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.

drovi Transforms Event Networking with AI-Powered Engagement

By: Zexprwire

Manchester, Uk, 7th March 2025, ZEX PR WIRE, In an era where professional connections define opportunities, event networking remains frustratingly inefficient. Attendees struggle to meet the right people, organizers face engagement drop-offs, and communities fail to sustain momentum post-event. drovi, an AI-driven networking and event management platform, is solving these challenges with intelligent automation and gamified engagement tools, revolutionizing how professionals connect before, during, and after events.

The Problem: A Broken Networking Experience

Traditional networking at events is often chaotic and inefficient. Attendees enter crowded spaces, hoping to meet valuable connections but end up relying on chance encounters. Many professionals leave events feeling like they missed key opportunities. Event organizers, in turn, struggle to measure engagement and maintain community interactions beyond the event itself. The result? Wasted potential, disengaged attendees, and declining event retention rates.

drovi’s AI-Powered Solution

drovi eliminates the randomness of networking by leveraging AI matchmaking, predictive engagement tools, and automation. The platform ensures that attendees connect with the most relevant individuals based on their interests, goals, and industries. Its core features include:

  • AI Matchmaking: drovi’s proprietary algorithm recommends the best connections, ensuring every meeting is meaningful.
  • Automated Event Engagement: AI-driven content scheduling, staggered event detail releases, and real-time recommendations keep attendees engaged before and after events.
  • Gamified Networking: Interactive challenges, leaderboards, and engagement rewards encourage participation and make networking enjoyable.
  • White-Labeled Solutions: Enterprises and government organizations can deploy drovi’s AI networking suite for their own branded events, ensuring data security and regulatory compliance.
  • Security-First Engagement & Personalization: drovi takes the secure chat functionality of WhatsApp and the flexibility of LinkedIn, combining them into a powerful, enterprise-focused networking experience. Organizations benefit from encrypted AI-driven interactions that prioritize data privacy while delivering highly personalized engagement.

“We’re not just digitizing events; we’re optimizing human connections,” said Elliot Morris, CEO of drovi. “Our platform removes the guesswork from networking, ensuring professionals make valuable connections that drive career and business growth. Event organizers benefit from sustained engagement, analytics, and monetization tools, making drovi a game-changer for the industry.”

Market Growth & Competitive Edge

The professional networking industry is booming, with a projected growth from $53.23 billion in 2023 to $429.10 billion by 2028. While LinkedIn dominates online professional networking, and Eventbrite focuses on event ticketing, drovi bridges the gap between these worlds by combining AI-powered event networking, predictive engagement, and private enterprise solutions.

Unlike Meetup, which relies on organic group formation, drovi’s AI ensures curated connections, making networking seamless and efficient. Unlike LinkedIn, which is passive, drovi actively drives engagement before, during, and after events. And unlike Eventbrite, drovi doesn’t stop at ticketing—it fosters lasting professional relationships. By integrating secure AI-driven communication similar to WhatsApp with the networking power of LinkedIn, drovi ensures enterprises can build safe and controlled professional communities.

Expansion & Partnerships

With an ambitious roadmap, drovi is targeting enterprise and government partnerships across the GCC and MENA regions, launching corporate collaborations in Qatar and the UAE in 2025. Future phases include expansions into Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, and Egypt, integrating AI-driven networking across industries such as oil & gas, aviation, education, and corporate innovation hubs.

“Networking is the heartbeat of professional growth, yet traditional tools are outdated and disconnected from the way we interact today,” added Elliot Morris. “drovi is here to make engagement effortless, rewarding, and intelligent.”
