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.

SUPERWISE® Launches /collect: AI-Powered Field Intelligence, Built for the Front Lines

New tool delivers real-time, offline-ready data capture with full data ownership and zero vendor lock-in; designed for the realities of field work.

SUPERWISE®, the Enterprise AI Governance and Operations Platform, has launched /collect, an AI-powered data capture tool built for frontline teams. Designed for dynamic environments like construction sites, factories, and utility routes, /collect enables teams to capture, sync, and report data anywhere. It’s not just about easy data capture, it’s about control. With /collect, your data stays yours: no vendor lock-in, no black-box storage. Just smarter, AI-driven field data, fully owned and instantly usable. Now available as part of the SUPERWISE platform, /collect brings AI-powered, field-first data capture to frontline teams.

For many frontline teams, the gap between what happens on-site and what shows up in systems is still wide. Paper-based checklists, clunky forms, and poor connectivity often leave organizations blind to what’s really going on in the field. /collect was built to close that gap.

Data Ownership and Control from Point of Capture

/collect ensures that all field data remains the sole property of the organization collecting it. The solution supports local data caching, region-aware syncing, and enterprise-aligned governance policies; maintaining full control over where data is stored, when it is transmitted, and how it is used. This approach gives organizations ownership from the moment of capture, supporting both operational agility and jurisdictional requirements.

Field-First, AI-Fueled

With /collect, technicians, operators, and field workers can log voice notes, snap photos, and jot updates, even in offline environments. Inputs are cached locally, then synced to enterprise systems with structured reports auto-generated by built-in AI. What used to take hours now happens in seconds, without backlogs or bottlenecks.

“/collect isn’t just a form filler,” said Russ Blattner, CEO of SUPERWISE. “It’s a frontline intelligence layer. We built it to operate where the action is so companies can stop relying on incomplete reports and start seeing what’s really happening in real time.”

Built for Harsh Realities, Designed for Humans

Unlike traditional tools retrofitted for field work, /collect was engineered from the ground up for hands-busy, no-signal environments. With intuitive UX and seamless offline capabilities, it puts zero-friction data capture into the hands of the people closest to the work.

Key Features Include:

  • Data Ownership from Capture: /collect ensures all field data remains fully owned by your organization, with local caching, region-aware syncing, and enterprise-aligned governance for complete control over storage, transmission, and usage.
  • Voice, Photo & Text Capture: for flexible, on-the-go input
  • Offline Syncing: to eliminate data loss
  • AI-Powered Reporting: that transforms raw updates into structured insights
  • Manager Access: for fast reviews, audits, and escalations
  • Modular Integration: with enterprise systems via exports, flexible formats, and team-level access controls

From Documentation to Decision-Making

/collect is already being deployed by early adopters across construction, manufacturing, and utilities to improve site safety, reduce reporting lag, and accelerate maintenance response.

“When field data is clean, current, and contextual, AI can actually do its job,” added Blattner. “That’s why /collect matters. It doesn’t just improve documentation, it feeds better decisions across the board.”
