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.

Press Release
Nokia and Andorix partner to accelerate Private 5G and Edge solutions in North American real estate market 

  • Private 5G, Neutral Host Network and Edge Application OT solutions enabled by Nokia Digital Automation Cloud (DAC) to enable efficient building operations and improve tenant’s satisfaction. 

2 June 2025
Espoo, Finland – Nokia and Andorix, a provider of digital infrastructure and smart building solutions for real estate properties, announced a partnership to accelerate the adoption of private 5G networks and Neutral Host Networks in the real estate market across the United States and Canada.

Real estate owners are looking for a 5G private cellular platform to connect their Operational Technology (OT) use cases, including energy management and efficiency, building operations and optimization, as well as physical and cybersecurity on a resilient infrastructure. Additionally, real estate companies want a converged and future proof smart 5G platform that can expand indoor cellular coverage to improve their tenant’s experience with connectivity and value-added edge applications.

This collaboration brings together Nokia’s global leadership in private 5G wireless solutions with Nokia Digital Automation Cloud (DAC) and MX Industrial Edge (MXIE), as well as Andorix’s deep expertise in designing and deploying scalable in-building converged networks within real estate environments. The companies are working to bring fast, reliable 5G indoor for commercial, retail, residential and industrial property, making it easier to enable new technologies like VR and indoor navigation, facilitate IoT deployments, and solve common issues like unreliable connectivity and stronger security needs.

“Private 5G networks are transforming how enterprises operate, and in-building connectivity is a critical piece of that puzzle. By partnering with Andorix, we are combining best-in-class 5G technology with proven in-building converged network deployment expertise to support the growing demand for private 5G connectivity within the built environment in North America,” said Willie Kopp, Head of Enterprise Campus Edge Sales, North America, Nokia.

Nokia has deployed private wireless networks for 890 customers globally, with 24 percent of those customers in North America. Andorix brings hands-on experience managing converged network infrastructure deployments in Class A commercial, residential and mixed-use developments—where reliable indoor connectivity is critical for efficient building operations and tenant satisfaction. 

“Andorix is excited to partner with Nokia to deliver cutting-edge 5G solutions that meet the evolving needs of enterprise clients. With our track record of modernizing in-building network infrastructure across major commercial real estate properties, this partnership will solve some of the challenges faced by the real estate sector in terms of inconsistent connectivity, support for massive IoT deployments within complex or high-value built environments, growing security demands and enabling immersive technologies like VR and indoor navigation,” said Wayne Kim, Founding Partner and CEO of Andorix.
