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.

With the launch of ShopeePay in Malaysia, Singapore, and Thailand, FPX in Malaysia, K PLUS and AIS in Thailand, Indosat in Indonesia, and MerPay in Japan through Xsolla Pay Station, developers and publishers can now offer more trusted regional payment methods to players across Asia, boosting conversions and driving long-term engagement.

The gaming market in Asia continues to grow at an extraordinary pace. The mobile gaming content market in the Asia-Pacific region is projected to surpass $70 billion by 2025, with mobile gaming expected to account more than 60% of all gaming revenue in the region - underscoring the explosive growth and dominant role of mobile in Asia’s gaming landscape. Success in this mobile-first, highly localized market requires deep cultural alignment, especially at checkout. Players expect frictionless access to games and prefer to pay using popular digital wallets, bank transfers, or carrier billing rather than global credit cards.

Key benefits of the Payments in Asia expansion include:

  • Trusted Local Payment Methods with Proven Reach: Xsolla Pay Station now supports ShopeePay (dominant in Malaysia and Singapore e-commerce), FPX (used by 90% of Malaysian consumers), K PLUS (Thailand’s top mobile banking app with 22.8M users), AIS (Thailand’s #2 mobile carrier with 44M users), Indosat (Indonesia’s key carrier billing provider) and MerPay (One of Japan’s e-wallet that serves 16.8M users). These integrations reflect regional dominance and user trust across the Asian markets.
  • Localized Checkout in Native Languages: Checkout flows are fully localized, providing players with regionally tailored language support for a more intuitive, frictionless payment experience.
  • Mobile-First, Wallet-Optimized Flows: Payment journeys are designed for mobile behavior, supporting QR codes, banking apps, and carrier billing without redirects or unnecessary friction.
  • Access to 1.5 B+ Gamers in High-Growth Markets: Southeast Asia is projected to reach over 332 million gamers by 2028, with mobile accounting for 60% of game revenue. This makes payment localization critical for reach and monetization.
  • Increased Conversion and Reduced Abandonment: Familiar payment options and native-language checkout reduce cart drop-off and improve transaction success, especially among underbanked users who rely on wallets and telecom billing.

“Asia continues to lead the global gaming economy, especially in mobile,” said Chris Hewish, President at Xsolla. “To succeed in this region, developers must meet players where they are on their devices, in their language, and through their preferred payment methods. This is further supported by the fact that digital wallets are the most popular payment method among gamers in the Asian region, with over 75% using them to pay for games. With this expansion, we’re helping developers turn interest into transactions and build meaningful, localized experiences across Asia.”

These additions build on Xsolla’s vast coverage and existing infrastructure, strengthening its position as the go-to partner for developers expanding into Asia. With Pay Station’s new localized methods, developers can deliver smoother, faster, and more trusted checkout experiences that align with player behavior across key tiger markets.

Developers and publishers interested in expanding their reach and improving conversions in Asia can enable these payment methods directly through Xsolla Pay Station.
