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.

Medical Device Information Analysis and Sharing Initiative Welcomes Atrium Health

Voluntary Collaboration Between Food and Drug Administration and Private Sector Analyzes Medical Device Data to Drive Better Health Care Outcomes

MITRE, the independent trusted third party for the Medical Device Information Analysis and Sharing (MDIAS) Public Private Partnership (PPP), today announced the addition of Atrium Health. The Charlotte-based health system is joining the voluntary MDIAS collaboration between the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and stakeholders across the private sector—including patients, hospital providers, and medical device manufacturers—to proactively analyze medical device-related data to improve health care outcomes for consumers.

“It’s a pleasure to welcome Atrium Health to MDIAS,” said Kim Warren, vice president of MITRE’s Center for Transforming Health, operator of the CMS Alliance to Modernize Healthcare, a federally funded research and development center, more commonly known as the Health FFRDC. “As an early adopter—and the very first health system to join MDIAS—Atrium Health’s active participation will benefit patients, regulators, and the medical device ecosystem.”

“Safety is at the heart of our organization,” said Dr. Rasu Shrestha, executive vice president and chief innovation and commercialization officer for Advocate Health, of which Atrium Health is a part. “Delivering the safest care and highest-quality outcomes ensures we’re the most trusted choice for care. We’re also driven to advance the science of medicine in the most innovative ways possible. To that end, our team is dedicated to developing the most comprehensive provider-based research data set in the country. Our organization is excited for this opportunity to join MDIAS to help improve patient safety across the entire health care industry.”

MDIAS convenes multiple stakeholders to discuss medical device quality and safety issues and solve those challenges collaboratively. Recognizing that data from a wide variety of sources can provide greater insights than data from a single source alone, participants agree to share appropriate data with MITRE for analysis and development of recommendations for organizational and industry-wide performance improvement.
