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.

The Future of FX in Africa? Stablecoins and OTC Trading Take Centre Stage

By: PRLog
DUBAI, UAE - Aug. 11, 2025 - PRLog -- A new report titled "The Rise of OTC and Stablecoins: Africa's Quiet FX Revolution" sheds light on a transformative shift in how cross-border transactions are conducted across Sub-Saharan Africa. The findings reveal a surge in the adoption of stablecoins and over-the-counter (OTC) cryptocurrency trading, signaling a major evolution in the region's financial landscape.

The report created by TechCabal Insights, in collaboration with Quidax Technologies FZCO, the report combines proprietary data and interviews with market leaders to illustrate how stablecoins are reshaping settlement and liquidity flows on the continent.

The research shows that stablecoins now represent 43% of all cryptocurrency transactions in Sub-Saharan Africa, marking a significant increase from previous years. Global OTC crypto volumes surged by 106% year-over-year in 2024, with much of this growth driven by Africa-focused stablecoin activity. Nigeria emerged as a global leader, ranking second only to India in crypto transaction volumes, with over $59 billion processed last year. Ethiopia and Zambia also experienced remarkable expansion, each recording more than 100% year-over-year growth in stablecoin inflows, underscoring the momentum of adoption across diverse markets.

Businesses across Africa are increasingly turning to OTC desks and stablecoins to streamline cross-border payments, manage FX volatility, and access faster, more compliant settlement solutions. Far from being late to the party, the report available here positions Africa as a pivotal frontier in the global digital finance revolution.
