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.

Castle Biosciences Presents Case Study Showcasing the Diagnostic Performance of DiffDx®-Melanoma at the College of American Pathologists 2022 (CAP22) Annual Meeting

Poster presentation given by Harold Rabinovitz, M.D., Professor of Dermatology at the Medical College of Georgia in Augusta, Georgia

Castle Biosciences, Inc. (Nasdaq: CSTL), a company improving health through innovative tests that guide patient care, today announced a recent poster presentation showcasing the performance of its diagnostic gene expression profile (GEP) test, DiffDx®-Melanoma. Castle’s diagnostic GEP tests, DiffDx®-Melanoma and MyPath® Melanoma, are designed to aid in the diagnosis of ambiguous melanocytic lesions and have been shown to provide objective, clinically actionable results in more than 98% of lesions tested. In the case study presented during the College of American Pathologists 2022 (CAP22) Annual Meeting, DiffDx-Melanoma supported the need to perform a local excision on a difficult-to-diagnose melanocytic lesion after clinicopathological correlation was not achieved by dermoscopy, reflectance confocal microscopy and/or histopathological assessment alone.

“Dermatologists have several diagnostic tools at their disposal, including dermoscopy and reflectance confocal microscopy, to evaluate the malignant potential of suspicious pigmented lesions; however, there are times when histopathologic evaluations may not agree with the malignant potential of a lesion as assessed clinically,” said Rabinovitz. “Castle’s DiffDx-Melanoma test is a highly accurate ancillary test that can provide additional diagnostic information, as shown through the case study presented, that can help clinicians determine the appropriate next steps in a patient’s overall care.”

Details of the case study are available in a poster titled “Diagnostic Differentiation between Evolving Melanoma In Situ or Unusual Clark’s Nevus with the 35-Gene Expression Profile Test.” The poster can be viewed here.

About MyPath® Melanoma and DiffDx®-Melanoma

MyPath Melanoma and DiffDx-Melanoma are Castle’s two gene expression profile tests designed to provide an accurate, objective result to aid dermatopathologists and dermatologists in characterizing difficult-to-diagnose melanocytic lesions. Of the approximately two million suspicious pigmented lesions biopsied annually in the U.S., Castle estimates that approximately 300,000 of those cannot be confidently classified as either benign or malignant through traditional histopathology methods. For these cases, the treatment plan can also be uncertain. Obtaining accurate, objective ancillary testing can mean the difference between a path of overtreatment or the risk of undertreatment. Interpreted in the context of other clinical, laboratory and histopathologic information, MyPath Melanoma and DiffDx-Melanoma are designed to reduce uncertainty and provide confidence for dermatopathologists and help dermatologists deliver more informed patient management plans.
