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.

Avinger Announces Conversion of 12% of CRG Term Debt into Equity

REDWOOD CITY, CA / ACCESSWIRE / August 4, 2023 / Avinger, Inc. (Nasdaq:AVGR), a commercial-stage medical device company developing and marketing the first and only intravascular image-guided, catheter-based systems for diagnosis and treatment of vascular disease, today announced the conversion of approximately 12% of its existing debt with entities affiliated with CRG Partners III L.P. ("CRG") into shares of a new series of convertible preferred stock.

The conversion reduces the outstanding principal amount of the debt by $1.92 million, or approximately 12%, in exchange for 1,920 shares of Avinger Series E convertible preferred stock. The December 31, 2025 maturity date of the term loan and other covenants remain unchanged. Following this transaction, the shares of Series E preferred stock held by CRG are convertible into an aggregate of 2,684,160 shares of common stock, representing approximately 19.9% of Avinger's common stock on a post-conversion to common stock basis. Each share of Series E preferred stock is initially convertible into 1,398 shares of Avinger's common stock, based on a conversion price of $0.715, which is equal to the closing price of the common stock on August 2, 2023.

"We appreciate CRG's continued support of Avinger as we commercialize our best-in-class products for the treatment of peripheral artery disease and advance development of our new coronary artery disease platform," said Jeff Soinski, Avinger's President and CEO. "Converting a significant portion of the term loan to equity strengthens our balance sheet as we continue to execute on several exciting growth and development initiatives for our intravascular image guided solutions."
