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.

Booz Allen Ventures Invests in ConductorAI to Accelerate Government Efficiency

Driving faster innovation and smarter outcomes through advanced AI solutions

Booz Allen Hamilton (NYSE: BAH) today announced that its corporate venture capital arm, Booz Allen Ventures, has made a strategic investment ConductorAI, a leading AI-driven platform that empowers U.S. federal government agencies to modernize operations and deliver faster, more efficient services and outcomes.

ConductorAI empowers government users—from civilian agencies to the Department of Defense (DOD)—to rapidly compose, deploy, and manage AI-augmented workflows that turn manual, time-intensive procedures into human-in-the-loop processes. As missions become more complex and data volumes grow exponentially, ConductorAI leverages large language models (LLM) and agentic AI to automate time-consuming tasks—from foreign disclosure reviews and compliance tasks to citizen services and operational planning—driving greater speed, efficiency, and accelerating decision making at scale.

“The U.S. government is under growing pressure to modernize quickly while still relying on legacy systems,” said Shands Pickett, senior vice president of defense technology and strategy at Booz Allen. “ConductorAI helps to bridge that gap, empowering teams to harness AI now without waiting on full system upgrades or migrations, and accelerating innovation across government, including mission-critical environments within DOD.”

The platform is designed to support a wide variety of complex, document-based policy approvals, empowering workers and warfighters alike to deploy automation that enhances, rather than replaces, human judgment. ConductorAI is already gaining traction with multiple pilot engagements across key federal agencies.

“We built ConductorAI to solve the hardest problem in government: how to navigate bureaucracy quickly and reliably, to get licenses, permits, and approvals required for successful mission outcomes,” said Zachary Long, CEO of ConductorAI. “This partnership with Booz Allen accelerates our ability to deliver AI-driven solutions that cut through the red tape, streamline complex workflows, and support the people driving critical government missions.”

This latest investment reinforces Booz Allen’s commitment to helping the government modernize quickly, efficiently, and securely with cost-effective, AI-powered solutions that work within existing systems and deliver immediate results. Built for secure, high-stakes government environments, the platform enables agencies to move faster, make better decisions, and do more with fewer resources.

“Our investment in ConductorAI reflects Booz Allen’s continued commitment to accelerating government innovation through AI-powered, software-defined, and commercial-first solutions that drive greater agility and impact,” added James Gadea, Booz Allen Ventures. “Conductor AI’s mission-first culture and product maturity specifically position them to support the U.S. government’s modernization efforts.”

Since its launch, Booz Allen’s $100 million corporate venture capital arm has made strategic investments in early-stage companies developing dual-use commercial technologies. ConductorAI marks the 15th Ventures investment, with a diversified portfolio that includes Albedo, Credo AI, HiddenLayer, Hidden Level, Latent AI, Quindar, RAIC Labs (formerly Synthetaic), Reality Defender, Reveal Technology, Scout AI, Second Front (2F), SEEQC, Shift5, and Starfish Space.
