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.

Hewlett Packard Enterprise to Deliver AIST’s Next-generation Supercomputer for Generative AI Powered by NVIDIA

Japan’s major research institution, the National Institute of Advanced Science and Technology (AIST), offers powerful supercomputer for AI as a cloud service to enterprise, government, and academic clients

Hewlett Packard Enterprise (NYSE: HPE) today announced it will build a new supercomputer powered by NVIDIA for one of Japan’s largest research institutions, AIST (National Institute of Advanced Industrial Science and Technology). AIST’s next-generation supercomputer, ABCI (AI Bridging Cloud Infrastructure) 3.0, will be offered as a cloud service to public and private organizations to support large foundational models for generative AI to accelerate the advancement of research, development, innovation, and social implementation.

AIST’s new ABCI 3.0 will be built using HPE Cray XD systems featuring NVIDIA H200 Tensor Core GPUs, interconnected by NVIDIA Quantum-2 InfiniBand networking, to address growing AI workload demands for computational resources and is expected to achieve a theoretical maximum of approximately 6.2 exaflops of half-precision (16-bit) performance. ABCI 3.0, which is slated to be the fastest AI supercomputer in Japan, will help meet the high demand for computing resources for the country’s growing number of AI workloads.

“Making AI accessible and inclusive is critical to bolstering innovation across industries and enhancing societal impact,” said Antonio Neri, president and CEO at HPE. "We are honored AIST selected HPE’s proven AI systems and expertise, combined with NVIDIA's industry-leading accelerated computing platform, to power its AI cloud service. The AIST system will enable public and private organizations to advance research, drive innovation, and create value from generative AI.”

Since 2018, AIST has made its cloud supercomputing services accessible to research institutions, universities, and commercial companies of all sizes, from startups to major electronics manufacturers. AIST’s ABCI systems have supported a range of scientific research, including the development of AI techniques to predict genome sequencing and materials informatics, and Japanese large language models (LLMs).

“In response to the escalating demand for generative AI and computational resources, AIST is maximizing the capabilities of ABCI 3.0 with unparalleled machine learning performance delivered through a powerful supercomputer,” said Dr. Yoshio Tanaka, Executive Officer, AIST. “We value our collaboration with HPE and NVIDIA to deliver AI cloud services that rapidly train large-scale foundational models built from ever-growing datasets of image, acoustic, and sensor information, and we look forward to working more closely together to support the user community.”

“Every nation needs its own AI infrastructure to drive innovation and growth,” said Jensen Huang, founder and CEO of NVIDIA. “Working alongside HPE and AIST, we will help Japan leverage its unique capabilities and data to boost productivity, invigorate its economy, and advance scientific discovery.”
