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.

Chainers Expands Its Vision with Immutable X Integration — Bringing Instant Play and Seamless Onboarding to a Player‑First Web3 World

Chêne-Bougeries, Switzerland - September 15, 2025[NEWS DIRECT Chainers, the free-to-play Web3 MMO  game that blends deep fun–first gameplay systems, user creativity, true item ownership, and real in–game token utility, today announced a major integration with Immutable X, the Layer‑2 scaling solution purpose‑built for games on Ethereum. The collaboration removes and wallet friction, enabling fast, reliable transactions and one‑click onboarding so players can focus on what matters most: playing, creating, and competing.

“Chainers was built around one core idea: games should put players first,” said Matvii Diadkov, the Chainers founder. “By integrating Immutable X, we remove the everyday frictions of Web3 — stalled transactions and difficult wallet setups — and bring a full‑featured ownership economy to players in the smooth, instant way they expect.”

A richer look at Chainers

Chainers is a multiplayer, progression‑driven experience that mixes exploration, crafting, PvP encounters and user‑driven economies. Designed to welcome both traditional gamers and Web3 newcomers, Chainers emphasizes creative freedom, collectible value, and meaningful progression.

Core gameplay pillars:

  1. Creative customization - Players craft and customize avatars, outfits and tools that reflect playstyle and personality. Cosmetic and utility items are minted as NFTs so they remain owned, tradable and storable outside any single account.

  2. Progression and rewards — Through quests, missions and competitive gameplay, players earn Immutable X–powered GEMS and other on‑chain rewards that can improve gear, unlock abilities, or grant access to exclusive content. In addition to GEMS, Chainers awards its native in‑game currency CFB, tradable crypto tokens such as POL and BNB, and a wide range of transferable in‑game assets and NFTs — all supported by Immutable X’s gas‑free marketplace for instant, predictable trading.

  3. Social hubs and co‑op - Community spaces, guild mechanics and social events provide ways to collaborate, show off collections and organize tournaments.

  4. Competitive play - PvP arenas and ranked systems reward skill and strategy while preserving the intrinsic value of items — what you earn is truly yours.

Where blockchain helps

Chainers uses blockchain to let players own what they create and earn. NFTs provide portability, provenance, and scarcity; items and achievements can be verified, traded, and potentially used across multiple titles. But Chainers’ team recognized early that these benefits only matter if blockchain doesn’t get in the way of fun, which is why Immutable X was a natural partner.

Why Immutable X matters for Chainers

Immutable X removes the classic blockers that have limited Web3 game adoption:

  • Instant settlement. Low‑latency, fast transactions mean items and rewards appear instantly — no stalled trades or failed purchases during peak moments.

  • Easy onboarding — Chainers already removed Web3 signup friction with one‑click Google and Twitter logins; now Immutable Passport adds email‑and‑password access, eliminating wallet setup and seed phrases and lowering the barrier for mainstream gamers.

  • Cross‑game possibilities. Immutable’s growing ecosystem opens the door for Chainers’ NFTs and progress to have utility beyond a single title, helping build a connected gaming metaverse rather than isolated silos.

  • Developer‑focused tooling. Immutable X provides SDKs and marketplace tools that let Chainers scale their economy and support creators, while preserving a gasless UX for end users.

What Chainers players will see next?

Chainers’ integration will be rolled out in phases. Upcoming features powered by Immutable X include:

  • Immutable Passport integration for frictionless account access and identity.

  • An exclusive Chainers NFT drop optimized for gas‑free minting and marketplace trading.

  • An upgraded GEMS & Quests reward layer that ties gameplay to on‑chain incentives without transaction headaches.

  • Marketplace and crafting updates that enable instant peer‑to‑peer trades and in‑game economy management.

  • Roadmap work toward wider interoperability with other Immutable‑powered titles.

  • Gas-free transactions (coming later)

“Players shouldn’t have to choose between polished gameplay and true ownership,” said the Head of Games Partnerships at Immutable X. “Immutable X allows Chainers to keep the gameplay feeling like any great Web2 experience while unlocking the unique benefits of blockchain — ownership, creator economies and cross‑game value.”

Business and community impact

For developers and creators, the integration reduces friction for onboarding and monetization. For players, Chainers becomes more accessible and predictable: no surprise fees, no complex wallet mechanics, and a reliable marketplace experience. The result is higher retention, more creator activity, and a marketplace that supports a sustainable creator economy.

Rollout and support

Chainers will publish detailed guides and in‑game prompts to help existing and new players transition to Immutable Passport and the gasless marketplace. The release will include community events to showcase the first NFT drops and updated questlines.
