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.

Vizient Reviews Same Day Discharge, Use of AI in Cardiac Care and Best Practices for Hip Fracture Care in Latest ‘Medical Device Tech Watch’

Vizient, Inc. released the latest issue of Medical Device Tech Watch, highlighting new insights for same-day discharge of cardiac patients as well as the potential for leveraging artificial intelligence to help identify patients at risk for sudden cardiac arrest. Additionally, among other articles, the report examines a service line approach for how to improve care for patients with hip fractures.

“Staying abreast of technology advancements, best practices, and updated industry guidelines for optimal patient care in orthopedics and cardiology requires a careful analysis of health care publications, clinical studies, expert insights, data, and metrics,” said Bryan Grossman, vice president, Physician Preference Items, Vizient. “This quarter, we have focused our attention on a range of surgical and operational topics and how data and technology can improve both.”

Featured articles include:

“Same day discharge recommended for an increasing number of select interventional cardiology patients:” Average length of stay for interventional cardiology patients continues to decline. Data shows that for select patients, overnight monitoring can be avoided with no increased mortality, rehospitalization or other complications. With a future that includes more same day discharge for these procedures, a shift in revenue will follow as they transition from inpatient to an ambulatory setting.

“Leveraging artificial intelligence (AI) to detect patients at risk for sudden cardiac arrest:” With more advanced electronic medical records in place and the vast amounts of data that can be generated and analyzed through artificial intelligence, AI could be incorporated into the care continuum. AI can help clinicians identify patients at risk for sudden cardiac arrest based on screening protocols that identify low ejection fractions as well as clinical symptoms such as heart failure and electrocardiogram readings.

“Applying a service line approach to improve hip fracture care:” More than 300,000 people sustain a hip fracture in the U.S. annually and that number is expected to grow. Research is clear that reducing the wait time from the emergency department to surgery leads to improved outcomes, and a service line approach can help narrow that wait time. The article outlines the four phases of a service line approach and details how to improve the hip fracture system of care from the emergency department to pre-op and surgery to post-discharge care
