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.

Sg2 Data Highlights Urgency for Increased Cardiovascular Intervention Resources in US Hospitals

By: via Business Wire

Sg2, a Vizient company, has published a white paper on the effects of the rapid increase in cardiovascular disease and related challenge of timely patient access to lifesaving interventions such as transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) procedures. The paper, “The Rising Tide of Cardiovascular Disease: A Looming Crisis for Cardiovascular Intervention Resources” notes an 8% increase in demand for inpatient procedures and a 25% increase for outpatient procedures over the next 10 years.

“We are seeing significant growth in heart valve diseases such as aortic stenosis due to underlying risk factors such as hypertension, high cholesterol, obesity and diabetes, as well as other cardiovascular diseases such as congestive heart failure,” said Joshua Aaker, PhD, director, Sg2. “Hospitals struggling to provide timely access to interventions such as TAVR, will likely have sicker patients who need more intensive services and longer hospital stays.”

To address this issue, Sg2 recommends health systems focus on short-term care redesign and long-term investment plans for catheterization labs, care teams, resources and patient beds to match forecasted demand. The paper includes multiple short- and long-term strategies including:

  • Optimizing existing capacity via flexible scheduling protocols and identifying low-risk procedures that can be shifted to noninvasive approaches.
  • Adopting AI-enabled tools for patient management to help identify high-risk patients, assess social determinants of health (SDOH) and ensure the efficient provision of guideline-directed medical therapy.
  • Collaborating with home health agencies to enable same-day discharge for certain cardiovascular procedures to reduce bed-day utilization.
  • Leveraging remote patient monitoring for managing chronic conditions such as heart failure, hypertension and post-TAVR follow-up to optimize workforce efficiency.
  • Acquiring or building additional ambulatory surgery centers or procedural suites to alleviate capacity constraints.

“By strategically optimizing existing resources and making the necessary investments in people, technology and infrastructure, health systems can improve their cardiovascular service lines, enhance patient care and position themselves to meet the increasing need for complex, resource-intensive procedures like TAVR,” said Aaker.
