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.

Nexa3D and Obsidian Solutions Group Partner to Bring Production 3D Printing to Military and Defense Customers

By: via Business Wire
  • Obsidian Solutions Group, through its manufacturing division Applied Rapid Technologies, has acquired five of Nexa3D’s NXE 400 3D printers and one NXD 200 3D printer
  • The 3D printers are satisfying customer requirements for short-run production plastics
  • The partnership allows Obsidian Solutions Group to free up capacity in its cast urethane business by diverting projects directly to the Nexa3D printers

Obsidian Solutions Group, LLC (OSG) today announced that it has entered into a Distribution Agreement with Nexa3D to represent its NXE 400 and NXD 200 photoplastic 3D printers.

This press release features multimedia. View the full release here: https://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20220126005634/en/

OSG is a certified 8(a), Service-Disabled, Veteran-Owned Business focused on providing solutions to the DoD and Intelligence Community. Through its manufacturing division, Applied Rapid Technologies (ART), OSG will work with government agencies and commercial/industrial businesses to provide additive manufacturing (AM) solutions based on Nexa3D’s ultrafast production-oriented resin 3D printing technology.

ART has been operating three NXE 400 industrial 3D printers since April 2021, leveraging these machines to satisfy customer requirements for short-run production plastics. In January 2022, ART installed two more NXE 400s and one NXD 200.

“The Nexa3D equipment is freeing up capacity in our cast urethane business by allowing us to divert projects directly to the Nexa3D printers,” said Bruce LeMaster, VP of Manufacturing, ART. “The throughput on these printers is amazing. Prior to Christmas, we had a project that required 1,200 parts for delivery before the holidays. We printed 300 parts at a time, with each build taking only 28 minutes. The project was a big success.”

In addition to in-house usage, ART has signed on to join the Nexa3D reseller network. The company will offer 3D printing systems from the Nexa3D portfolio to expand its own customers’ capacity for advanced manufacturing.

OSG Co-Founder and President James Wiley stated, “We are very excited about this venture. The partnership between OSG and Nexa3D will allow us to continue providing mission critical, right-time, right-place, and right level of responsive services and solutions to counter and thwart the efforts of global adversaries.”

OSG Co-Founder and CEO Tyron Logan added that “‘Solutions’ is a big part of the OSG name, and we look forward to offering Nexa3D equipment to our customers as a possible answer to their needs.”

Nexa3D printers are known for their ultrafast print speeds based on the company’s proprietary Lubricant Sublayer Photo-curing (LSPc) technology. The NXE 400 also features a 16 liter build volume, more than double that of other currently available technologies.

Nexa3D is pleased to partner with OSG and offer its solutions to the DoD and Intelligence community.

“Nexa3D believes in the ability of technology to make a powerful difference in the world,” said Avi Reichental, Co-Founder, Chairman, and CEO of Nexa3D. “Our 3D printers have been proven to reduce production time from days to hours or minutes. In sectors where time is especially critical, the value of ultrafast 3D printing cannot be overstated.”

Reichental continued, “Another primary focus for Nexa3D is improving the sustainability of manufacturing, and replacing urethane casting with 3D printing has immense benefits for our environment. We are proud to lend our technology to OSG’s important mission and to continue our own mission of advancing additive manufacturing’s capabilities.”

Nexa3D printers are built to last, with modular designs that allow for easy part replacement and technology upgrades, eliminating hardware obsolescence, reducing waste, and saving money.
