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 First to Enable Laptop Vendors to Verify Arm-based 5G PCs Powered by Windows on Snapdragon Compute Platforms

Integrated software-centric test solutions speed design, development and manufacturing of Windows laptops with 5G connectivity powered by Snapdragon

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, is first to enable laptop vendors to verify Arm-based 5G personal computers (PCs) powered by Windows on Snapdragon® Compute Platforms with integrated software-centric test solutions.

The Snapdragon compute platform, a multi-connectivity solution developed by Qualcomm Technologies, Inc., delivers superior performance in light, fan-less and highly secure laptops with advanced camera and audio capabilities and 5G connectivity. Many Windows-based laptop vendors use the Snapdragon compute platform to deliver 5G mobile compute for cloud-enhanced experiences that increase productivity, efficiency and connectivity. Keysight enables Qualcomm Technologies to accelerate validation of PCs powered by Snapdragon across the workflow, spanning design, development and manufacturing.

“Keysight is pleased to strengthen the company’s collaboration with Qualcomm Technologies and enable the leading modem maker to address adjacent markets for its Snapdragon compute platform, resulting in seamless mobile connectivity for users of always on, always connected laptops,” said Lucas Hansen, senior director in Keysight’s Wireless Test Group. “Since 2016, Keysight and Qualcomm Technologies have jointly delivered technology-first trials in 5G that enable vendors and mobile operators to deliver essential levels of wireless connectivity for a wide range of applications.”

Keysight was first to provide vendors with a virtual instrument systems architecture (VISA) library software for efficient communication between the device under test (DUT) and the test instrument across any input/output (I/O) software layer. Qualcomm Technologies leveraged Keysight’s test solutions, equipped with the VISA software, in combination with the Qualcomm® Development Acceleration Resource Toolkit automation tool, to achieve an interoperability development test milestone for the Snapdragon compute platform.

Qualcomm Technologies uses several Keysight solutions with VISA I/O library software to validate the performance of new chipset designs across multiple technologies, including 5G new radio (NR), 4G LTE, 3G, 2G, WLAN, Bluetooth and global positioning systems (GPS). These include:
