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.

Assent Recognized as a Leader in First-Ever Product Compliance Green Quadrant

By: PRLog
Independent analyst report highlights Assent's excellence in compliance-ready supplier data and AI-powered screening and monitoring

OTTAWA, Ontario - Oct. 1, 2025 - PRLog -- Assent Inc. (Assent), the global leader in supply chain sustainability management, has been named a Leader by Verdantix in their inaugural Green Quadrant: Product Compliance Software 2025. This report affirms Assent's product strategy, innovation, and momentum in helping manufacturers navigate complex global regulations. Assent achieved the highest scores out of all vendors in Supplier Data Management and Compliance Assurance, and Compliance Analytics and Reporting.

According to Verdantix, Assent also stood out in several key areas that are critical to manufacturers:
  • Automation, ease of use, and strong services for businesses requiring compliance support without heavy customization or IT dependency
  • Strength in product strategy, innovation, financial resources, customer success, and brand preference.
  • Ideal functionality for mid-size and enterprise firms without large compliance teams.
"Verdantix's inaugural Product Compliance Green Quadrant highlights a critical category, and we're honored to be recognized as a Leader," said Michael Southworth, CEO of Assent. "This achievement validates the impact we are delivering for manufacturers by helping compliance teams and their suppliers collect high-quality data, collaborate at scale, and make informed decisions with confidence. We will continue to innovate, invest in our customers' success, and lead the future of product compliance and sustainability with a focus on AI."

The Verdantix Green Quadrant: Product Compliance evaluated 11 product compliance software providers through detailed product demonstrations, a 119-point rubric, and 21 buyer interviews to assess technical capabilities, functional breadth, and market momentum, and to determine market-leading vendors. Analysts also highlighted Assent's managed services team, which extends beyond software and "effectively engages with suppliers, ensuring timely resolution of documentation, non-compliance, and outstanding issues." This recognition builds on Assent's position as a Leader in the independent research and advisory firm's 2024 Green Quadrant for Supply Chain Sustainability.

"As regulations shift and firms expand regional operations, modern product compliance solutions have evolved into platforms that help guide strategic business planning," noted the report, authored by Nathan Goldstein, Senior Manager, Verdantix, with Bill Pennington, VP of Research, Verdantix. "(Assent's) supplier portal – which benefits both compliance teams and suppliers – along with its AI-powered screening and monitoring, and full material disclosures (FMD) risk view, are powerful tools that enable even the smallest compliance teams to stay on top of important tasks."

Verdantix is one of the first independent analyst firms providing this depth of public evaluation in the product compliance space, making the report a significant milestone for both Assent and the industry. Verdantix's recognition comes as product compliance shifts to a strategic driver of product design, supplier management, and enterprise risk. Verdantix is an independent analyst firm that serves a global client base consisting of the world's most innovative corporations, technology and services vendors, and investors.
