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.

ASE Introduces VIPack™ to Help Transform Packaging Solution Enablement

By: via Business Wire

Advanced Semiconductor Engineering, Inc. (ASE), a member of ASE Technology Holding Co., Ltd. (NYSE: ASX, TAIEX: 3711), today introduced VIPack™, an advanced packaging platform designed to enable vertically integrated package solutions. VIPack™ represents ASE’s next generation of 3D heterogeneous integration architecture that extends design rules and achieves ultra-high density and performance. The platform leverages advanced redistribution layer (RDL) processes, embedded integration, and 2.5D and 3D technologies to help customers achieve unprecedented innovation when integrating multiple chips within a single package.

As our world navigates the data centric era, the semiconductor market is growing exponentially, with the growth behind the data coming from devices used across Artificial Intelligence (AI), Machine Learning (ML), 5G Communications, High Performance Computing (HPC), Internet-of-Things (IoT), and Automotive applications. Demand for innovative package and IC co-design, cutting-edge wafer level fabrication processes, sophisticated packaging technologies, and comprehensive product and testing solutions has never been greater. The role of packaging has become increasingly critical, as applications call for solutions to enable higher performance, greater functionality, and improved power, while meeting stringent cost parameters. The rising adoption of chiplet-based co-designs is further fueling demand for multi-chip integration into a single package. The launch of VIPack™ firmly establishes a collaborative platform for exceptional interconnect solutions where 3D heterogeneous integration has become critical.

ASE’s VIPack™ is comprised of six core packaging technology pillars supported by a comprehensive and integrated co-design ecosystem. These include ASE’s high density RDL-based Fanout Package-on Package (FOPoP), Fanout Chip-on-Substrate, (FOCoS), Fanout Chip-on-Substrate-Bridge (FOCoS-Bridge), and Fanout System-in-Package (FOSiP) as well as Through Silicon Via (TSV)-based 2.5D and 3D IC and Co-Packaged Optics processing capabilities. The VIPack™ platform provides the capabilities necessary to enable trailblazing highly integrated silicon packaging solutions required to optimize clock speed, bandwidth, and power delivery, and to reduce co-design time, product development, and time to market. “Critical new innovations such as double-sided RDL have allowed a series of new vertically integrated package technology pillars that create the backbone of our VIPack™ platform,” commented Mark Gerber, Sr. Director of Technical Marketing and Promotion at ASE.

The VIPack™ platform delivers the dense horizontal and vertical interconnect solutions required to interconnect disaggregated SoCs (System-on-Chip) and HBM (High Bandwidth Memory) used for leading-edge HPC, AI, ML, and Network applications. High-speed networking is also being challenged with several complex components for optical packaging that require VIPack™ innovation to bring these components together in a vertical structure for both space and performance enablement. Applications supported by VIPack™ further extend to the mobile market with ultra-low profile SIP modules to address the common RF iterative design process and enable a higher level of performance with integrated passives in the RDL layers. Additionally, the next generation of application processors address the demand for lower profile package solutions, while solving power delivery issues for advanced silicon nodes.

“ASE is delighted to bring its VIPack™ platform to market, opening up new opportunities for our customers to innovate from the design process all the way to production and to reap extensive benefits in relation to functionality, performance, and cost,” said Dr. C.P. Hung, Vice President of R&D, ASE. “As the world’s leading OSAT, ASE is strategically positioned to help customers improve efficiency, speed time-to-market, and sustain profitable growth. VIPack™ underscores our commitment to deliver our most innovative packaging technologies to date.”

“Our expanding digitized world is driving unparalleled innovation across the semiconductor industry and VIPack™ represents a crucial leap forward in the transformational packaging technologies required to achieve the highly complex system integration our customers need to remain competitive,” said Yin Chang, Senior Vice President of Sales and Marketing. “Through VIPack™, we’re empowering our customers to discover new efficiencies in their semiconductor design and manufacturing process and to reimagine the integration technologies required to accomplish application excellence.”

Available now, ASE’s VIPack™ is a scalable platform that will expand in alignment with industry roadmaps.
