX+)—enabling faster self-service access to product and usage documentation through conversational, natural language interaction.

While tools like DAX improve speed and convenience, live support remains a critical part of the experience. AI assistants are meant to enhance—not replace—the trusted, human service Deluxe partners rely on.
