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.

A New Blueprint for DeFi: How AKAS DAO Challenges the Status Quo

By: Zexprwire

Denmark, Europe, 4th June 2025, ZEX PR WIRE, Decentralized Finance (DeFi) was once seen as a breakthrough toward democratizing finance — promising transparent, fair, and permissionless financial services. Yet the growing influence of capital forces has led many DeFi projects astray from their original vision. Ironically, some protocols have become new tools for centralized interest groups.

In 2021, Olympus DAO pioneered the Protocol-Owned Liquidity (POL) model, aiming to reduce liquidity dependence and improve the stability of DeFi ecosystems. While innovative, POL did not fully solve the problems of liquidity manipulation, especially when facing market volatility or whale attacks.

This is where AKAS DAO steps in.

From Vision to Mechanism: A Radical Response to DeFi’s Broken Promises

AKAS DAO is not just patching up legacy frameworks — it rethinks DeFi from the ground up. From its inception, AKAS DAO set an ambitious and unwavering goal: eliminate capital privilege and rebuild a financial system rooted in fairness.

To that end, AKAS DAO introduced a revolutionary global fair-launch mechanism — one that prohibits all forms of early access, insider deals, or bot sniping. Every participant, regardless of capital size, starts from the same level playing field.

But even more importantly, AKAS executed a symbolic and technical milestone: permanent blackhole burn of all Genesis LP tokens.

This hard-coded design cuts off all backdoors, ensuring that no entity can use “internal LP” tokens to manipulate liquidity. In simple terms — no pre-mining, no insider cash-outs, and no capital-powered governance.

Not Just Tech — A Governance Revolution

These aren’t just technical upgrades; they’re structural reforms.

While most DeFi projects attempt to strike a delicate balance between fundraising efficiency and community fairness, AKAS DAO rips up the old rulebook — boldly redefining how power and incentives should be distributed.

In an era plagued by broken promises, rug pulls, and centralization masquerading as decentralization, AKAS DAO enters the scene with a radical and timely solution. Its mechanisms and message are a direct response to the crisis of trust that DeFi faces today.

Market Response & Future Potential

Although AKAS DAO is still in its early warm-up phase, market observers have already taken note of its potential impact. Some believe that this mechanism design — which blocks privileged access from the very beginning — could usher in a new wave of governance structure reform across the entire DeFi ecosystem.
It is not merely a call for “more decentralization,” but a real-world demonstration that DeFi can indeed be fair — if one is truly willing to sacrifice vested interests.

Whether this model can be widely replicated remains to be seen. But AKAS DAO has undoubtedly presented a new direction worth serious consideration.

The future of DeFi does not lie in more complex financial products, but in the practice of simpler and purer principles.
What AKAS DAO is doing is returning to DeFi’s original promise: to hand power back to users, not capital.
In this volatile and ever-changing crypto world, such conviction may well be the rarest asset of all.

About AKAS DAO

Born from the Deep Web Civilization — Ushering in a New Era of Global Financial Collaboration

AKAS DAO is a fully on-chain decentralized financial protocol designed to eliminate capital privilege and rebuild a global system of financial coordination. Centered on the AS token, it incorporates ten core mechanisms including staking, bonding, burn bonds, and resonance-based rewards — creating an anti-manipulation, transparent, sustainable, and belief-driven community-autonomous system.
