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.

Verisk Launches Generative AI Commercial Underwriting Assistant to Revolutionize Risk Assessment and Underwriting Efficiency

By: via GlobeNewswire

JERSEY CITY, N.J., Sept. 16, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Verisk (Nasdaq: VRSK), a leading strategic data analytics and technology partner to the global insurance industry, today announced the launch of its Commercial GenAI Underwriting Assistant, a cloud-based solution designed to modernize commercial property underwriting. Powered by Verisk’s advanced data analytics and generative AI, this solution enables underwriters to make more informed decisions with greater ease and speed, helping them improve profitability outcomes and adapt to the ever-evolving commercial property market.

Verisk’s new Commercial GenAI Underwriting Assistant:

  • Harnesses generative AI capabilities to automate workflows and manual tasks, summarize complex datasets via data ingestion and deliver real-time risk appetite insights to accelerate underwriting risk assessment.
  • Integrates into existing policy administration and underwriting systems as an API-enabled solution, ensuring flexibility, scalability and security.
  • Enhances decision-making via a "Human-in-the-Loop" approach by combining AI-driven insights with expert judgment, rather than replacing it.

“Automation is no longer a luxury for insurers—it’s a necessity,” said Doug Caccese, co-president of underwriting solutions at Verisk. “As strategic partners to our clients and leaders in modeling and rating support, we want to help insurers evolve their workflows in a future-proof and scalable way. Our new AI assistant offers the industry trustworthy, responsible innovation at scale that will support and augment the expertise of insurance professionals, while also increasing speed and efficiency.”

Tackling the industry’s most pressing challenges

Insurers are facing rising costs, tighter margins and a shrinking workforce—threatening institutional knowledge. Verisk’s Commercial GenAI Underwriting Assistant addresses these critical industry pain points by enhancing operational efficiency, delivering actionable insights to help improve pricing and automating risk submission intake. 

According to Verisk’s 2025 State of the Industry Survey:

  • 43 percent of respondents cited profitability as their organization’s top priority, followed by revenue and growth at 28 percent.
  • 36 percent identified digital transformation and tech modernization as their biggest challenge.
  • Most notably, 69 percent believe AI and generative AI will have the most significant impact on the industry over the next five years.

These findings, based on responses from 264 Verisk Insurance Conference attendees, underscore the urgent need for intelligent automation and data-driven decision support to enhance underwriting profitability.

Verisk’s Commercial GenAI Underwriting Assistant was developed in a private and protected environment, rooted in the ethical use of AI principles—fairness, accountability, inclusivity, transparency and privacy. You can read more about Verisk’s Commitment to Responsible and Ethical AI here.
