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 Launches a High Reliability Organization Solution for Sustained Delivery of Safe Health Care

Vizient, Inc. today announced a strategic agreement with Safe & Reliable Healthcare to offer an integrated solution designed to partner with Vizient members on their journey to become high reliability organizations. Vizient’s High Reliability Organization solution includes expertise grounded in high-reliability principles, management systems, technology, and analytics. The partnership elevates the analytical capabilities of both companies with the integration of Vizient’s robust clinical data with Safe & Reliable’s culture of safety and employee engagement data. This integration provides new insights into how culture and engagement impacts outcomes.

Organizations that experience success in avoiding harm within an environment of high complexity and risk are known as high reliability organizations. These organizations effectively transform cultures, implement systems and empower their workforce so events that could result in patient harm such as a fall or a wrong site surgery are always anticipated as possibilities. As the workforce becomes more mindful of risks and systems become more reliable, clinical outcomes improve and incidents of harm are reduced as well as the experience of patients and families improves. Gaining reliability in outcomes and managing risks also increases an organization’s ability to effectively perform in value-based payment models.

“This solution will benefit health care organizations at any point on the high reliability journey, from those just beginning to those who want to accelerate their progress,” said Gena Futral, executive principal, Vizient. “We will partner with organizations to develop the leaders, systems, technology, and analytics required to transform cultures so health care organizations cannot only achieve but sustain performance excellence.”

Through the Vizient and Safe & Reliable collaboration, the High Reliability Organization solution will:

  • Develop leaders who are confident and competent to lead based on high-reliability principles and who prioritize cultures of safety
  • Implement management systems with the supporting technology to create learning cultures that promote continuous improvement and sustainability
  • Develop new analytical insights by integrating culture and engagement data with quality and safety data to identify new improvement and sustainability drivers
  • Provide robust data visualization and communication boards to support real-time decision-making and resource allocations
  • Empower and engage the entire workforce to be problem-solvers but more importantly, increase engagement and job satisfaction

“For many health care organizations, transforming to high reliability organizations has been a priority and then COVID-19 elevated the imperative by illuminating the fragility of the workforce and systems,” Futral said.

“This solution is critical for any health care organization that strives to strengthen their resilience and reliability so the daily challenges of operating in such complex environments are managed and they are better prepared for the next crisis,” said Allan Frankel, CEO, Safe &Reliable Healthcare.
