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.

Stryker Launches New Tendon Fixation Device System

By: via Business Wire

Citrelock™ Differentiated Design Features Citregen™, A Bioresorbable Material

Stryker’s Trauma & Extremities division has launched its Citrelock™ Tendon Fixation Device System. The new system provides surgeons a differentiated design via a tendon thread featuring a resorbable technology, known as Citregen™, that has unique chemical and mechanical properties for orthopaedic surgical applications. Stryker will debut Citrelock at the American Orthopaedic Foot & Ankle Society (AOFAS) Annual Meeting, Sept. 22-25, 2021, in Charlotte, N.C.

“Our customers are looking for a more predictable and effective bioresorbable material than what is currently on the market,” said Michael Rankin, VP Marketing and Medical Education, Stryker Foot & Ankle. “The Citrelock Tendon Fixation Device System helps fill that need with its innovative material technology and unique design. Citregen is an exciting addition to Stryker’s existing biomaterial portfolio and will be expanded for use in additional Stryker Trauma & Extremities indications in the future.”

The Citrelock Tendon Fixation Device System offers surgeons:

  • A controlled and homogeneous resorption process that prevents bulk degradation and chronic inflammation.1
  • Compressive strength that is comparable to cortical bone with a modulus comparable to cancellous bone.1,2
  • Citregen contains citrate, calcium, and phosphate molecules that are inherent to the bone anatomy.1
  • Material polymer structure that mimics the extracellular matrix protein network.1
  • Citregen maintains structural integrity during the healing phase, while the implant is replaced by host tissue over time.1

“By leveraging Citregen’s unique material properties, the Citrelock Tendon Fixation Device System introduces design features to ease insertion and secure fixation without damaging the tendon during placement,” said Wayne Berberian, MD, orthopaedic surgeon at HMH Hackensack University Medical Center. “It has been exciting to observe the development of a biomaterial for use in orthopaedic applications. I’m excited to start using Citrelock in my practice.”

Citrelock will be featured during one of Stryker’s industry sessions at AOFAS on September 24. The company is also hosting a new product reception highlighting the benefits of Citrelock along with other recent additions to its Foot & Ankle portfolio.
