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.

Fortanix Unlocks the Power of Confidential Computing

Financial Services and Healthcare Industry Innovators Using Fortanix Technology to Deliver Real-World Applications

Fortanix® Inc., the data-first multicloud security company, today announced that its technology is powering new breakthrough applications of confidential computing. Confidential computing protects applications and the sensitive data they process from unauthorized access and tampering at runtime, extending the security already in place for data at-rest and in-motion across the network. Fortanix was the first company to deliver enterprise applications of confidential computing built on Intel SGX® and today is the leader in enabling real-world uses of this technology. The release of Ice Lake 3rd Gen Intel® Xeon® Scalable processors makes further, large-scale commercial applications of confidential computing possible.

Consilient: A More Effective, More Efficient Approach to Anti-Money Laundering and Countering the Financing of Terrorism

Trillions of dollars in illicit transactions move through the global financial system every year, less than 1% of which is intercepted by authorities. Consilient brings together next-generation technology and best-in-class anti-money laundering and countering the financing of terrorism (AML/CFT) expertise to power a more secure, dynamic and effective solution for financial institutions.

Initial trials of Consilient’s Federated Machine Learning technology show massive improvements in efficiency and effectiveness over existing systems. “Machine learning models perform best when trained on the best data. However, an inability to share data hinders the financial services industry’s ability to make progress on improving the effectiveness of AML/CFT systems,” said Gary M. Shiffman, co-founder and CEO of Consilient and founder and CEO of Giant Oak. “Consilient’s Dozer™ technology solves this challenge to collaboration by sharing algorithms and protecting data. Dozer pioneered Federated Machine Learning in the AML/CFT space. Fortanix enables Dozer to move between banks and other financial institutions securely, protecting sensitive data and models.”

Consilient is using Fortanix Confidential Computing Manager and servers enabled with Intel SGX technology.

UC San Francisco’s Center for Digital Health Innovation (CDHI): Advancing AI for Healthcare

Artificial Intelligence promises to fundamentally change healthcare, providing new tools to diagnose and guide treatment. UC San Francisco’s Center for Digital Health Innovation (CDHI), in partnership with Fortanix, Intel, and Microsoft, has developed BeeKeeperAI, a secure platform that is now being used for machine learning against patient medical records.

“BeeKeeperAI has successfully validated the Massive Transfusion Algorithm on the Fortanix confidential computing platform utilizing SGX in the Azure cloud environment,” said Michael Blum, MD, associate vice chancellor for informatics, executive director of CDHI, and professor of medicine, UCSF. “With Ice Lake, the BeeKeeperAI platform will be able to handle larger and more complex data sets for validating clinical-grade AI algorithms. In the weeks ahead we will be employing Ice Lake as we deploy our first customer’s algorithm against two distinct health system data sets, including data from UCSF.”

UCSF and Fortanix will host the webinar “Zero Trust: Accelerating the Development of Healthcare AI” on April 29, 2021 to present this solution.

New Healthcare Case Study: “Intel Collaborates with Leidos and Fortanix to Accelerate Clinical Trials”

Fortanix is helping to streamline the clinical drug trial process as described by Intel in their case study “Intel Collaborates with Leidos and Fortanix to Accelerate Clinical Trials”, published April 6, 2021 in support of the announcement of Ice Lake. In this solution, Fortanix orchestrates applications running in secure enclaves enabled by Intel SGX as well as encrypts and tokenizes sensitive data. Data remains protected at all times – at-rest, in-motion, and in-use. The complete case study is available in the Intel Newsroom.

Fortanix Confidential Computing Manager

These examples and others use the combination of Fortanix Confidential Computing Manager software and servers enabled with Intel Software Guard Extensions (SGX). Fortanix Confidential Computing Manager enables “lift-and-shift” for applications to run inside Intel SGX enclaves without requiring any modification and provides complete enclave lifecycle management from creation to migration to termination. The release of new Intel Ice Lake processors will now enable larger scale applications that leverage larger data sets.

“Fortanix was founded to solve cloud security and privacy and we had to pioneer a new type of security technology, Confidential Computing, to deliver on our vision. It’s exciting to see real-life breakthrough projects that make this a reality,” said Ambuj Kumar, Co-founder and CEO at Fortanix. “Even more exciting is that with continued innovation from Fortanix, Intel, and partners, this is only the beginning.”
