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.

Flex and JetCool Partner to Develop Liquid Cooling-Ready Servers for AI and High-Density Workloads

JetCool, a leading liquid cooling company for data centers, and Flex (NASDAQ: FLEX) today announced a partnership to address the growing demand for AI servers and high-density compute from hyperscalers and enterprise customers. The companies are building rack-level solutions, including a new line of co-designed liquid cooling-ready servers that are compliant with Open Compute Project (OCP) specification.

The new servers leverage JetCool’s patented microconvective liquid cooling technology that uses precision jets to target and cool processor hot spots. This precision cooling manages the increased heat from high-performance AI and compute workloads, ensuring optimal performance and reliability. Additionally, these liquid-cooled servers provide a versatile platform for hyperscalers to design customized AI chip architectures and tailored server configurations to meet unique performance requirements.

JetCool is also launching a 6U in-rack Coolant Distribution Unit (CDU) that is capable of cooling 300kW and scalable to 2.1MW at a row level. At the 2024 OCP Global Summit, JetCool will also demonstrate its fully-sealed SmartPlate cold plate, which cools superchips over 3kW, showcasing the significant headroom potential for single-phase direct-to-chip liquid cooling for high-performance applications, using sustainable non-toxic fluids.

“Advanced cooling systems are essential for supporting AI-enabled applications, high-performance computing, and increased rack power densities,” said Rob Campbell, president of Communications, Enterprise and Cloud at Flex. “JetCool extends the value of single-phase, direct-to-chip liquid cooling deployments to meet the escalating power demands of AI servers. Flex’s expertise across IT and power infrastructure, global manufacturing, and vertical integration makes these solutions easier to deploy at scale.”

“As AI and other high-density workloads push the limits of conventional cooling methods, the need for advanced solutions becomes critical,” said Dr. Bernie Malouin, CEO of JetCool. “Partnering with Flex allows us to combine our cutting-edge liquid cooling solutions with Flex’s unparalleled manufacturing capabilities. Together, we are poised to deliver servers for AI at scale that not only meet but exceed the performance and efficiency requirements of hyperscalers and enterprise customers.”

Together, JetCool and Flex provide a complete rack-level solution for AI-enabled applications, delivering integrated cooling and server technology that supports the full spectrum of AI workloads and high-performance computing with unmatched efficiency and scalability. View JetCool's portfolio of offerings at the Flex booth A11 and at JetCool booth A21 at the 2024 OCP Global Summit taking place at the San Jose Convention Center in San Jose, CA from October 15-17, 2024.
