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.

Praia Health Secures Strategic Investment from Labcorp Venture Fund, Announces New Collaboration to Streamline Patient Lab Ordering Experience

Collaboration to leverage Praia Health’s technology and Labcorp’s comprehensive testing capabilities to streamline and personalize patient experience

Praia Health, the consumer experience orchestration platform for health systems, is pleased to announce it has secured a strategic investment from the Labcorp Venture Fund and will collaborate with Labcorp, a global leader of innovative and comprehensive laboratory services, to streamline and personalize the patient experience for lab orders and testing within select health systems.

“Our collaboration with Labcorp represents a significant step forward in delivering personalized and seamless healthcare experiences,” said Justin Dearborn, CEO at Praia Health. “We are thrilled to work together to bring these benefits to patients nationwide.”

Praia Health’s platform identifies patients with lab orders and provides tailored notifications and cards within a health system’s mobile application or logged-in web experience. Patients can easily schedule lab tests ordered by their physicians and find the closest appropriate Labcorp facility, ensuring their specific testing and lab requirements are met, including service availability, operating hours and staffing.

“This collaboration aligns with our commitment to provide physicians and patients with expanded access to high-quality, comprehensive and convenient lab services,” said Bryan Vaughn, Labcorp’s SVP, Health and Hospital Systems and Mid-America Division. “We look forward to what the future holds as we leverage Praia Health’s innovative technology to enhance the patient experience.”

The collaboration will initially launch at Providence, one of the nation’s largest and most innovative health systems, at their Puget Sound location.

“By simplifying the process for lab orders and testing, we are making healthcare more accessible and convenient for our patients. This initiative represents a significant advancement in enhancing the overall patient experience,” said Andy Chu, Providence’s SVP of Product and Technology Incubation.

Labcorp and Praia Health anticipate expanding access to other hospitals and health systems across the country. To learn more about these capabilities, contact Praia Health at Contact (praiahealth.com) or Labcorp at https://insights.labcorp.com/HealthSystemsContactUs.
