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.

Telecom's Biggest Vendors Q2 2025: Vendor Market Bounces Back, but Tariffs Cast a Long Shadow - ResearchAndMarkets.com

The "Telecom's Biggest Vendors, 2Q25: Vendor Market Bounces Back, but Tariffs Cast a Long Shadow" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

The goal of this report series is to equip telecom industry decision-makers with a comprehensive view of spending trends and vendor market power in their industry. To do this, technology vendors' revenues in the telecom vertical are assessed across a wide range of company types and technology segments. This market is referred to as "telco network infrastructure", or "Telco NI."

This study tracks 137 Telco NI vendors, providing revenue and market share estimates for the 1Q13-2Q25 period (i.e. 50 quarters). Of these 137 vendors, 111 are actively selling to telcos; most others have been acquired by other companies in the database. For instance, ADVA is now part of Adtran, but both companies remain in the database because of historic sales.

Below are the key highlights of the report:

  • Revenues: Telco Network Infrastructure (NI) vendor revenues reached approximately $54.3 billion in 2Q25, representing a 2.0% YoY increase. Annualized revenue edged up 0.7% to about $207.7 billion, snapping a nine-quarter contraction and signaling a modest recovery in network infrastructure investments. Huawei, which assisted in softening the market decline earlier in 2024, reverted to a downtrend in 2Q25. Without Huawei's data included, market revenue growth is much stronger.
  • Top vendors: The traditional leaders Huawei, Ericsson, and Nokia accounted for roughly 35% of the Telco NI market on an annualized basis and 36.8% in 2Q25 alone. Huawei's market share has weakened notably since 2021 and faced persistent pressure outside China in 2025. Meanwhile, vendors like China Comservice and ZTE maintained their fight for the 4th and 5th positions.
  • Key vendors by YoY revenue growth: Dixon Technologies and Wiwynn led YoY revenue growth in 2Q25, fueled by Dixon's a low year-ago base, and Wiwynn's expansion in data center infrastructure linked to AI-driven digital transformation. Broadcom's surge continues, boosted by its VMware acquisition. Meanwhile, Alphabet, Microsoft, Amazon, Dell Technologies, and Harmonic grew through their digital transformation offerings.
  • Spending outlook: The outlook for 2H25 and beyond remains cautious, with gradual growth expected but tempered by macroeconomic uncertainty, tariffs, and geopolitical tensions. Capital spending will vary by region and operator readiness, as the broader market navigates evolving technology cycles and geopolitical complexities.
