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.

Introducing AI into wireless networks layer by layer to unlock network potential

To address the dual challenges of a 100-fold increase in mobile AI traffic and green development, Huawei has proposed Three Critical Factors regarding AI adoption in wireless networks:
  • Effectiveness: Focusing on the multi-scenario generalization capabilities of AI, Huawei has continuously explored and innovated in AI models and algorithms based on specific scenarios and business needs, overcoming the limitations of single-scenario AI and achieving widespread applicability across different scenarios.
  • Reliability: This is to ensure long-term, stable, and trustworthy operation of AI in wireless networks, avoid unpredictable anomalies or hallucinations, and strictly control parameter setting, data privacy protection, and network security.
  • Cost: Considering the need to prioritize efficiency for wireless networks, Huawei has continuously optimized the allocation of computing power and operators, introducing AI capabilities into wireless networks layer by layer to achieve the optimal balance between performance and cost.

Three directions of innovation for AgenticRAN: Using AI where it matters most

· Agentic Service: Opening up and monetizing network capabilities​
By leveraging agentic AI, Huawei has transformed traditional complex API calls into an intent-as-a-service model. This enables carriers to flexibly orchestrate multi-dimensional network capabilities using natural language, to adapt to diverse scenarios and experience requirements. Compared with conventional methods, the new model is easier to deploy and more responsive, and can significantly reduce time-to-market for new services, allowing carriers to efficiently monetize their network capabilities.

· Agentic AN: Intent-driven intelligent collaborative networks
Huawei has launched the multi-agent collaborative interface AGLink to achieve efficient coordination among multiple Executor Agents under the management of a Leader Agent. AGLink places emphasis on high reliability, high security, and privacy protection. Network optimization intentions can be directly described in natural language and then automatically translated for network deployment, significantly boosting operational efficiency. Huawei will work alongside carriers to define standards for intent interfaces and promote the standardization of A2A-T interfaces within the TM Forum (TMF) and the 3rd Generation Partnership Project (3GPP).

· Huawei adopts an adaptive approach to introducing AI and algorithms into wireless networks, continuously improving the spectral efficiency and energy efficiency of wireless communications, and flexibly utilizing time, frequency, space, and power resources to achieve the optimal balance between performance and efficiency.

Opening a new chapter in the mobile AI era

AgenticRAN will unleash the full potential of AI in scenarios where it can truly add value, delivering superior user experience and significantly increasing spectral efficiency, energy efficiency, and operational efficiency to minimize TCO. Huawei firmly believes this is just the beginning. Moving forward, Huawei will collaborate with carriers and other industry partners to transform limited wireless resources into unlimited innovation possibilities, to jointly open a new chapter for autonomous networks in the mobile AI era.
