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’s Corteca Cloud for device and Wi-Fi management adds hundreds of legacy broadband devices #MWC25

Press Release
Nokia’s Corteca Cloud for device and Wi-Fi management adds hundreds of legacy broadband devices #MWC25

  • Nokia Corteca Cloud now supports over 400 legacy broadband devices from over 30 manufacturers, providing CSPs with a single pane of glass that simplifies in-home Wi-Fi and device management.
  • Both the traditional TR-069 and the new TR-369 industry standard protocols are supported by the Nokia Corteca Cloud, providing a smooth transition path for CSPs.
  • For the past 20 years, TR-069 has been the industry standard for managing, provisioning, and troubleshooting over 1 billion broadband devices.   

20 February 2025
Espoo, Finland – Nokia today announced that it is adding support for 415 legacy TR-069-based broadband devices to its Corteca Cloud. Supporting both the legacy TR-069 and new TR-369 protocols, Nokia’s Corteca Cloud provides CSPs with a single pane of glass for legacy and new broadband devices, simplifying in-home Wi-Fi connectivity and device management.

For the past 20 years, the TR-069 protocol has been used to manage approximately 1 billion broadband devices worldwide, enabling CSPs to remotely provision and maintain customer-premises equipment (CPE). The new TR-369 protocol introduces significant new capabilities for new devices, but transitioning away from TR-069 will take years. By supporting both protocols, Nokia’s Corteca Cloud allows CSPs to manage devices efficiently today while adapting for the future.

Key benefits of Nokia’s Corteca Cloud for CSPs:

  • Smooth transition from TR-069 to TR-369 – A single pane of glass supports both TR-069 and TR-369, allowing CSPs to transition at their own pace.
  • Scalability & efficiency – Simplifies management of multiple customer devices, including third-party hardware, and reduces operational complexity.
  • Remote operations – Enables CSPs to configure, troubleshoot, and upgrade devices remotely, minimizing the need for on-site visits.
  • Reduced support costs – Automates Wi-Fi monitoring to proactively resolve issues, lowering customer support calls.

Justin Doucette, Head of WiFi and Software, Fixed Networks at Nokia, said: “Service providers need a practical path to the future, not a forced transition. By supporting both TR-069 and TR-369, Nokia Corteca Cloud gives operators the flexibility to manage today’s networks while preparing for what’s next— without disruption. Our solution provides a smooth evolution path and a single pane of glass for seamless visibility and control.”
