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.

Skyvia Introduces MCP Server: A Service that Enables AI Assistants to Work with Live Business Data

By: Newsfile

Skyvia MCP Server makes customer data available to AI tools via the open Model Context Protocol (MCP), so AI assistants can securely analyze, summarize, and act on CRM, ERP, databases, and more in real time.

Dover, Delaware--(Newsfile Corp. - September 29, 2025) - Skyvia, the most comprehensive data integration platform, announced the release of MCP Server that enables users to expose data to AI through MCP endpoints. Teams can now quickly connect 200+ cloud apps and databases and use natural language to query data or perform actions, while Skyvia handles all backend complexity.

"Enterprises want AI agents to have a secure, real-time access to business data with the ability take actions—not just generate answers," said Oleksandr Khirnyi, Chief Product Officer at Skyvia. "MCP Endpoints provide teams with a secure, no-code way of letting AI assistants, such as Claude, discover, query, and act on data, while Skyvia handles the hard parts behind the scenes."

Key Capabilities of MCP Server

No-Code Setup

Set up an MCP endpoint in minutes with an intuitive wizard-no coding, scripts, or API-related work needed.

Real-Time Data Access

Give AI assistants governed access to live data from systems, ensuring accurate answers and timely actions.

API Complexity Handled

Skip the hassles of rate limits, schema management, and pagination—Skyvia abstracts the heavy lifting across 200+ connectors.

Enterprise-Grade Security & Control

Protect endpoints with IP allowlists, passwords, and encryption.

Multi-Source Connectivity

Expose data and actions from CRMs, ERPs, databases, and spreadsheets—from Salesforce, HubSpot, and Google Sheets to SQL Server, PostgreSQL, and more.

From Questions to Actions with Live AI Access
Skyvia MCP Endpoints connect AI assistants directly to customers' data in real time and securely so users can:

Generate On-Demand Reports & Insights
Deliver instant sales, marketing, and finance summaries across multiple systems to accelerate data-driven decisions.
Take Instant Actions
Go beyond answers—add new records directly in the CRM, create follow-up tasks, and more.

Analysts, operations leads, and product managers can give their AI assistants controlled, real-time access to business systems with no code or API management required.

Powered by the Open Model Context Protocol (MCP)
Model Context Protocol (MCP) is an open standard that streamlines how Large Language Models integrate with external tools, systems, and data sources. MCP presents data sources as tools (executable functions AI agents can discover and invoke) so AI can securely work with data using a universal interface.

How It Works

  1. Create a Connection
    Choose from 200+ data sources—Salesforce, HubSpot, PostgreSQL, Google Sheets, and more—and connect in a few clicks.
  2. Create an MCP Endpoint
    Use the visual wizard to pick a connection and optionally configure security (IP allowlists and user authentication). The endpoint provides access to all data available via the selected connection.
    Note: Not all MCP clients support endpoints with authentication.
  3. Connect to the AI Assistant
    Link the endpoint to an MCP-compatible AI client. Ask questions, get answers, and take actions in real time.

Get Started with MCP Server
MCP Server is now available in Skyvia. Users can create their first MCP endpoint, link it to their AI assistant, and start working with live business data via natural language.
