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.

Videojet Launches New Laser Marking Systems Designed for Precise, Permanent Marking and Easy Integration

New Videojet 3350 30-Watt CO2 laser series delivers next-level flexibility to adapt rapidly to changing production needs

In response to manufacturers’ demands for high-performance laser marking solutions, Videojet Technologies, a global leader in coding, marking and printing solutions, has added to its successful range of CO2 lasers with the introduction of the Videojet 3350 and Videojet 3350 Smart Focus 30-watt CO2 laser marking systems. The lasers are designed to mark sharp, complex codes at high speeds for the food, beverage, cosmetics, pharmaceutical, packaging and extrusion industries. Both systems offer virtually unlimited font, code and graphic options.

Manufacturers who mark on products and packaging of varying sizes and who perform frequent product changeovers require flexible coding and marking systems to keep production lines running efficiently. The new Videojet 3350 laser’s flexible marking head includes 32 standard beam delivery options, while the 3350 Smart Focus laser’s marking head provides 0° to 90° rotation without the need for additional parts.

The advanced 3350 Smart Focus laser is equipped with cutting-edge automatic focusing and dynamic marking capabilities for easy product changeovers without moving the laser. The Smart Focus option enables multi-level marking with the benefit of an auto-adjustable focal distance, uniform flat field correction, a pilot beam focus finder and a flexible range/size mode. These features help to reduce operator touches, improve mark quality and increase uptime.

“We know that manufacturers are facing new and ever-changing production challenges, and they need high-performance lasers to meet their increasing production requirements,” said Letizia Caselle, Business Unit Director for Videojet. “With the innovative features of the new 3350 CO2 Smart Focus laser system, users can now mark different sized products or on multiple levels on the same product without needing to adjust the laser. Fewer manual adjustments result in more uptime and higher throughput for today’s production environments.”

Both new Videojet 3350 series lasers offer high-speed marking capabilities to print text, bar codes, graphics and other information at speeds up to 2,000 characters per second. The high-resolution marking head delivers high-quality, permanent codes to support product traceability and anti-counterfeiting.

The variety of lenses offered with the 3350 series lasers deliver one of the industry’s largest marking areas. Multiple marking heads and wavelengths provide the flexibility to code a wide range of materials including plastics, wood, glass, ceramics and coated metals.

The laser systems are engineered to help users meet their Industry 4.0 goals with built-in Wi-Fi and cellular connections that help to minimize IT workload and reduce the cost of connecting equipment to a network. Housed in an access box, these Wi-Fi and cellular connections enable easy software updates and fewer service interactions while improving overall equipment efficiency with the availability of more production information.

“The integrated Wi-Fi and cellular connections provide simple and secure ways for users to communicate and gather data from the 3350 laser marking systems,” said Caselle. “Videojet designed these ‘born digital’ lasers with built-in connectivity options to deliver powerful, dependable and easy-to-use marking solutions that are well-suited for consumer-packaged goods and industrial production lines.”

A remote interface control takes advantage of a web server that allows users to access the lasers via supported web browsers on host computers. Optional VideojetConnect™ Remote Service allows both Videojet and in-house technicians to monitor a laser’s status, troubleshoot issues and improve long-term performance.
