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.

Zak Manhire Launches Mint. io: A Web3 Gaming Platform Driven By AI That Prioritizes Product Over Token

By: Zexprwire

Marbella, Malaga, 14th July 2025, Serial entrepreneur and global strategist Zak Manhire has announced Mint.io, an innovative Web3 gaming technology platform with artificial intelligence. In a field where hype cycles and speculative tokens are the coin of the realm, Mint is taking a radically alternative approach: make something real that people actually want to use, and let the product lead the way.

Zak Manhire, who has a career history in international brand-building and emerging tech companies, says he feels the Web3 space has lost sight of what real adoption really means.

Launching a token is not launching a product,” Zak Manhire says. “Real value comes from real use — and we’re creating experiences that users love before they even know that there’s crypto behind it.”

Gaming as the Easiest Onramp to Web3 

Mint.io is simple and has an emotional hook. People join to play games, not to speculate on tokens. Thanks to smart design and smooth interactions, through Seamless players build up rewards, level up, and interact with the live digital economy, without any previous blockchain knowledge required.

“We want people to stop overthinking crypto. We want them to play, to be involved and to enjoy,” Zak Manhire says. “And while they do, the token economy works unobtrusively, in the background — creating value that is real, not just marketed.”

AI as a Growth Engine, Not Just an Industry Buzzword

While traditional game studios take months to construct and iterate, Mint uses AI to shrink the length of production cycles. Narrative, art assets, and token utility mini-games of under 10 days can now be delivered.

This rapid deployment model allows Mint to support weekly releases, dynamic quests, and dynamic experiences while being tightly integrated with the reward and engagement loops in the platform.

“Every new game builds in the ecosystem – retention mechanics, reward mechanics, token burns, access rights,” Zak Manhire says. “And with AI as our engine, we’re scaling faster and smarter than anyone else in the category.”

Challenging the Web3 Status Quo

Zak Manhire is not in pursuit of viral headlines or speculative token charts. His goal with Mint has always been long-term value creation, not short-term wins. According to him, the most dangerous lie of Web3 currently is the idea that an increasing token price is a success.

“If you turn the price into the product, you’ve lost,” he cautions. “We’re not here to spin hype. We’re trying to build something sticky, sustainable, and that people actually enjoy. Something that lasts.”

With Mint.io, Zak Manhire is providing a strong contrast to the Web3 industry hype machine – the launch screaming and vapourware. It’s not promises and roadmaps, it’s playable content, real-time innovation, and utility-first mechanics — all backed up by a quiet confidence in product-led growth.

Mint.io is an AI-powered Web3 gaming platform focused on seamless user onboarding and real token utility. Founded by Zak Manhire, the platform combines rapid game development, intelligent reward mechanics, and a user-first philosophy to deliver a compelling entry point into the decentralised economy.
