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.

Qlik Kicks Off 2025 AI Reality Tour to Turn Strategy Into Execution

Global series brings Qlik’s latest innovations—agentic AI, Open Lakehouse, and more—directly to enterprises across the Americas, EMEA, and APAC

Qlik®, a global leader in data integration, data quality, analytics, and artificial intelligence, today announced the launch of its 2025 AI Reality Tour, a global tour designed to help organizations transform AI strategy into measurable business outcomes.

With 87% of business leaders now viewing AI execution as mission-critical, the AI Reality Tour brings Qlik’s latest innovations directly to enterprises across the Americas, EMEA, and APAC. Yet only 42% of executives express full, audit-ready trust in AI-generated insights—highlighting a significant confidence gap. At the same time, 74% cite infrastructure costs, data silos, and slow ingestion as key barriers—underscoring the urgent need for scalable, integrated solutions that can turn AI ambition into real outcomes.

“AI isn’t a lab experiment anymore—it’s the baseline. What separates leaders now is execution,” said Mike Capone, CEO of Qlik. “That means embedding intelligence where decisions get made, and doing it with speed, trust, and scale. The AI Reality Tour shows what that looks like in practice—because strategy without action doesn’t move the needle.”

The 2025 AI Reality Tour will showcase how Qlik is uniquely enabling execution at scale through three key innovations:

  • One platform, built for action: Qlik unifies data integration, analytics, and AI across a single cloud-native platform—so execution happens faster, with fewer handoffs, and no patchwork solutions.
  • Open by design, efficient by default: Qlik Open Lakehouse delivers real-time ingestion, automated Iceberg optimization, and cross-engine access—cutting infrastructure costs by up to 50% while boosting performance by up to 5x.
  • AI that works where you work: From proactive discovery agents to embedded forecasting, writeback, and prep, Qlik’s embedded capabilities bring intelligence directly into your workflows—out of the box, and at scale.

“Qlik stood out because we didn’t need to rebuild our architecture or retrain our teams,” said Vivienne Parsons, Senior Management Information Analyst – 999 Operations, RSO & Special Projects Business Intelligence at South Central Ambulance Service NHS Foundation Trust. “We connected our systems, brought in the right data, and started seeing results quickly. It’s one of the few platforms that actually works across functions—from IT to the business—without creating more complexity.”

The AI Reality Tour is built for decision-makers looking to move faster from strategy to execution. Each event offers practical insight into what it takes to scale AI in complex environments—through live demonstrations, working sessions with Qlik experts, and candid conversations about real deployments. Content is shaped around regional priorities, with a focus on solving for the conditions that make AI valuable—not just possible.

The 2025 AI Reality Tour runs from June through October, with events in major cities across the Americas, EMEA, and APAC. For a complete schedule and to register, visit the AI Reality Tour website.
