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.

Cerberus® XL C-UAS is a rugged, state-of-the-art integrated system equipped with high performance long-range sensors and Counter Unmanned Aerial Systems (C-UAS) technology. The platform combines advanced thermal/visual imaging systems with highly sensitive, long-range 3D radars and RF detection to quickly locate and track drone targets, plus third-party non-kinetic effectors that can defeat threats out to three kilometers.

The mobile trailer-based system can deploy rapidly in the most challenging environments. Cerberus XL C-UAS is modular and can be configured for air, ground, and maritime threats. It offers users a multi-domain situational awareness solution for the toughest air security challenges, such as military force protection, flight lines, airports, seaports, borders, and critical infrastructure.

Cerberus XL C-UAS addresses the entire counter-drone kill chain, including detect, track, identify and defeat. The platform is designed to easily integrate with kinetic defeat solutions and features sensors with advanced AI to boost target identification accuracy.

Last year, FLIR Defense signed a $31 million contract with Kongsberg Defence & Aerospace, Norway to deliver Cerberus XL C-UAS as part of a complete counter-drone solution for Ukrainian forces. The system has performed successfully throughout the Ukraine theater.

Key features include:

  • Modularity – Designed to support a variety of sensors and payloads, the system offers multiple range configurations tailored to mission requirements.
  • Continuous Air Defense – Maintain uninterrupted air security by detecting and tracking over 500 targets simultaneously with advanced radar and RF technology.
  • ‘Soft’ Kill Chain – A multi-sensor, layered surveillance and UAS countermeasure system using radar and RF for detection, non-kinetic jamming and disruption, and EO/IR for precise tracking and identification.
  • Integrated Command & Control – The Teledyne Cameleon™ C2 client interface offers mapping, track display, camera control, mission recording, and system health monitoring.
  • Reduced Operator Workload – The system integrates and analyzes inputs from multiple sensors and systems, easing operator workload and increasing autonomy.
  • Rapidly Deployable Trailer Platform – Ready to be deployed in extreme conditions, Cerberus XL C-UAS features a rugged fixed mast on a mobile platform that can be setup in minutes, not hours.

“The Cerberus XL C-UAS is one of the most sophisticated, sensitive, and comprehensive counter-drone systems available anywhere,” said Dr. JihFen Lei, president of Teledyne FLIR Defense. “Battle-tested and proven in Ukraine, Cerberus brings together the superior surveillance and radar technologies FLIR Defense has innovated for decades.

“Military and civilian customers can go from zero counter-UAS capacity to a full solution with this rapid-setup platform that integrates with existing effector systems to deliver drone defeat capabilities users can rely on,” Lei added.

Cerberus XL C-UAS and its ground surveillance variant, Cerberus® XL, both are available now to ship worldwide.
