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.

Identiv Introduces Next-Generation HF NFC-Enabled RFID Inlays Powered by NXP’s ICODE® 3

High-performance specialty inlays deliver enhanced RF performance, faster reading speed, and more impactful NFC user interactions for IoT applications

Identiv, Inc. (NASDAQ: INVE), a global leader in RFID and BLE-enabled Internet of Things (IoT) solutions, today announced its portfolio of next-generation, high-frequency (HF) near field communication (NFC)-enabled inlays, designed to power and support innovative IoT applications. Identiv’s ID-Tune I3 and ID-Safe I3 NFC tags are the first to feature NXP® Semiconductors’ ICODE 3 chip, delivering superior radio frequency (RF) performance, faster reading speed, reliable tag protection and enhanced NFC features. ID-Safe tags additionally come with first opening indication (conductive tamper loop). These inlays are ideally suited for applications demanding high performance, operational efficiency, and data protection.

NXP’s ICODE® 3 chip, purpose-built for IoT applications, powers Identiv’s latest inlay family to offer advanced features tailored for sectors such as healthcare, logistics, industrial, smart packaging, specialty retail, and more.

Key Features of Identiv’s ICODE® 3-Based Inlays

  • ISO/IEC 15693 and NFC Forum Type 5 Tag compliance: Ensures compatibility across devices
  • High-speed read rate (ISO/IEC 15693): Up to 212kbit/s (ISO 15693) for faster data processing
  • One-lock memory encoding: Simplifies and accelerates inlay deployment
  • Customizable originality signature: 32 or 48 bytes for validation of tag origin
  • SELFAdjust technology: First HF chip automatically optimizing RF performance to increase readability across different materials and environments
  • Enhanced privacy: Two password-protected modes ensure non-traceability of tags
  • Enhanced NFC features for serialized, dynamic and contextual messaging upon an NFC phone tap

Amir Khoshniyati, Executive Vice President and General Manager, Identiv, said, “We’re thrilled to expand our partnership with NXP through the launch of our newest product families, ID-Tune and ID-Safe, featuring NXP's ICODE® 3 technology. These advanced NFC inlays deliver unmatched performance, supporting specialized and complex IoT applications that continue to drive the IoT ecosystem forward.”

Versatility for a Wide Range of IoT Applications

The ID-Tune I3 and ID-Safe I3 NFC inlays excel in both vicinity range (up to 1.5 meters) and close-range interactions. In the vicinity range, enhanced readability, material compatibility, and rapid data transfer enable seamless integration and improve operational efficiency. For close-range applications, features like first-opening indication and flexible counters enhance user engagement and product interactivity.

These capabilities position Identiv’s NFC inlays as ideal for applications like:

  • Product tracking and inventory management
  • Brand protection and anti-counterfeiting
  • Automated communication in smart device - consumable systems
  • Personalized consumer engagement

In healthcare, they support applications such as diagnostics, monitoring, therapy, and home medical devices. Other sectors include logistics, wine and spirits, specialty retail, smart home devices, and smart packaging.
