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.

Frontgrade’s DDR4 memory is the first to be engineered to enable individual reset signals to each die, thus mitigating the impact of single event functional interrupt (SEFIs) in flight and ensuring continuous satellite up time. This new DDR4 ensures unparalleled reliability and performance in modern satellite payloads that need to move and process vast amounts of data in a size- and power-constrained system. The DDR4 memory will achieve space qualification through the PEM-INST-001 (NASA EEE-INST-002) – Level 2 standard in Q2 2025.

“We designed this low SWaP memory to be compatible with the industry’s leading FPGAs and microprocessors,” said David Meyouhas, Vice President of Product Management at Frontgrade. “By bringing the first 18 GB DDR4 to market, Frontgrade is giving our customers the ability to push the boundaries of critical missions.”

The radiation-tolerant 2Gx72 DDR4 memory provides 16 GB of useable memory and 2 GB of error correcting code. The memory comes in a 266 plastic ball grid array with a 1mm ball pitch, helping to simplify board manufacturing and assembly. The ultra-fast 18 GB DDR4 memory supports a transfer rate of 2,400 mega-transfers per second. It exhibits no destructive latch-up through 82MeV-cm2/mg at 105°C and has a Mean Time To Failure (MTTF) of 40,000 years in a GEO orbit.

The 18 GB DDR4 was developed and is produced in collaboration with Viking Technology, based in Costa Mesa, CA.
