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.

Bacula Systems Announces HPCAccelerator Feature for Enterprise HPC Backup

Unprecedented Scale and Speed for High Performance Computing Environments

YVERDON-LES-BAINS, CH / ACCESS Newswire / September 17, 2025 / Bacula Systems, the global leader in high-security, high-performance backup and recovery solutions, today announced its newest enterprise feature: HPCAccelerator, a breakthrough technology for handling massive file systems within its flagship product, Bacula Enterprise.

HPCAccelerator addresses one of the most pressing challenges in High-Performance Computing (HPC) and enterprise environments: efficiently protecting and managing data at previously unmanageable scale. This new feature empowers organizations to back up and restore billions of files at unprecedented speed, while maintaining Bacula's hallmark high security and budget predictability.

"Bacula Enterprise has always led the market in supporting the world's most demanding HPC environments. HPCAccelerator is a direct response to the increasing data growth faced by our customers, enabling them to shorten backup windows dramatically, while enjoying full cost predictability and uncompromising security," said Rick Stevens, Senior Vice President of Global Sales at Bacula Systems. "By automating what was once a manual, time-intensive process, HPCAccelerator ensures organizations can scale their infrastructure confidently and efficiently."

Key Benefits of Bacula's HPCAccelerator Technology:

  • Massive Scalability: Dynamically distributes backup workloads across multiple concurrent workers to handle billions of files with ease.

  • Speed and Efficiency: Significantly reduces backup times by splitting large workloads into smaller, parallelized processes.

  • Full Automation: Eliminates the need for system administrators to manually partition datasets.

  • Error Reduction: Automation and adaptive scalability minimize human error and optimize resource use.

  • Universal Compatibility: Works seamlessly with any file system, file server, or NAS environment, and integrates with Bacula's incremental and other advanced backup features.

  • No Capacity-Based Licensing: Unlike most competitors, Bacula never charges by data volume, giving customers complete budget predictability.

For example, a government laboratory running HPC workloads with billions of files can now use Bacula Enterprise with HPCAccelerator to protect mission-critical data faster and more reliably, without the inefficiencies of manual dataset handling or spiraling license costs.

"HPCAccelerator is another proof point of Bacula's relentless focus on delivering solutions uniquely engineered for HPC and large enterprises," said Jorge Gea, Co-CEO of Bacula Systems. "It ensures that organizations conducting critical research and high-volume operations have a backup solution capable of keeping pace with their data explosion."

Showcased at SC25
Bacula Systems will be demonstrating the new HPCAccelerator feature at SC25, the premier international conference for high-performance computing, taking place in the United States this November. Visitors will be able to see firsthand how Bacula Enterprise with HPCAccelerator redefines large-scale backup performance for the HPC community along with its other capabilities with filesystems such as GPFS and Lustre.
