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 Thought Leader Award to Gerhardt Attard at University College London (UCL)

Award recognizes transformative prostate cancer clinical research using novel liquid biopsy technologies

Agilent Technologies Inc. (NYSE: A) today announced that Professor Gerhardt Attard has been selected to receive a prestigious Agilent Thought Leader Award. Prof Attard is a John Black Charitable Foundation Endowed Chair in Urological Cancer Research at University College London (UCL). Professor Attard is prominent for his innovative research and clinical trials using cutting-edge liquid biopsy technologies to identify biomarkers to monitor drug response and cancer progression in patients with advanced prostate cancer. The technique is non-invasive and, therefore, ideal for tracking tumor response to therapy and the evolution of cancer mutation.

Professor Attard is an influential oncology clinician-scientist whose work has enabled the application of modern genomics clinical solutions, such as liquid biopsy, to create the next generation of diagnostics and prognostic tools in the fight against cancer. Professor Attard’s research supported by this award will generate important data using relevant samples from clinical trials to identify and test changes in the circulating tumor DNA methylome that could be used as biomarkers for cancer progression and resistance to available therapies.

“The Agilent Thought Leader Award will support my group’s work interrogating tumor epigenetic information in plasma DNA. As translational researchers, one of our key remits is to transition new discoveries into clinically-implemented tests,” said Professor Attard. “I am thrilled to receive this award. It is a great honor and important opportunity for my team and our collaborators to work with some of the industry leaders in the diagnostics field.”

“My group primarily studies blood collected from men with advanced prostate cancer, but I expect our findings to have relevance to and support new tests for other cancer types,” Professor Attard added. “I am confident that this partnership will accelerate our delivery of diagnostics that will provide cancer physicians more precise information to tailor treatment paradigms and improve patient outcomes.”

“Agilent continues to invest in research on the important segment markets we serve,” said Ronda Allen, head of R&D, Assays and Reagents, Diagnostics and Genomics Group at Agilent and executive sponsor of the award. “The important work conducted through this award will support scientific developments in the cancer genomics space and we believe Professor Attard will be a brilliant asset in that endeavor.”

“Philanthropic gifts like the Agilent Thought Leader Award are crucial to enabling UCL’s world-leading scientists to make life-saving discoveries, that could alter the clinical landscape for advanced prostate cancer patients and those with other cancers,” said Angharad Milenkovic, vice-president of Advancement at UCL. “We’re grateful to our philanthropic partners at Agilent, who share our vision for improving cancer diagnosis and treatment, and for their generous funding of Professor Attard’s research.”

Professor Attard holds an advanced Cancer Research UK Clinician Scientist award and is Team Leader of the Treatment Resistance Group at the UCL Cancer Institute.

The Agilent Thought Leader Award program promotes fundamental scientific advances by contributing financial support, products, and expertise to the research of influential thought leaders in the life sciences, diagnostics, and chemical analysis space.
