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.

Lightwave Logic, Inc. Announces Perkinamine(TM) Polymer Reliability Breakthrough - Passes Telcordia 85/85 Test & Develops Enhanced Moisture & Oxygen Resistance via Fourth-Generation Encapsulation Technology

ENGLEWOOD, COLORADO / ACCESS Newswire / July 15, 2025 / Lightwave Logic, Inc. (NASDAQ: LWLG) (the "Company"), a leading provider of high-performance electro-optic (EO) polymer materials, today announced that its latest-generation Perkinamine™ polymer has successfully passed the rigorous Telcordia GR-468 85/85 environmental stress test (85 °C at 85 % relative humidity), validating its long-term reliability under harsh environmental conditions. The results confirm that Lightwave Logic's EO polymer materials can maintain performance over time, meeting key industry requirements for deployment in telecom and datacom infrastructure.

Expanded 85/85 Test Results:

  • Sample selection: Thin-film devices with second-generation proprietary encapsulation barrier

  • Stress conditions: 85 °C and 85 % relative humidity for 1,000 hours

  • Performance: Change in absorbance measurements showed only 1.6% average loss after 1,000 hours

  • Pass rate: More than 11 samples exceeded Telcordia GR-468 requirements by a wide margin

These results highlight robust protection against moisture and oxygen, enabled by Lightwave Logic's proprietary encapsulation technology.

In addition, the company's process development team has achieved a significant breakthrough with its fourth-generation atomic layer deposition (ALD) encapsulation material, recently demonstrating an oxygen transmission rate (OTR) of 1.4 × 10⁻⁶ g/m²/day-approaching the measurement limit of state-of-the-art OTR instrumentation. This performance far exceeds the "gold-box" standard of 7 × 10⁻⁶ g/m²/day for lifetime reliability.

Lightwave Logic is preparing this fourth-generation encapsulation material for its next-release back-end-of-line (BEOL) Process Design Kit (PDK) for integration into silicon photonics foundries.

"Achieving full Telcordia 85/85 certification and improving barrier performance by two orders of magnitude are watershed achievements for our platform," said Yves LeMaitre, CEO of Lightwave Logic. "Similar to the trajectory of Organic LEDs, electro-optic polymers are demonstrating that they now meet the reliability requirements for deployment in real-world applications-including AI factory scale-out and hyperscalers front-end networking."

This milestone builds upon Lightwave Logic's prior achievements, including industry-leading EO polymer performance and strategic partnerships with foundries for scalable device manufacturing, and is a critical component of Stage 1 and 2 design win process with companies actively engaged in the Company's commercial pipeline.
