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.

Business Calling Market IT Survey Report 2025 | Demand for Diverse Deployment and Connectivity Models Reigns - ResearchAndMarkets.com

The "Business Calling Market: Demand for Diverse Deployment and Connectivity Models Reigns" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

The 2025 IT decision-maker (ITDM) survey was conducted to gain insights on the following end-user organizations' priorities:

  • Demand for cloud/mobile private branch exchange (PBX) and unified-communications-as-a-service (UCaaS) functionality
  • Evolution of enterprise telephony/business call control environments
  • Demand for mobile voice and data services
  • Demand for desktop internet protocol (IP), cordless (Digital Enhanced Cordless Telecommunications (DECT) and voice over wireless local access network (VoWLAN), mobile and software communications endpoints
  • Managed services adoption

This analysis will be complemented by additional ITDM survey-based reports detailing:

  • IT challenges
  • work style and workspace evolution
  • current and future technology adoption
  • communications and collaboration budgets
  • trends in communications platform as a service (CPaaS)
  • meeting rooms modernization
  • vertical communications challenges and investment priorities

Our survey methodology was designed to meet two primary objectives:

  • Capture insights from a robust sample of IT decision-makers (ITDMs) to accurately assess market trends across regions, countries, industries, and organization sizes.
  • Ensure that technology-specific questions were answered by respondents with relevant expertise, specifically those with moderate to high knowledge in the respective technology areas.

To fulfill the first objective, the publisher conducted interviews with 1,198 individuals who identified as IT and/or telecom decision-makers or influencers, all of whom had visibility into IT/telecom budgets and investment priorities.

To address the second objective, respondents were segmented into three groups based on their self-reported expertise in the following areas:

  • Enterprise Telephony (n = 586)
  • Video Collaboration (n = 544)
  • Communications Integration and CPaaS (n = 570)

The insights presented in this study are drawn from either the full sample of ITDMs or the subset with moderate to high knowledge of enterprise telephony, depending on the context of the analysis.
