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.

Insulet Issued Voluntary Medical Device Correction for Omnipod DASH® Personal Diabetes Manager on October 17, 2022

Insulet Corporation (NASDAQ: PODD) (Insulet or the Company), announced on October 17, 2022, a Medical Device Correction for all Omnipod DASH® Personal Diabetes Managers (PDMs) distributed globally. This action was taken voluntarily with the knowledge of the FDA and other regulatory agencies.

Insulet received reports from Omnipod DASH users regarding PDM battery issues, including battery swelling and leakage, and in rare cases, extreme overheating, which has resulted in reports of fire. The Company’s investigation determined that the Omnipod DASH PDM is at increased risk of malfunction if overcharged beyond the maximum battery voltage, which could potentially lead to serious injury or death.

There have been 50 complaints about this issue. No serious injuries or deaths have been reported as a result of this potential issue.

As previously communicated to Omnipod DASH users, Insulet has identified an update to the Omnipod DASH PDM that will resolve this issue. The Company expects to begin shipping updated Omnipod DASH PDMs to all current Omnipod DASH customers in the coming months.

“Safety is our top priority, and we have been urgently addressing this issue,” said Michael Spears Senior Vice President, Regulatory Affairs & Compliance. “We are committed to helping our customers navigate the replacement process and address any concerns they have. We are confident that a software update will resolve this issue.”

All affected Omnipod DASH consumers are being notified by email and local mail. Insulet has been providing customers with instructions to help reduce the risk of PDM battery issues. Users who experience any issues with their battery should contact Insulet’s dedicated Customer Care team at 1-800-641-2049, which is available in the U.S. 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Country-specific Customer Care phone numbers are available on www.omnipod.com.

This Medical Device Correction does not affect Omnipod DASH Pods, the Omnipod® Insulin Management System, or the Omnipod® 5 Automated Insulin Delivery System. Additional information, including instructions to customers to mitigate risk, can be found on the Company’s website at www.omnipod.com/insulet-alerts.
