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 Introduces PCIe Designer and Chiplet PHY Designer for Digital Standards-Driven Simulation Workflows

By: via Business Wire
  • Improves PCIe design productivity using a smarter and streamlined workflow with simulation-driven virtual compliance test solutions
  • Supports design exploration and report generation that speeds chiplet signal integrity analysis and UCIe compliance verification to increase designer productivity and time-to-market

Keysight Technologies, Inc. (NYSE: KEYS) introduces PCIe Designer, a new product in the Advanced Design System (ADS) product suite that supports simulation workflows based on industry standards for high-speed, high-frequency digital designs. PCIe Designer is an intelligent design environment for modeling and simulating the latest Peripheral Component Interconnect Express (PCIe) Gen5 and Gen6 systems. Keysight is also improving its electronic design automation (EDA) platform by adding new features to the existing Chiplet PHY Designer tool to estimate chiplet die-to-die link margin performance and Voltage Transfer Function (VTF) compliance measurement.

PCIe is a versatile and essential interface standard across a wide range of electronics industry segments due to its high-speed data transfer capabilities, scalability, and adaptability. Adoption spans from everyday consumer electronics to specialized applications in high-performance computing and critical infrastructure systems.

Complex PCIe designs support multi-link and multi-lane systems that involve a complex analysis setup between RootComplex and End-Point, sometimes incorporating mid-channel repeaters. Designers spend an inordinate amount of time preparing simulations that are prone to mistakes. Simulations often lack vendor-specific algorithmic modeling interface (AMI) simulation models, which are required early in the design cycle for design space exploration. Designers also need assurance that their prototype design will pass compliance testing before hardware fabrication.

Productivity, Workflow, and Compliance Improvement Features

  • The PCIe Designer automates the setup for multi-link, multi-lane, and multi-level (PAM4) PCIe systems using a smart design environment. It simplifies simulation setup and reduces time-to-first-insight.
  • The PCIe AMI modeler, which supports NRZ and PAM4 modulations, facilitates quick AMI model generation needed for PCIe system analysis. The AMI Model Builder gives designers a wizard-driven AMI model generation workflow to rapidly create models for both transmitters (Tx) and receivers (Rx).
  • Streamlined, simulation-driven virtual compliance testing enables designers to ensure design quality. The integrated, simulation-driven PCIe compliance test workflow reduces design costs by minimizing design iterations and shortening time-to-market.

Chiplet PHY Designer Enhancements

  • Chiplet PHY Designer is the EDA industry’s first simulation solution for Universal Chiplet Interconnect Express (UCIe) standards, enabling predictions of die-to-die link margin, VTF for channel compliance analysis, and forwarded clock capability. Chiplet PHY Designer includes new design exploration and report generation features that accelerate signal integrity analysis and compliance verification to improve designer productivity and time-to-market.

Hee-Soo Lee, Director of High-Speed Digital segment, Keysight EDA, said, “We continue to expand our standards-driven workflow approach to support our customers. Our high-speed digital product portfolio is leading the EDA industry with the most accurate and advanced simulation software for signal integrity analysis and compliance test validation. Digital standards such as PCIe and UCIe are critical to the performance of electronic systems. Designers using our PCIe and UCIe simulation solutions in their workflows can shift left their development cycle to save significant time and cost.”
