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.

Nokia expands Fixed Network SaaS suite with AI solution to strengthen operators’ service offering

Press release 

Nokia expands Fixed Network SaaS suite with AI solution to strengthen operators’ service offering

22 May 2023

Espoo, Finland – Nokia today announced an expansion of its Fixed Network solutions suite available through a Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) delivery model, with the launch of AVA Fixed Network Insights that will enable operators to strengthen their customer service offering while reducing operating costs.

Using AI/ML insights powered by Bell Labs algorithms across DSL, fiber, and fixed wireless access networks, AVA Fixed Network Insights provides operations and customer care teams with automated recommendations to proactively identify and remotely resolve problems within both home and access domains before they lead to network service problems; and to reduce call handling times and improve first call resolution.

Through services consumed purely on demand through a subscription, Nokia’s approach to telecom SaaS is about enhancing operators’ ability to launch new services faster, improve time to value more quickly, and cut complexity. It also avoids large, up front investments and the need to perform on-site software maintenance and updates.

AVA Fixed Network Insights is expected to eventually entail chatbot-driven support through easy-to-implement recommendations that can be utilized by the end-user without the need for onsite or remote technical support.

AVA Fixed Network Insights is expected to be commercially available by the end of this year.

Nokia’s Fixed Networks applications, including Altiplano Access Controller and WiFi Cloud Controller, can already be deployed by operators through a SaaS subscription.

Julie Kunstler, Chief Analyst, Broadband Access Intelligent Service, at Omdia, said: “The SaaS delivery model is a critical piece of digital transformation for operators. Nokia’s new Fixed Network Insights SaaS component provides operators with another needed pathway towards AIOps-driven, self-healing fixed broadband networks.”

Mark Bunn, Senior Vice President, Cloud and Network Services, at Nokia, said: “Achieving faster time to value and lower TCO for our customers are core tenets to Nokia telecom SaaS. AVA Fixed Network Insights represents a strong companion to the existing suite of Fixed Networks applications that are already delivering strong results to customers through a SaaS subscription.”
