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.

Asia-Pacific E-Commerce & Payments Market Intelligence Report 2025-2028: B2C, B2B, Innovations in Digital Payments, Adoption Patterns, and Shifting Dynamics - ResearchAndMarkets.com

The "Asia-Pacific E-Commerce & Payments 2025: Market Intelligence on B2C, B2B, Innovations in Digital Payments, Adoption Patterns, and Shifting Dynamics" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

This report provides an in-depth analysis of Asia-Pacific, covering B2C and B2B E-Commerce, the digital payments ecosystem, and the role of AI in commerce. It examines shopper behavior, merchant acceptance, and payment preferences, alongside regulatory frameworks and governance models. Regional findings highlight growth in online retail, evolving digital payment adoption, rising AI integration in commerce and payments, and the expansion of B2B marketplaces.

Asia-Pacific B2C E-Commerce Accelerates Across Major Markets

Asia-Pacific's retail E-Commerce is on track to approach USD 5 trillion by 2028, reaffirming the region as the largest force in global online retail. China anchors growth, while Southeast Asia's rising digital adoption and cross-border transactions are strengthening regional integration across both advanced and developing markets.

Digital Payments Reshape Consumer and Merchant Transactions

By 2028, Asia-Pacific will see 1.5 trillion non-cash transactions, underscoring its sharp departure from cash. Digital wallets dominate consumer payments, supported by ecosystems in China, Japan, South Korea, and Southeast Asia, where mobile-first commerce, BNPL models, and regulatory flexibility continue to expand.

AI Adoption Grows but Operational Gaps and Fraud Risks Persist

In 2025, just one-quarter of Southeast Asian sellers had fully embedded AI into operations, reflecting gaps between ambition and practice. At the same time, rising fraud risks are accelerating AI use in payment security, with regulatory sandboxes guiding responsible innovation and consumer safeguards.

B2B E-Commerce Expands Through Digital Trade Platforms and Marketplaces

Asia-Pacific's B2B online market is growing above +15% CAGR from 2022 to 2026, driven by digital procurement, cloud platforms, and global supply chains. Key marketplaces such as AliExpress, 1688.com, and IndiaMART, along with Japanese platforms, are enabling SME participation and boosting transparency in regional trade.

Key questions covered:

  • What was the number of online shoppers in China in December 2024?
