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.

Blaize Introduces AI Platform to Power Multi-Modal Intelligence at the Edge

In collaboration with Supermicro and a growing ecosystem of ISV partners, Blaize’s AI Platform empowers faster, smarter decisions while reducing latency, cost, and complexity across critical environments

Blaize Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ: BZAI, NASDAQ: BZAIW) (“Blaize”), a leader in programmable, energy-efficient edge AI computing, today unveiled the Blaize AI Platform, a purpose-built, edge-native solution engineered to efficiently and flexibly deliver multimodal intelligence for mission-critical workloads across a wide range of industries. With a focus on programmability and ease of deployment, the platform is designed to accelerate AI implementation without the complexity.

With deployments already underway across Asia, the Blaize AI Platform is redefining how organizations execute and scale AI across distributed environments. Purpose-built for complex, multimodal workloads – including video, audio, and sensor fusion – the platform delivers a powerful combination of performance, energy efficiency, and total cost of ownership, while integrating seamlessly with existing GPU-based infrastructure.

“As data becomes more complex and multi-modal, the need for scalable, hybrid AI infrastructure has never been greater,” said Dinakar Munagala, Co-founder and CEO of Blaize. “The Blaize AI Platform is already powering public safety, defense, and infrastructure projects – transforming fragmented data sources and systems into unified, responsive intelligence networks. Together with Supermicro, a global leader in energy-efficient, high-performance IT infrastructure for AI, cloud, and edge, and a growing ecosystem of ISVs and AI application providers, we’re enabling customers to deploy complete, ready-to-run AI solutions at the edge and beyond.”

The Blaize AI Platform was built to replace passive data collection with proactive intelligence at scale. Platform highlights include:

  • Multi-modal sensor fusion: Consolidates video, audio, telemetry, and more into unified insights.
  • Simultaneous model execution: Processes multiple models without batching or bottlenecks.
  • Comprehensive support of compact and scalable systems: Enables hybrid AI deployment across diverse environments and workloads, from rugged edge devices to workstations and rack mount servers.
  • Collaborative software stack: Pre-integrated with domain-specific AI pipelines.

ISV Ecosystem Expands Real-World Use

Blaize is launching its platform alongside a growing network of ISVs (Independent Software Vendors) whose AI software is optimized to run on Blaize’s energy-efficient silicon. These companies are enabling complete AI workflows across edge environments – making the platform faster to deploy, more intelligent in operation, and easier to scale. These ISVs include:

  • AlwaysAI: Provides tools, APIs, and model libraries for computer vision developers to accelerate time-to-solution.
  • CVEDIA: Develops synthetic data-driven AI models that deliver accurate, real-time video analytics to enhance security operations without requiring infrastructure overhaul.
  • OrionVM: Offers a customizable edge-to-cloud infrastructure stack that supports Blaize hardware for real-time inference.
  • Thrive Logic: Builds custom AI workflows for operational environments—ranging from predictive maintenance to hazard detection.
  • Videonetics: Integrates AI-driven analytics into its secure, scalable video management software for cities, airports, and critical infrastructure.
  • VSaaS.ai: Provides a no-code interface to configure, deploy, and monitor AI video pipelines.
  • VSBLTY: Delivers advanced audience analytics and real-time security software to retail environments, venues, and public infrastructure.

Hardware-Optimized Efficiency with Supermicro

For scalable, rack-mounted edge AI deployments, Blaize’s technology is also available in Supermicro’s 1U server system featuring 24 Blaize® GSP® Xplorer® X1600 EDSFF accelerators. This compact form factor delivers high-density inference performance for city-wide, industrial, and defense infrastructure – at a fraction of the energy and cooling costs of traditional GPU-heavy servers. The solution enables seamless orchestration across critical sectors and is complementary to existing GPU infrastructure where appropriate.
