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 Enables SK hynix to Speed Semiconductor Memory Technology Development

Leading memory chip maker uses Keysight’s integrated PCIe test solutions to validate Compute Express Link (CXL) technology

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, today announced that SK hynix has selected Keysight’s integrated peripheral component interconnect express (PCIe) 5.0 test platforms to speed the development of memory semiconductors used to design advanced products capable of supporting high data speeds and managing massive amounts of data.

A leading memory chip maker, SK hynix develops memory semiconductor solutions with Compute Express Link (CXL) technology to support performance and capacity requirements of next generation mobile phones, computers, data servers and on-road vehicles. Keysight’s integrated solutions for physical layer simulation, characterization and validation of PCIe 5.0 devices enable SK hynix to speed test and development of next generation dynamic random-access memory (DRAM) and PCIe devices with CXL high-speed memory interconnect technology.

“Keysight is pleased to deliver SK hynix PCIe 5.0 test solutions that validate the performance of high-capacity and power-efficient memory storage devices used in edge and cloud computing, data centers, 5G devices and radio access network equipment,” said Joachim Peerlings, vice president of network and data center solutions at Keysight. “Keysight’s PCIe test platforms enable SK hynix to validate the performance of bandwidth memory expansion modules deployed in many fourth industrial revolution applications.”

Keysight is driving consistency in test results through its contributions in PCI SIG, a consortium responsible for specifying PCI standards. Consistency in test standards enables vendors to confidently launch new PCIe 5.0 technology designs that interoperate as expected with other vendors' products.

SK hynix Inc., headquartered in Korea, is a top-tier semiconductor supplier offering dynamic random access memory chips (DRAM), flash memory chips (NAND Flash) and CMOS image sensors (CIS) for a wide range of distinguished customers globally. Hyung-Soo Kim, Head of DRAM AE at SK hynix, stated “SK hynix greatly values Keysight’s expertise, especially the company’s PCIe 5.0 test solutions. Keysight’s oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, bit error ratio testers and PCIe transceiver (TRX) test solutions enable SK hynix to advance development of memory semiconductors based on both DRAM and NAND technologies.”

Keysight integrates hardware and software platforms to create solutions that let SK hynix perform both receiver and transmitting testing. These include:

  • Infiniium UXR-Series real-time oscilloscope for visually representing variations of voltage signals as waveforms (UXR0504A)
  • High-performance 64 Gbaud bit error ratio tester (BERT) for receiver testing (M8040A)
  • PCI Express 5 card electro-mechanical (CEM) receiver test automation software for testing, debugging and characterizing PCIe 5.0 CEM add-in cards and systems (N5991PC5A)
  • PCIe 5.0 transmitter electrical performance validation and compliance software (D9050PCIC)
