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.

Palantir and SOMPO Expand Partnership in Multi-Year Agreement

Palantir Technologies Inc. (NASDAQ: PLTR), a leading provider of enterprise operating systems, today announced a multi-year expansion of their partnership with SOMPO Holdings, Inc. via its Japanese joint venture Palantir Technologies Japan KK. SOMPO utilizes Palantir’s Foundry across several of their subsidiaries with thousands of daily users.

Since 2020, SOMPO has been using Foundry across care facilities in Japan to support the care of senior citizens, report care to the government, and raise the urgent needs of patients. More recently, SOMPO Japan is using Foundry as it revamps its claims process end to end. Foundry is deeply embedded at every stage across key decisions - from fraud detection and claim triage to ongoing monitoring. SOMPO is leveraging Foundry to transform its claims payment process, advancing initiatives such as optimizing claim allocation. For underwriters, AI agents are automatically evaluating risk and making recommendations during the underwriting process leading to an expected annual improvement in financial results of $10 million.

“Our partnership with Palantir has brought the best in class artificial intelligence software to our subsidiaries across Japan,” said Mikio Okumura, Group Chief Executive Officer, SOMPO Holdings. “Palantir Foundry continues to grow in importance across all sectors of our business. This software continues to increase our efficiency and profitability and will play a major role in the future of our business.”

“Over 8,000 people at SOMPO actively use Palantir in Japan while AI agents are used to automatically evaluate risk and make recommendations resulting in enhanced and automated underwriting decisions,” said Kevin Kawasaki, Global Head of Business Development at Palantir Technologies. “We are honored to be working with SOMPO and look forward to our long-term partnership.”

This is the second expansion of the agreement between Palantir and SOMPO, following a $50 million expansion in 2023.
