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.

Cadence and Autodesk Collaborate on Smart Product Design

Highlights

  • Partnership provides automated design synchronization between Autodesk Fusion and Cadence’s generative AI-powered Allegro X and OrCAD X platforms
  • Leverages Cadence’s new X AI capability that significantly improves PCB design productivity
  • Solutions include Cadence’s industry-leading multiphysics analysis

 

Cadence Design Systems, Inc. (Nasdaq: CDNS) today announced a collaboration with Autodesk to provide solutions that accelerate intelligent system design leveraging Autodesk Fusion and Cadence® PCB solutions. This new integration offers customers seamless collaboration between electronic and mechanical engineering to accelerate the development of smart products through efficient co-design.

Electrical and mechanical engineers face increased pressure to produce products with fewer revisions, making efficient collaboration key to delivering smart products to market on time. Current manual design data methods require users to exchange files that can differ from design intent, resulting in errors, unnecessary re-work and costly delays.

To address these challenges, the companies have integrated Autodesk Fusion with Cadence’s Allegro® X and OrCAD® X platforms into a solution that enables seamless bi-directional communication between PCB designers and mechanical engineers. The platform integration enables companies to take full advantage of cloud-based mechanical design and generative AI/ML PCB design, while fully leveraging multiphysics analysis for power, thermal, electromagnetics and more.

“The electronics industry is being disrupted on multiple fronts including supply chain challenges and rapidly accelerating product complexity,” said Tom Beckley, senior vice president, Cadence. “Our partnership with Autodesk provides access to leading-edge technology for electronic design integrated with Autodesk’s leading cloud-enabled, connected mechanical CAD solutions.”

“Our partnership with Cadence powers a seamless collaboration between mechanical and electronics design, putting customers at the center,” said Jeff Kinder, executive vice president, Autodesk. “Manufacturers need to bring more complex products to the market faster – all while juggling distributed teams, supply chain disruptions, and costs. This integration further extends Autodesk’s vision to connect end-to-end design and make processes in manufacturing.”

The AI-based Allegro X and OrCAD X platforms support Cadence’s Intelligent System Design strategy, which enables customers to accelerate system innovation. Customers can learn more about the joint Autodesk and Cadence solution by visiting http://www.cadence.com/go/AutodeskCadence.
