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 Introduces Qualified Plastic Arm Microcontroller for New Space Missions

Frontgrade Technologies, a leading provider of mission critical electronics for aerospace and defense, has introduced its first plastic-encapsulated Arm® Microcontroller to the Space market. This new Arm Microcontroller will achieve flight grade production in July 2024 through NASA’s PEM INST-001 Level 2 qualification standard for plastic-encapsulated microcircuits. The PEM qualification assures Frontgrade’s customers that the device meets the radiation tolerance requirements and reliability standards vital to withstanding the harsh environments encountered during New Space Missions.

“The proliferation of satellites for LEO missions is increasing the demand for highly reliable components with efficient SWaP-C characteristics and radiation assurances,” said Dr. J. Mitch Stevison, President and CEO of Frontgrade Technologies. “Adding another plastic device to our portfolio that is qualified to NASA’s Space PEM Level 2 strengthens our position as a trusted provider of high reliability, radiation-assured devices for critical space missions.”

Frontgrade’s plastic Arm Microcontroller has a small footprint designed with ease of implementation in mind. It effectively functions in an ecosystem built around more costly discrete components for intra-satellite communications. The device uses the Arm Cortex M0+ 32-bit processor with a RISC-based architecture, and its industry standard Arm technology provides powerful development and debug tools for customers’ specific applications.

The new microcontroller is the only product on the market today that combines two independent CAN2.0B controllers with mission read/write flash memory and system-on-ship functionality. This integration enables designers to effectively manage board utilization and to reduce cost and complexity. The device’s rugged plastic ball grid array (BGA) package also has the same input/output configuration and features as Frontgrade’s ceramic QML Arm Microcontroller.
