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.

New Survey from Wolters Kluwer reveals internal auditors plan to double AI adoption by 2026

Wolters Kluwer, a global leader in professional information, software solutions, and services, has released compelling survey findings on the current levels of adoption, future plans and key drivers related to Artificial Intelligence (AI) in internal audit. The survey shows that 39% of internal auditors are already employing AI and a further 41% intend to adopt AI in the next 12 months.

Frans Klaassen, Senior Vice President and General Manager, Wolters Kluwer Audit & Assurance and Corporate Tax said: “The findings of our research show that AI is set to transform internal audit in the next 12 months, with adoption set to double to 80%. Over half of internal auditors identified productivity and efficiency gains as the key advantage of AI adoption in the coming year. To realize the transformative potential of AI, auditors will need access to advanced, secure technologies to optimize their operations. As a global leader in audit and assurance, Wolters Kluwer TeamMate is committed to continuous innovation to bring cutting edge and award-winning solutions to the market.”
