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.

Safe Software Unveils FME Realize: Making Spatial Computing Real, Live, and Actionable

By: via GlobeNewswire

Surrey, BC, May 06, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Today, Safe Software (Safe), the leading All-Data, Any-AI enterprise integration vendor with unrivalled support for spatial data, announced the launch of FME Realize, a powerful Augmented Reality (AR) solution that connects field workers to an organization’s entire data ecosystem, including digital twins, through Augmented Reality. Unveiled and demonstrated live today at the company’s largest user conference to date, The Peak of Data and AI 2025 in Seattle, Washington, FME Realize is now available to FME Flow users at no cost. 

FME Realize bridges the gap between the digital world and the physical world, extending the power of the FME Platform to spatial computing. Built on Safe’s no-code platform and designed with field workers in mind, the solution allows users to visualize, update, and interact with digital twins in real time and in context from any iOS device.

“FME Realize is a first-of-its-kind solution that brings the power of all data to the field, where up-to-date access matters most,” said Don Murray, CEO of Safe Software. “FME Realize leverages FME workflows using all data types and any AI, so users can interact with any data, including digital twins to take action, and make smarter decisions on-site, in real time, from any device.”

For all field workers, from city workers to utility workers, site engineers, and more, FME Realize shows data such as 3D models of infrastructure assets (e.g. water pipes and electrical networks) up-to-date and in context. Users can also update and modify data in real time based on their on-site assessments and invoke AI agents to provide analysis and deliver insights on demand.

“As a leader in our transportation discipline, T. Baker Smith piloted this cutting-edge AR solution and saw transformative results,” said TJ Stokes, Transportation Practice Leader at T. Baker Smith. “By visualizing subsurface utilities and infrastructure in 3D, we improved collaboration across survey, inspection, and design teams, reducing rework, enhancing safety, and accelerating decision-making. AR-enabled plan-in-hand meetings brought clarity to complex projects, helping us avoid delays and spot potential conflicts early. It’s more than a helpful tool; it’s a smart investment that reshapes how infrastructure projects are delivered.”

FME Realize is available now with FME Flow. For more information about FME Realize and Safe’s Augmented Reality solutions, visit fme.safe.com/platform.
