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 enhances TM’s international optical network for hyperscaler connectivity demand

Press Release
Nokia enhances TM’s international optical network for hyperscaler connectivity demand

  • Advanced optical backbone to enhance hyperconnectivity across data centers and support AI-readiness, in line with TM’s strategic direction.
  • Nokia's field-proven optical technology will strengthen TM's network capacity and performance, meeting growing traffic demand with reduced latency.
  • TM to fulfil hyperscaler customers’ demands and become a leading provider of high-speed and reliable optical network services in Malaysia and Southeast Asia.

22 August 2024
Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia – Nokia has been selected by TM to build a dedicated international optical Dense Wavelength Division Multiplexing (DWDM) network, improving the management of growing data traffic and improving data center connectivity. Nokia’s industry-leading DWDM solution will allow TM to effectively support massive increments in data traffic and fulfil the increasing demand for cloud-based real-time and low-latency services and applications by its hyperscaler customers.

The new DWDM network will act as an express route for cross-country traffic, connecting the Malaysia-Thailand border to the Malaysia-Singapore border. It will provide hyperconnectivity to the main data centers in Malaysia and a cable landing station to accommodate the exponential growth of data traffic across these countries. Once completed, the new network will help TM expedite its adoption of Artificial Intelligence (AI) to leverage automation for enhanced network performance and operations.

Powered by Nokia’s fifth-generation super-coherent Photonic Service Engine (PSE-Vs), the all-optical network will provide superior transmission performance over long distances, leading to improved capacity, scalability and interoperability while ensuring environmental sustainability through its low energy consumption per bit. By transmitting signals over a single fiber optic cable, TM will be able to efficiently manage the massive volumes of data generated by hyperscalers.

TM will also leverage the Nokia WaveSuite platform to optimize its network and operations while monetizing its network assets through the service enablement application.

John Harrington, Senior Vice President and Head of Asia Pacific Sales for Network Infrastructure at Nokia, said: “As a trusted partner to TM, we are delighted to collaborate with our customer to help accelerate the adoption of AI and address the ever-growing hyperconnectivity of traffic. Our best-in-class optical solutions will enable TM to provide a sustainable and world-class network experience to its end users in the region. Our technical lab in Malaysia, coupled with local manufacturing of DWDM gear, allows us to ensure the timely and smooth execution of this important project.”
