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.

Vizient Medical Device Tech Watch Highlights Trends in AI, Treatment Options for Pulmonary Embolism and Strategies to Boost Clinical Workforce Retention

Vizient, Inc. today released its latest Medical Device Tech Watch, identifying trends in artificial intelligence (AI), examining treatment options for pulmonary embolism and highlighting strategies to boost clinical workforce retention. The full Medical Device Tech Watch can be accessed here.

“Advances in technology are having a positive impact not only on patient care but also on physicians and clinical staff support,” said Debbie Schuhardt, senior principal. “Through Tech Watch, Vizient provides clinical updates and operational strategies that help healthcare providers optimize care delivery and operational efficiencies, and lower costs.”

This edition contains eight articles, including:

Prioritizing employee needs positions health systems for top talent retention and recruitment — A recent Vizient survey of leaders representing 92 health systems nationwide revealed that workforce retention was their most pressing challenge, with recruitment and burnout closely behind. Research shows the average cost of turnover is $88,000 per nurse, $250,000 per advanced practice provider, and up to $1.5 million per physician. To help healthcare organizations, Tech Watch identifies new AI technologies that have the potential to lessen clinician turnover.

How current and future artificial intelligence applications are poised to transform medicine — AI adoption across healthcare is still in its infancy, but it’s beginning to make significant contributions in areas such as medical image interpretation, clinical decision support and administrative tasks. Tech Watch breaks down the differences between AI, and its subsets machine learning and deep learning, examines factors fueling AI growth in healthcare and highlights how services such as radiology and pathology are successfully implementing the new technology.

Collaboration and technology advances are improving pulmonary embolism treatment and outcomes — While the pandemic continues to fluctuate, the risk of pulmonary embolism (PE) associated with COVID-19 infection remains. A pulmonary embolism response team (PERT) can enable rapid clinical coordination of care and improved outcomes in PE patients. As therapies, technologies and devices evolve and appear on the market, patient triage, treatment and management will become increasingly critical and complex. This article assesses established and new acute pulmonary embolism treatment options, their clinical and financial implications, and further elevates and supports the need for PERT teams to determine patient and device selection.
