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.

Akanda Announces Arrival of First Shipment and Sales of Medical Cannabis to Germany

  • Akanda announces first export shipment to Germany of high THC indoor cultivated premium cannabis from its Portugal-based operation
  • Akanda is enabling sales of medical cannabis for patients across Germany
  • Akanda stands ready to serve legal adult-use markets in Europe once established

International medical cannabis platform company Akanda Corp. (“Akanda” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ: AKAN) expects to take a leading position in the fast-growing German medical cannabis market, as it sees its first export shipment arrive from its Portugal-based operation and announces the first sale has been achieved, solidifying the company as operationally profitable in the market. Akanda recently entered into an agreement to deliver at least 1,000 kilograms of high-grade medical cannabis flower to Germany through the Cansativa platform. The deal ranks as one of the largest supply agreements in the European medical cannabis industry. Cansativa is also the only company in Germany permitted to distribute domestically grown cannabis.

“This is an impressive milestone for Akanda’s push into the German medical cannabis market. The successful arrival of our first shipment of flower to supply patients through the Cansativa platform is an indication of the market’s demand for premium high THC medical cannabis,” commented Akanda’s CEO Tej Virk. “Our Portugal-based EU GMP-certified medical cannabis cultivation operation hosts a one-of-a-kind 20,000 square foot indoor premium cultivation site in Sintra and a 7 million square foot (180+ acres) outdoor site in Aljustrel. Akanda is dedicated to fulfilling supply agreements and delivering high THC, non-irradiated, premium quality standard medical cannabis flower to the market. Our premium medical cannabis flower has tested as high as 28% THC and the Sintra indoor facility has produced approximately 1,200kg to date.”

Germany’s health minister recently released initial guidelines for adult-use legalization in the country. “We applaud the German government’s push forward in maintaining their leadership position in Europe regarding cannabis regulation. Federal legalization could result in crucial consumer safety benefits and economic stimulus, as evidenced by the experience in Canada and at the state level in the United States. While questions remain around the final implementation, their action serves as a beacon for other European countries considering legalization, such as Portugal. We stand ready to supply these future adult-use markets with premium quality cannabis flower when laws become established,” continued Virk.

Recently, Akanda has also announced an exclusive license agreement with the iconic international cannabis lifestyle brand Cookies. The multi-year agreement enables Akanda to pursue the current medical and future adult-use opportunities in Europe with arguably one of the world's best-known cannabis brands and the highest-quality genetics. Akanda intends to initially produce EU GMP certified Cookies branded high THC medical cannabis products at its flagship indoor premium cultivation and manufacturing facility in Sintra. The company is readying to become a dominant player as one of the world's highest quality EU GMP cultivators, targeting a 10% market share in the German medical cannabis market and the future regulated adult-use market once it becomes a reality.
