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.

Lenovo Implements AI to Create Awareness of Gen Z’s Mental Health

Lenovo’s Work For Humankind has taken a bold step forward, incorporating AI and cutting-edge tech to delve into the digital personas of today’s youth. The program, titled ‘Meet Your Digital Self’, aims to help Gen Z in their mental struggles by developing 3D, life-like personas of their digital personalities. 

Younger people, especially Gen Z, are seen to suffer from mental problems the most. More than 67% of the generation feels they are distinct from their online selves, while 49% believe it’s easier to talk about their feelings online. This concern has been one of the prominent reasons for loneliness and depression in the population. 

Lenovo utilized its latest AI and tech solutions in this maiden research to bring digital personas to life. Two participants were able to have natural conversations with their online personalities and family members, brought to human-like avatars. The company accessed data participants put into their online accounts to craft 3D personas that could adjust their expressions, tones, and movements with real-time discussions.   

The tech company partnered with prominent mental health NGOs, including Shout in the UK, Anata no Ibasho in Japan, and Crisis Text Line in Puerto Rico and the USA. These non-profits provide supervised training to individuals who then offer mental health support to millions in need.  

Shout’s mental health director, Sarah Kendrick, said, “One in eight people globally grapple with a mental health condition, with Gen Z experiencing the greatest impact, where that figure rises to one in five. The type of AI innovation in Lenovo’s ‘Meet Your Digital Self’ social experiment shows promise as a way in which generations with different understandings of online personas can meet and understand each other.”

According to Lenovo, 60% of Gen Z feel hesitant to have in-depth conversations with their family. The talk helped family members understand and accept facts about their youngsters’ true selves as they present themselves online. The experiment proved that technology can positively impact the mental health of Gen Z and bridge the gap between their digital and real-world identities.

“It’s necessary to realize the importance of healthy digital balance for mental health,” said Emily Ketchen, CMO at Lenovo. “We must implement smart technologies and AI responsibly for the well-being of all. We hope Lenovo’s broad technologies and ‘Meet Your Digital Self’ social experiment could work together to benefit society and communities globally.”
