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.

Keysight Verifies Autotalks’ 5G New Radio Vehicle-to-Everything System-on-a-Chip

  • Solution provided physical layer verification testing against 3GPP Release 16 Sidelink standards
  • Enabled rigorous physical layer testing needed to verify system-on-a-chip designs, ensuring reliable, interference-free communications

Keysight Technologies, Inc. (NYSE: KEYS) has enabled Autotalks to verify the TEKTON3 vehicle-to-everything (V2X) system-on-a-chip (SoC) that meets the physical layer specifications of the 3GPP 5G New Radio (NR) Release 16 (Rel-16) Sidelink standards using PathWave V2X solutions.

Sidelink is a feature of 3GPP Rel-16 that supports direct communication between two devices and is a key enabler of next-generation 5G NR V2X Day 2 use cases that improve road safety. An example of a Day 2 use case is cooperative perception, where two vehicles with 5G NR V2X technology can communicate with each other and share information detected by the vehicles’ sensors. Sidelink features are enabled through the physical layer communication, which defines the signals and channels needed for robust, stable, and feature-rich communication. To ensure reliable and interference-free communication among vehicles, rigorous physical layer testing is needed during the design and verification stage of SoC development.

Autotalks used the PathWave X-Series measurement application for 5G NR V2X operating on the Keysight MXA signal analyzer and the PathWave Signal Generation for 5G NR V2X running on the Keysight EXG signal generator to test the TEKTON3 5G V2X transceiver. The PathWave X-Series measurement application provides one-button testing for 5G NR V2X spectrum and power measurements such as channel power, spectral emission mask, adjacent channel power ratio, occupied bandwidth, and complementary cumulative distribution function defined in the TS38.521-1 transmitter conformance test specification.

Amos Freund, Vice President of Research and Development, Autotalks, said: “To ensure the development of this state-of-the-art technology, we strongly believe it must go through an advanced validation process. Working collaboratively with Keysight, we were able to validate our third generation V2X chipset baseband and radio characteristics, paving the way for the most advanced safety use cases in the automotive industry.”

Thomas Goetzl, Vice President and General Manager of Keysight's Automotive and Energy Solutions, said: “Sidelink is an essential enabling technology for 5G V2X Day 2 use cases that promise improved safety and a better overall driving experience. With our easy-to-use PathWave NR V2X signal analysis and generation software suite, Autotalks gained valuable access to 3GPP standard-compliant measurements and signals that saved R&D resources and time, as well as accelerated the verification of its TEKTON3 SoC.”
