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.

Understand Tech Unveils Major Platform Update to Empower Secure, Scalable AI Deployment for Enterprises

By: Zexprwire

Paris, France, 12th June 2025, ZEX PR WIRE, Understand Tech, a leading enterprise AI platform, today announced a significant product update designed to meet the evolving demands of security-conscious organizations. The latest enhancements focus on on-premise deployment, intelligent document generation, advanced AI capabilities, and expanded integration with enterprise tools—solidifying Understand Tech’s position as a trusted solution for regulated and large-scale enterprise environments.

On-Premise AI: Security at the Core

With heightened concerns around data privacy and compliance, Understand Tech now supports full on-premise deployment of its AI platform. This includes Understand AI, a powerful local Large Language Model (LLM) that runs entirely offline—eliminating the need for external API calls and offering complete control over data processing.

In addition, organizations leveraging AWS can now deploy the platform effortlessly using Infrastructure as Code, enabled through public Terraform templates. The platform also now supports Single Sign-On (SSO) via OpenID Connect, ensuring streamlined and secure access management.

Chained Prompts: Solving Long-Form AI Output

The update introduces Chained Prompts, a groundbreaking feature that overcomes the context and length limitations of traditional LLMs. Enterprises can now upload a structured sequence of prompts, which are processed step-by-step and merged into a single cohesive output. This capability is ideal for complex document generation such as contracts, technical specifications, test suites, and compliance reports.

Enhanced LLM Capabilities and RAG Optimization

Understanding AI has been upgraded to deliver improved multi-step reasoning, structural coherence, and factual accuracy. Optimized for Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG), the model can now deliver more relevant and accurate results, while remaining fully offline or hosted in private cloud environments.

Refined User Experience

A redesigned user interface brings a host of usability upgrades including streaming replies for real-time responsiveness and a vertical model selector for simplified navigation between AI models. The chat interface also now includes a larger interactive area and streamlined navigation to enhance productivity.

Deep Integration and Customization

With the launch of a Custom Chat Widget, enterprises can now embed Understand Tech’s assistant within their own platforms, fully customizing visual elements including iconography, color schemes, branding, and welcome messages creating a seamless user experience.

Understand Tech has also integrated directly with n8n, a popular open-source workflow automation tool. This native integration enables businesses to trigger backend logic from within the chat interface, allowing actions such as sending alerts, updating databases, or calling internal APIs—paving the way for intelligent automation.

In addition, CRM integration has been expanded to include Zoho CRM, alongside existing support for HubSpot, allowing businesses to directly capture and sync user information and chat transcripts.

Looking Ahead: Agentic AI on the Horizon

Building on this foundation, Understand Tech is actively developing Agentic AI capabilities. Set to roll out in Q3 2025, users will soon be able to configure assistants capable of scheduling meetings, triggering workflows, and executing API calls autonomously—all driven by natural conversation logic.

This development is a direct response to enterprise feedback, reflecting Understand Tech’s ongoing commitment to innovation and customer-centric design.

Availability

All features are now live and available for both cloud-based and on-premise deployments.
