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.

Hospital Executives Support Post-COVID Flexibility, Clear Framework for Telehealth During Vizient-hosted Congressional Briefing

By: via Business Wire

Vizient, Inc. hosted a virtual congressional briefing on Wednesday, June 9, titled, “Telehealth, Not Just a Pandemic Back-up Plan.” Panelists discussed how hospitals provide telehealth services, lessons learned regarding the increased utilization of telehealth and what is needed to continue to support providers and patients beyond the pandemic.

“As the data shows, virtual health services are something that hospitals are clearly committed to investing in post-COVID,” said Saloni Jain, vice president, analytics and informatics at Vizient and moderator of the panel. “Over the past 18 months the conversation amongst providers has shifted from whether telehealth should be a service offered, to overcoming barriers in the implementation of such services across a wide range of hospitals with varying levels of technologically focused infrastructure in place.”

The discussion focused on hospital systems centered in both rural and urban communities, though the issues shared included common themes:

  • Increased access to broadband - Regardless of location, access to reliable and affordable internet is pivotal to ensuring patients are able to access care in an efficient manner.
  • Revised legislative and regulatory framework – As hospitals transition from the COVID-19 Public Health Emergency, there is a need to maintain several of the flexibilities that have been provided in laws, regulations and licensure requirements.
  • Appropriate reimbursement and payment parity –Post-COVID there needs to be an understanding of what services and procedures will be eligible for CMS reimbursement. For a sustainable model to be put into place, there needs to be clear and equitable reimbursement.
  • Focus on increasing patient connection and trust – To have a quality, digital relationship, patients must have trust. As hospitals transition towards a more high-tech approach, they should not lose sight of high touch techniques that continue to build relationships with patients and their caregivers.

The panel featured:

  • Russ Gronewold, MBA, President & CEO at Bryan Health
  • Dr. Kenneth Holmen, President & CEO at CentraCare
  • Catherine Krna, MBA, Vice President and Associate Dean of Ambulatory Care at Stanford Health Care
  • Saloni Jain, Vice President Analytics and Informatics at Vizient
  • Shoshana Krilow, Senior Vice President, Public Policy and Government Relations at Vizient
