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.

5 August 2025
Seoul, South Korea – Nokia today announced that Empyrion Digital, a leading digital infrastructure provider in Asia, will deploy its data center gateway and aggregation switches in Empyrion’s newly launched Gangnam Data Center in Seoul, Korea.

Empyrion develops and operates data centers that connect and scale digital ecosystems across key cities in Asia for hyperscale and enterprise colocation companies.

Nokia’s industry-leading IP network solution includes the 7250 Interconnect Router (IXR) used as the data center gateways, core network switches, and 7210 Service Access System (SAS) used as the access switch for Empyrion’s IT systems. The digital infrastructure provider will benefit from improved reliability, scalability, and overall operational efficiency of its data center interconnect network.

“We are excited to partner with Nokia to use their data center solutions to provide a world-class network performance to our hyperscalers and enterprise customers in Korea. Nokia’s strong track record, robust IP network solutions, combined with its strong regional supply chain and service footprint, made it a natural choice to strengthen our network. Beyond Korea, we are looking forward to working with Nokia in accelerating the digital transformation in the region,” said Yongsuk Choi, Chief Strategy Officer - Product & Infrastructure, Empyrion Digital.

“Nokia’s state-of-the-art Data Center Fabric solution will enable Empyrion Digital to better manage the growing data traffic demands while delivering high network performance. Our field-proven solutions are helping digital infrastructure providers across the Asia Pacific region to benefit from improved scalability and reliability while making the networks more energy efficient,” said Kent Wong, Vice President and Head of IP Networks for Asia Pacific at Nokia.

Nokia 7250 IXR and 7210 SAS are designed to address the evolving needs of digital infrastructure players, helping them to ensure automation-ready and more energy-efficient networks. Nokia’s strong supply chain in the region will play a crucial role in fast-tracking the deployment.
