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.

Bruker Announces Acquisition of ACQUIFER Imaging GmbH

Adding Big-Data Management and High-Content Screening Solutions for Bioimaging Applications

Bruker Corporation (Nasdaq: BRKR) today announced the acquisition of ACQUIFER Imaging GmbH, a pioneer in big-data management solutions for bioimaging and high-content microscopy. This acquisition adds high-performance on-premise processing, secure storage and networking technology that complements Bruker’s advanced fluorescence microscopy imaging products, such as light-sheet and super-resolution microscopy products, which generate high information content.

ACQUIFER's flagship HIVE™ data management systems feature a fast backbone for very high data collection speed and multicore, multi-GPU processing, as well as scalable plug-and-play storage modules up to the petabyte (PB) range. The acquisition also includes the innovative IM04 Imaging Instrument, a robust, automated high-content imaging system for reproducible phenotypic screening of cells, whole organisms, and organoids. Financial details of the transaction were not disclosed.

“Cutting-edge bioresearch often requires high-performance big-data management, which HIVE can offer,” said Dr. Peter Zehetmayer, COO and Director for Sales & Marketing at ACQUIFER. “In addition, our IM04 system expands Bruker’s fluorescence microscopy portfolio into the high-content screening arena. As part of Bruker, we anticipate the ability to greatly expand the reach of our scientific computing and imaging technologies worldwide.”

“The ACQUIFER HIVE system was developed to keep up with the ever-increasing amount of data that life science research can generate. In combination with Bruker’s fluorescence microscopy platforms, including our light-sheet microscopy instrumentation, we can now offer a holistic solution for advanced imaging and big-data management,” added Dr. Malte Wachsmuth, Managing Director and Head of Applications, Support & Service for Bruker’s Luxendo Light Sheet Microscopy Business. “We also are very excited about augmenting our support for organoid, stem cell, and developmental biology research with the IM04 high-content screening system.”

About ACQUIFER Imaging GmbH

Founded in 2012 and based in Heidelberg, Germany, ACQUIFER is a private company, made up of two legal entities: Acquifer Imaging GmbH and Deltabyte GmbH. Its flagship product, HIVE, is a high-end centralized workstation for image processing, high-performance computing, deep learning, and big-data storage. It features powerful computational resources (multi-core CPU, large RAM, one or more GPUs) with large and secure data-storage (RAID) that is optimal for demanding applications and multi-user settings. Data is always available from any laptop/PC in-house or remotely via VPN-secured remote-desktop connection. The IM04 Imaging Instrument is a fully automated widefield microscope for brightfield and fluorescence imaging of various small model organisms. Ideal for cell-based high-content screening assays or phenotypic screening, its static sample holder, combined with a mobile optical unit, prevents any perturbation while imaging motion-sensitive samples.
