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.

For Pediatric Patient Population, Vizient Forecasts Growth in Obesity Services, Highlights Risk Factors for Asthma and Examines New RSV Vaccines

In the latest edition of Pediatric Tech Watch, Vizient, Inc. forecasts strong growth in pediatric obesity services, highlights risk factors for children with asthma through the patent pending Vizient Vulnerability Index™ and examines new ways to prevent pediatric respiratory syncytial virus (RSV). View the latest Pediatric Tech Watch.

“The unique qualities of the pediatric population require specialized strategies and solutions,” said Sarah Herrmann, director, program services, Vizient. “It is imperative that providers are made aware of newly approved pharmaceuticals as they come to market and act on new guidelines as they are published. This edition of Pediatric Tech Watch examines some of the most pressing issues for this vulnerable patient population.”

Featured articles include:

New guidelines and medications alter pediatric obesity treatment — The effects of the childhood obesity epidemic continue to increase, impacting healthcare services used across multiple pediatric subspecialties. Sg2, a Vizient company, forecasts more than 420,000 additional outpatient services (22% growth) for pediatric patients diagnosed with obesity by 2033. New clinical practice guidelines from the American Academy of Pediatrics will affect the way organizations deliver care as will new pharmaceuticals coming to market.

How big data illuminates social drivers, environmental impacts and pediatric health — Research shows an association between childhood poverty and elevated exposure to a broad range of health-damaging conditions, including those related to environmental pollution. The Vizient Vulnerability Index™ demonstrates that in neighborhoods with the most extreme pollution, the effect of increasing economic vulnerability is multiplied. As both economic vulnerability and environmental hazards increase, so does the risk of pediatric asthma – but even more so when both factors are present.

New strategies for the prevention of respiratory syncytial virus in pediatric patients Each year in the U.S., RSV is associated with up to 80,000 hospitalizations and an average of 200 deaths in children younger than 5 years. For the pediatric population, two new strategies for the prevention of RSV in infants and children have emerged — maternal vaccination and a new monoclonal antibody for infants and children. This article surveys the most recently approved methods for RSV prevention and accompanying recommendations for this at-risk patient group.
