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.

MetLife and Nayya Expand Access to Upwise via Workday Marketplace

Today MetLife announced that through a strategic collaboration with Nayya, it is expanding access of Upwise, MetLife’s benefits experience platform, by making it available to employers through Workday Marketplace. This is another critical step in MetLife’s strategy to extend market leadership and its commitment to address the benefits ‘confusion gap’1 prevalent in today’s workforce. Since launching Upwise in 2024, the response has been outstanding, with a majority (64%) of employees stating the platform made their benefits decisions easier.2

Through this strategic collaboration, the benefits experience platform will be available by October 1, 2025, at no additional cost, to Workday Human Capital (HCM) and Workday Benefits customers via Workday Marketplace for employers which have in-force MetLife Accident, Hospital Indemnity, or Critical Illness insurance products or add one of these products to their benefits offering.

“We’re elated that Workday is enabling the scaling of our leading solution to help employers maximize their benefits offerings,” says Bradd Chignoli, executive vice president, Regional Business & Workforce Engagement at MetLife. “The addition of Upwise on Workday Marketplace enables us to tap into this robust ecosystem, efficiently expanding access to the solution and providing seamless integration for our mutual customers.”

“Workday and MetLife are two industry titans and bringing them together marks a powerful shift in how smart organizations approach employee benefits. Nayya is proud to be the connective tissue, helping unify systems, data, and people to deliver a more personalized and effective benefits experience,” said George Michaels, Chief Revenue Officer at Nayya.

This announcement comes on the heels of MetLife’s previously announced strategic relationship with Workday, MetLife as Workday Wellness partner, and speaks to the collective goal to deliver best-in-class benefits experiences and maximize employers’ benefits investment.
