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.

Paragonix Technologies Raises $24M in Series B Led by Signet Healthcare Partners

Leader in organ transplant technologies secures institutional growth capital to drive organ preservation innovation and commercial expansion

Paragonix Technologies, Inc., a leading organ transplant company, today announced that it has secured $24 million in Series B funding, led by Signet Healthcare Partners. This growth investment will bolster Paragonix Technologies’ commercial footprint, including its ongoing extension of clinical service offerings and inventory expansion, and will enable the Company to further advance transplant innovations.

Paragonix Technologies, a leading developer and manufacturer in the organ transplant industry, offers three FDA-cleared and CE-marked devices: Paragonix SherpaPak®, LUNGguard Donor Lung Preservation System, and the LIVERguard System. All three devices utilize first-of-its-kind preservation methods that present a significant improvement over traditional ice and cooler practices still used today. Paragonix devices combine clinically-proven, stable preservation technology with a comprehensive clinical support network, augmented by the largest clinical registries of organ preservation data worldwide. They also incorporate digital tracking and communication technologies to provide complete control over organ tracking, monitoring, and reporting.

“The future of Paragonix is full of promise and excitement. Our focus remains on creating the best possible product to help more people receive a second chance at life in a safe and effective manner,” said Dr. Lisa Anderson, CEO of Paragonix Technologies. “This growth investment arrives at a critical moment as we strive to meet rising demands for our organ preservation products. We are excited to rapidly advance our innovation pipeline to enhance our ability to safely preserve and transport as many donor organs as possible. We are thrilled to have Signet as our partner in accelerating growth and achieving our ambitious long-term strategic objectives, and we look forward to leveraging their vast experience in the medical device market.”

Ashley Friedman, Managing Director at Signet Healthcare Partners, stated, "At Signet, we seek to invest in highly innovative and fast-growing healthcare companies. Paragonix has rapidly become a leader in the organ transplant market and is having a significant impact on the future of transplant medicine. We are impressed by their commercial and clinical achievements to date and are excited to partner with their dedicated and versatile team during the next phase of growth."

In 2022, over 1 in 5 thoracic donor organs transplanted in the U.S. were preserved and transported using a Paragonix device. The Paragonix SherpaPak® System is the most commonly utilized FDA-cleared and CE-marked medical device for U.S. heart preservation and transport. According to 2022 transplant data, 19 out of the 30 largest U.S. heart transplant programs, as well as over 80 global transplant programs, rely on Paragonix devices to safely preserve, track, and transport critical donor organs to their intended recipients.

Gunderson Dettmer acted as legal counsel for Paragonix Technologies. Sheppard, Mullin, Richter & Hampton LLP and Knobbe Martens acted as legal counsel for Signet Healthcare Partners. Terms of the transaction were not disclosed.
