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.

Gigamon Leads Expanding Deep Observability Market with 52 Percent Market Share in 2025, According to New Frost & Sullivan Research

Research highlights limitations of traditional security tools, stringent Zero Trust requirements, and expanding attack surface from AI workloads as drivers for deep observability adoption

Gigamon, a leader in deep observability, has been recognized as a leading vendor in the high-growth deep observability market, according to new research by Frost & Sullivan commissioned by Gigamon. Overall, the deep observability total addressable market (TAM) is estimated at $880 million in 2025, growing to $2.7 billion in 2029, representing a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 33 percent as organizations increasingly embrace hybrid cloud infrastructure, according to the study.

Amid today’s evolving threat landscape, traditional log data from cloud, security, and observability tools is no longer sufficient in securing and managing complex hybrid cloud infrastructure. In the recently published Gigamon 2025 Hybrid Cloud Security Survey of more than 1,000 global Security and IT leaders, real-time threat monitoring and visibility across all data in motion was named as the top priority to optimize defense-in-depth strategies. As a result, nearly 9 in 10 (89 percent) Security and IT leaders agreed that deep observability is a foundational element of cloud security.

Deep Observability Delivers Complete Visibility, Cost Efficiencies for Hybrid Cloud Infrastructure

Frost & Sullivan defines deep observability as the ability to efficiently deliver network-derived telemetry to cloud, security, and observability tools. Emerging from the traditional observability market, the deep observability market has matured into a critical capability for organizations, according to the report. The ability to augment traditional log data with network-derived telemetry and insights enables Security and IT teams to gain complete visibility across hybrid cloud infrastructure, improving their overall security posture and optimizing network and application performance, according to the research.

“Over the past year we’ve seen organizations increasingly prioritize visibility into all data in motion, as they seek to secure their hybrid cloud environments against an accelerating threat landscape," stated Vinay Biradar, associate director, Cybersecurity Advisory at Frost & Sullivan. "The increasing complexity of dynamic and distributed workloads is driving a shift in security investments toward solutions that help deliver complete visibility and reduce risk. Our research once again highlights Gigamon as the industry leader, due to its Deep Observability Pipeline and vast ecosystem, as it delivers the rich network-derived telemetry that modern security tools need to effectively secure data and infrastructure from evolving cyberthreats.”

According to the research, the global deep observability market is significantly influenced by the increasing adoption rates among large enterprises (5,000+ employees) and US Federal Agencies, which have the highest adoption rate within the US Federal government due to regulations around Zero Trust implementation. Key findings on factors that drive deep observability adoption in the AI-era include:

  • Improving Security Posture
  • Zero-Trust Architecture Implementation
  • Operational Efficiency and Cost Reduction
  • Improving Compliance and Cloud Governance
  • Growing need for comprehensive network traffic insights

“AI is upping the ante for organizations, making complete visibility into all data in motion even more challenging across hybrid cloud infrastructure as organizations rapidly deploy new AI workloads," said Shane Buckley, president and CEO at Gigamon. "Increasingly, our customers are relying on the network-derived telemetry we deliver across their virtual machines, containers, cloud, and physical infrastructure, to help eliminate blind spots and vulnerabilities where threat actors could hide. The continued validation of deep observability as a rapidly growing market category underscores its significance in modern cybersecurity tech stacks.”

About the Frost & Sullivan Deep Observability Research

Frost & Sullivan conducted a top-down analysis of the Deep Observability Market by estimating the total number of large enterprises globally and US Federal Agencies’ adoption of deep observability solutions, and the average spending of an enterprise on the solution. The data for the findings was gathered by Frost & Sullivan research as well as through primary interviews with market participants including Gigamon.
