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.

QNX OS for Safety Integrated in NVIDIA DRIVE AGX Thor Development Kit at General Availability

Developers can Tap QNX OS for Safety 8 with DRIVE AGX Thor to Accelerate Innovation from Prototype to Production

WATERLOO, ONTARIO / ACCESS Newswire / August 27, 2025 / QNX, a division of BlackBerry Limited (NYSE: BB)(TSX:BB) today announced its role as a key ecosystem and integration partner in the general availability of the new NVIDIA DRIVE AGX Thor development kit, a next-generation platform engineered to power the future of autonomous vehicles. Integrated with QNX® OS for Safety 8 and featuring leading-edge AI performance, safety features, and scalability, NVIDIA DRIVE AGX Thor enables developers to accelerate the design, testing, and deployment of next-generation autonomous driving systems - from early-stage research to commercial production.

At its core is the NVIDIA AGX Thor SoC, delivering up to 2,000 FP4 performance for generative AI and 1,000 INT8 TFLOPS . Running on this hardware is NVIDIA DriveOS, a key NVIDIA Halos element designed for automotive grade functional safety. The NVIDIA DRIVE platform, built on the comprehensive Halos safety system, provides a foundational approach that allows developers to build the next generation of safe autonomous vehicles with diverse software stacks, sensors, and redundant computers.

As part of the DriveOS stack, developers can leverage QNX® OS for Safety, a real-time operating system pre-certified to ISO 26262 ASIL-D and ISO 21434, the automotive industry's highest functional safety and security standards. This integration provides a trusted path for building intelligent, secure, and certifiable systems - essential for autonomous mobility.

"As vehicles become more software-defined, developers are under pressure to deliver increasingly complex systems that still meet strict safety and security standards," said John Wall, COO and Head of Product, Engineering and Services at QNX. "The NVIDIA DRIVE AGX Thor Development Kit, integrated with our newly released QNX OS for Safety 8, helps address that challenge by offering an industry-proven, ready-to-use platform that simplifies development and helps accelerate certification, without compromising performance."

QNX is trusted as the foundation for a software-driven future by most leading OEMs and Tier 1s worldwide, including BMW, Bosch, Continental, Dongfeng Motor, Geely, Honda, Mercedes-Benz, Toyota, Volkswagen, Volvo, and more. Its foundational software supports future-proof engineering design, from digital cockpits and advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) to zonal and domain controllers, enabling automakers to bring innovation to market faster and at lower cost.
