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.

From Crowdsourcing to Intelligence: How EPWK Is Rebuilding the Creative Platform with AI

By: Get News

EPWK (NASDAQ: EPWK), a China-based digital creative services platform, is moving beyond traditional crowdsourcing by embedding AI across its service infrastructure. What started as a transaction-driven marketplace is now evolving into a smart, automated ecosystem.

Rethinking Crowdsourcing Through AI

The old model of online creative outsourcing—manual selection, vague briefs, and keyword-based matching—was increasingly inefficient. EPWK identified this bottleneck early and began integrating AI to improve how tasks and talent connect.

With natural language processing and deep learning models at its core, EPWK’s “AI Assistant” helps employers define clear project requirements through multi-turn dialogue, and estimates budgets based on historical data. On the supply side, AI recommends projects to freelancers based on skills, past jobs, and client ratings—effectively acting as a digital agent that boosts visibility for qualified creators.

AI-Driven Tools and Patented Matching Systems

EPWK has built a patented task recommendation system that models relationships between freelancers, tasks, and tags to generate accurate, personalised project matches. A second patent improves cold-start performance, allowing new users to receive meaningful recommendations from day one.

These tools reduce friction, accelerate decision-making, and surface the right opportunities to the right people—making the platform more responsive and efficient at scale.

Invisible Automation at Work

Beyond matching, AI also supports platform-wide operations:

• Risk Monitoring: AI models detect fraud, spam bidding, and other suspicious behaviours by analysing transaction and message data.

• Smart Support: AI-powered bots resolve common user queries, freeing human agents to handle more complex issues.

• Analytics: System-wide data is continuously analysed to inform strategic planning, user training, and product development.

Toward a Smarter Creative Ecosystem

EPWK now operates less like a marketplace and more like a semi-autonomous network—where AI matches tasks, flags risk, refines pricing, and supports creative collaboration at scale. The company is already exploring next-step innovations like AI-based project supervision, on-demand virtual team assembly, and immersive creative environments.

By combining technical infrastructure with applied machine learning, EPWK aims to build the next-generation operating system for the creative economy—one that is scalable, secure, and insight-driven.

P.S.: EPWK is operated by Xiamen EPWK Network Technology Co., Ltd., a national high-tech enterprise in China and a Nasdaq-listed company (EPWK) as of February 6, 2025. It has 179 tech achievements (including 137 software copyrights) and 17 patent applications (9 granted). The company is recognized as a leader in digital crowdsourcing infrastructure and a key player in China’s creative economy.
