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.

USound’s Active Linearization Algorithm (ALA) Sets New Standards for MEMS Speaker-Based Audio Systems

USound’s Active Linearization Algorithm (ALA) was developed to assist audio systems developers in their efforts to improve the total harmonic distortion (THD) performance of MEMS speakers. The innovative software tool is already available for purchase.

USound, a leading provider of advanced audio solutions, announced the availability of Active Linearization Algorithm (ALA), a revolutionary signal processing tool that helps reduce the total harmonic distortion (THD) of MEMS speakers. The software tool sets new standards in the development of over-the-counter (OTC) hearing aids and Hi-Fi true wireless stereo (TWS) headphones.

Wireless and miniaturized audio devices require lightweight speakers with a slim form factor, which can also deliver outstanding audio performance. To achieve that, audio systems developers are required to monitor the THD -the measurement of the harmonic distortion present in a signal- of MEMS speakers. The new signal processing tool provides an additional measure for reducing the THD, setting new standards for the entire industry.

ALA enables audio systems developers to significantly reduce the THD of MEMS speakers, which, in turn, improves the audio quality of end products. USound continuously researches and develops audio solutions that set new standards on the market. The release of ALA software tool is another turning point for USound and the entire audio electronics industry.

-Ferruccio Bottoni, USound’s CEO

USound’s ALA can be applied to a system that has been already optimized to improve the THD performance. By digitally compensating the non-linearities of the speaker, ALA helps developers to further reduce the THD and improve audio quality of an end device. This achievement will not only benefit MEMS speaker-based audio system manufacturers, but also improve the experience of end users. These include patients with partial hearing loss who will be able to enjoy slimmer hearing aids with profound audio quality.
