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.

Blue Stream Fiber Deploys Vecima and KeyFrame™ to Improve Video Streaming Quality

Vecima Networks Inc. (TSX: VCM) announced today that Blue Stream Fiber, Florida’s fastest-growing fiber-optic telecommunications provider, has deployed KeyFrame™ to enhance the video quality streaming experience for subscribers of its Blue Stream Fiber TV service.

The KeyFrame Media Optimization Solution enables Broadband Service Providers (BSPs) to elevate video quality using real-time generative AI while simultaneously reducing bitrates.

With KeyFrame, network operators can dramatically improve video quality while simultaneously reducing required bitrates. This patented technology not only continues to ensure true 1080p and 4K resolution but also features advanced capabilities such as denoising and artifact removal, spatial and temporal anti-aliasing, and artifact-free upscaling. In addition, it can significantly reduce bitrates, resulting in efficiencies in both storage and transmission.

“We were impressed by the immediate improvement in video quality for our viewers while also achieving significant bitrate efficiencies using KeyFrame,” said Craig Walker, Senior Director of Advanced Technology at Blue Stream Fiber. “At Blue Stream Fiber, we are committed to providing the highest quality streaming experience, especially for live sports, and KeyFrame helps us achieve this more efficiently and cost-effectively.”

Operating upstream of encode and distribution pipelines, KeyFrame optimizes overall system efficiency, ensuring exceptional video quality while dramatically reducing bitrates and maintaining low door-to-door latency throughout the delivery process.

“A superior video experience helps operators increase customer satisfaction and drive multi-product retention,” said Paul Strickland, Vice President and General Manager, Vecima Content Delivery & Storage. “With the addition of KeyFrame to our MediaScale™ end-to-end content delivery and monetization platform, Blue Stream Fiber will deliver a higher quality video experience while reducing bitrates – simultaneously delighting viewers and reducing costs.”
