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.

Keysight Selected by VTT to Support Open Testing and Integration Facility in Finland

Keysight Open Radio Architect solutions support an open RAN ecosystem

Keysight Technologies, Inc. (NYSE: KEYS), a leading technology company that delivers advanced design and validation solutions to help accelerate innovation to connect and secure the world, announced that VTT Technical Research Centre of Finland Ltd. has selected Keysight Open Radio Architect (KORA) solutions to build an open testing and integration facility in support of an open radio access network (RAN) ecosystem.

An independent and impartial research center, VTT advances the utilization and commercialization of research and technology in commerce and society. VTT will use KORA solutions to create a collaborative, open and impartial working test environment that will serve a global open ecosystem of radio access network equipment vendors.

“Keysight is delighted to provide VTT with test, emulation and verification solutions that support the research institute’s goal of establishing an open test site in support of a global open RAN ecosystem,” said Giampaolo Tardioli, vice president and general manager for Keysight’s network access group. “Rigorous testing and robust integration verification procedures are critical to seamless end-to-end functionality and performance in 4G or 5G networks built on open, virtualized and disaggregated architectures.”

VTT is one of Europe’s leading research institutions and active in industry-relevant Public Private Partnerships (PPPs) including 5G and 6G research, cyber security, factory of the future and big data. Keysight’s comprehensive suite of open RAN solutions span early pre-silicon development to system integration. Keysight’s integrated software and hardware tools for emulating user equipment (UE), 5G Core (5C) and different functions of the open RAN will enable VTT to verify conformance to specifications, interoperability, performance and security from the edge of the RAN to the core of the network.

“Partnering with Keysight will enable VTT to create a unique test and integration facility recognized by the O-RAN ALLIANCE. This will advance the development of a technology built on open interfaces, while supporting strong collaboration between vendors, test labs and mobile operators,” said Sauli Eloranta, vice president, Safe and Connected Society at VTT.

Keysight offers common open RAN software platforms and built-in test automation capabilities, which helps accelerate verification of components, sub-systems and end-to-end systems across the product workflow.
