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.

NEAR and TRON Enable Seamless Cross-Chain Stablecoin Transfers with NEAR Intents Integration

 

 

Geneva, Switzerland, September 4, 2025  – TRON DAO, the community-governed DAO dedicated to accelerating the decentralization of the internet through blockchain technology and decentralized applications (dApps), today announced a strategic collaboration with NEAR to integrate NEAR Intents on the TRON blockchain. The integration enables seamless swaps through a frictionless, intent-based experience for users and ecosystem developers. NEAR Intents is a multichain transaction protocol that allows users to make a request and let third parties compete to provide the best solution. The protocol can be applied to a wide range of use cases, creating a universal marketplace across crypto and traditional services.

 

NEAR Intents redefines user experience and onboarding across the greater crypto space by abstracting away blockchain complexity. The addition of TRON to NEAR’s chain abstraction stack represents a major milestone, unlocking cross-chain transfers that require no wallet setup, no bridging, and no awareness of chain mechanics required for users on one of the world's most active blockchains. NEAR’s chain abstraction allows AI to interact with assets, applications, and services across multiple chains as if they were a single system, streamlining user behaviors into clear and direct actions. By integrating TRON, which hosts one of the largest global blockchain user communities, NEAR demonstrates how chain abstraction can be leveraged to increase adoption by removing friction for users at scale. 

 

“NEAR Intents going live on TRON is a significant step in making blockchain technology more accessible and powerful for users worldwide,” said Sam Elfarra, Community Spokesperson for the TRON DAO. “Combining TRON's massive user base with NEAR's innovative chain abstraction technology positions both ecosystems to drive the next phase of Web3 adoption.”

 

“Swapping native assets in a single click delivers true interoperability, unlocking new possibilities in DeFi and AI for users and builders on TRON,” said Illia Polosukhin, co-founder of NEAR Protocol. “We’re happy to welcome the TRON community into the NEAR Intents ecosystem and continue advancing the unified liquidity layer.”

 

As TRON continues to advance to meet the growing needs of institutions, emerging opportunities in stablecoin innovation, agent-driven finance, and AI-powered intents will further reinforce its standing as a leading blockchain. By combining institutional-scale capability with a commitment to financial inclusion, TRON is laying the groundwork for mainstream adoption and a more accessible global economy.

 

The blockchain industry is moving  toward greater interoperability, and NEAR Intents on TRON demonstrates how barriers to entry can be removed while scaling decentralized finance. Developers interested in integrating TRON cross-chain capabilities can access documentation and resources at SwapKit.dev, while users can begin experiencing seamless USDT swaps immediately through supported wallets and applications.
