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.

DEXIS Shares Top 4 Ways AI Will Impact Dentistry in 2024

The leader in dental imaging technology sees artificial intelligence already in place at innovative dental practices. 

QUAKERTOWN, PA / ACCESSWIRE / June 27, 2024 / Artificial intelligence is everywhere this year and is having an especially large impact on dentistry. With the first four months of 2024 complete, DEXIS, a technology leader in dental imaging, has identified four leading trends in AI and dentistry that are already having an impact on dental care.

Wouter Mollemans, Head of Software Development at DEXIS, notes, "At DEXIS, we believe technology is always in service to dental practitioners, supplementing their skills, experience, and relationship with their patients."  

"Overall, I see a growing integration of AI technologies across various aspects of dental practices, from diagnosis and treatment planning to education and research," Mollemans said. "I expect to see more specialized advancements specific to each branch or specialty within dentistry - implants, endodontics, orthodontics, restorative dentistry, and more." 

Mollemans has four predictions for dentistry AI trends in 2024:  

AI Imaging Analysis: AI algorithms analyze dental radiographs, CT scans, digital impressions, and intraoral photos. Mollemans says the results assist dentists in more efficient diagnosis, treatment planning, and oral health monitoring.  

These functions are built into the DEXIS ecosystem's imaging hub, DTX Studio™ Clinic, making it the first on-premise dental imaging system with assisted intelligence tools that can concurrently identify common dental findings on 2D radiographs. These dental findings include: caries, calculus, periapical radiolucency, root canal filling deficiency, discrepancy at margin of an existing restoration and bone loss. Moreover, DTX Studio Clinic automatically analyzes any loaded CBCT scan to set up diagnostic workspaces and trace the mandibular nerve canals. 

Predictive Analytics: AI was developed to analyze so-called "big data" to spot patterns and make recommendations.  

In dentistry, Mollemans notes, AI-powered software can analyze patients' case histories to improve dental practices' workflow efficiency - identifying the number of missed caries, performing automated image IQ checks, and more.  In the future, refinements to dental AI may be able to forecast a patient's potential to develop conditions such as gum disease and possibly help dentists begin care and treatment earlier. 

Integrated AI Workflows: Mollemans sees early-adopter dental practices already incorporating functions into hardware, like digital imaging equipment, that will allow their software to execute crucial AI-driven tasks. This should allow dentists to spend less time on straightforward steps and more time on things that really matter - for example, spending less time to load a CBCT scan affords more time for diagnosis and treatment planning. "This will be one of the key elements to discover and explore as a dentist in 2024," Mollemans said. 

DTX Studio Clinic incorporates AI tools that simplify dental practitioners' work. For example, SmartFusion™ fuses cone-beam CT scans (CBCT) with intraoral scan data, creating a 3D view of the underlying anatomy and providing deeper visibility to diagnose and treat. 

Ongoing AI investment: DEXIS has already made significant investments into developing dental-specific AI technologies, and Mollemans sees patients as the big winners in this scenario.

"Assisted intelligence in dental imaging can improve patient outcomes, streamline diagnosis through treatment, and enhance the overall delivery and predictability of dental care," Mollemans said. "But it can't just be technology for technology's sake. At DEXIS, we always think about how technology can help patients and practitioners."
