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 Altiplano accelerates autonomous networks by introducing AI for broadband operations

Press Release
Nokia Altiplano accelerates autonomous networks by introducing AI for broadband operations

  • Nokia enhances Altiplano Access Controller with AIOps to drive better network decisions.
  • AI-powered applications and smart analytics improve network operations and resource utilization.

18 October 2024 – Nokia today announced the integration of AI-driven operations (AIOps) into its Altiplano Access Controller, an automation platform for broadband networks. The new AIOps uses artificial intelligence (AI) from applications in Nokia’s Altiplano Marketplace to analyze network data and drive automation.   By combining AI and smart analytics, AIOps allows operators to detect network anomalies faster, anticipate service-affecting issues before they occur, and improve network utilization.

Through the use of big data analytics, digital twins, and trained AI-agents, Nokia helps operators increase efficiency and drive higher levels of automation in network and service operations. By extending the Altiplano core platform with AI applications available in Nokia’s Altiplano Application Marketplace, operators can:

  • Detect network anomalies: Identifying anomalies with high accuracy before they impact services is essential to maintaining network reliability and customer satisfaction.
  • Improve network utilization: AI and digital twins help optimize network resources to enhance capacity planning and customer experiences.
  • Provide human assistance: AI assists human operators by simplifying incident management, speeding up problem resolution and, improving inventory accuracy. 

Nokia’s Altiplano Access Controller is the most widely deployed network automation platform on the market, used by over 160 broadband operators globally. Ranked as the #1 network automation platform for fixed network automation by Global Data, Nokia’s Altiplano Access Controller powers the largest and most advanced SDN networks in the world – including those serving over 1 million live subscribers.

Geert Heyninck, Vice President of Broadband Networks for Nokia Fixed Networks, said: “With AI and advanced network analytics, operators can gain deeper insights and make smarter decisions to ensure smooth operations. By detecting issues faster and optimizing resources, we’re moving closer to fully autonomous networks. This shift empowers operators to enhance customer experiences while letting AI handle complex network management.”
