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.

Agilent Announces New Oligonucleotide Analysis Software for Biopharma Research

Agilent Technologies Inc. (NYSE: A) today announced the release of its MassHunter BioConfirm 12.0 software, which now supports data generated by Agilent high-resolution LC/MS for oligonucleotide purity analysis and sequence confirmation. MassHunter BioConfirm 12.0 will be on show at the 70th ASMS Conference on Mass Spectrometry and Allied Topics being held June 5 - 9, 2022 in Minneapolis, Minnesota.

Oligonucleotides are a class of molecules attracting increased interest as therapeutics in the biopharma industry. Oligonucleotides target gene expression through several mechanisms and offer considerable promise for addressing a wide range of diseases. However, challenges remain in developing oligonucleotide-based biotherapeutics, including finding ways to enhance their in vivo stability, more confidently and precisely target their delivery, and quickly confirm sequences.

Agilent MassHunter BioConfirm 12.0 software introduces enhancements to existing capabilities for protein analysis and adds support for oligonucleotide analysis. The addition of oligonucleotide support significantly extends the capabilities of MassHunter BioConfirm, adding critical functionality for assessing oligonucleotide purity and sequence confirmation – important analytical steps in the use of oligonucleotides for biotherapeutics and vaccine research and development.

"Customer requests for oligonucleotide analysis capabilities have been steadily increasing. With MassHunter BioConfirm 12.0, support for oligonucleotide analysis is available for the first time,” said Sudharshana Seshadri, vice president and general manager of Agilent’s Mass Spectrometry Division. “Agilent has a strong commitment to expanding its biopharma solutions, especially MS-based solutions. The addition of oligonucleotide support to MassHunter BioConfirm aligns with Agilent’s continued focus on the needs of our biopharma customers."

“I’m excited about the new oligonucleotide analysis package Agilent has developed. Identification of impurities and sequencing of oligonucleotides has previously been a slow and laborious process,” said Leo Joyce, Ph.D., senior chemist III at Arrowhead Pharmaceuticals. “The integrated BioConfirm 12.0 workflow is very easy to use and generates accurate results quickly. This software represents significant time and resource savings compared to the traditional approach.”

The new MassHunter BioConfirm 12.0 workflows allow researchers to identify full-length products and potential impurities. The innovative MS/MS-based sequence confirmation enables confirmation of oligonucleotide sequences in minutes instead of days or weeks of manual interpretation. MassHunter BioConfirm 12.0 also has the built-in flexibility for software customization to accommodate specific oligo nomenclatures and continues to provide support to ensure regulatory compliance and preservation of data integrity.
