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.

Infleqtion's Quantum Software Platform Secures $1.15M DOE Grant, Paving the Way for Energy-Efficient Computing

By: via Business Wire

SBIR Phase IIB Award for Quantum Computing Software Unlocks Practical Quantum Computing Applications

Infleqtion, the world’s leading quantum information company, today announced it has been awarded a $1.15M grant by the Department of Energy (DOE) under the SBIR Phase IIB program. This grant marks the first DOE SBIR Phase IIB award given to software for quantum computing and will help advance Infleqtion’s work on Superstaq, the company’s software platform purpose-built to optimize quantum computing performance.

“One of the biggest opportunities to accelerate progress toward fault-tolerant quantum computing lies not in the hardware, but in the software. This is a unique area of focus for Infleqtion, and we’ve already demonstrated how Superstaq can enable up to 10x performance gains by taking specific device characteristics into consideration,” said Matthew Kinsella, CEO of Infleqtion. “The SBIR grant is a testament to the pioneering work we’ve already done and will be a catalyst for ongoing breakthroughs in quantum software.”

Quantum technology is widely recognized for its potential to transform industries such as defense, finance, energy, healthcare, life sciences, and more. However, progress with quantum computing continues to be hampered by reliability and performance issues, which are exacerbated by software stacks that lack device-specific optimizations. Infleqtion’s groundbreaking Superstaq platform addresses this issue – and closes a key gap for the realization of commercially relevant quantum computing applications – by integrating a deep understanding of quantum hardware with end-user applications.

A Milestone for Quantum Software

Superstaq optimizes the performance of quantum computers, enabling faster and more reliable program execution. The platform uses proprietary cross-layer optimization techniques to enhance execution, error mitigation and hardware-specific operation. Infleqtion collaborates on the platform with leading quantum centers, including the Advanced Quantum Testbed (AQT) at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory and QSCOUT at Sandia National Laboratories.

“Since 2021, the Advanced Quantum Testbed at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory has collaborated with the Superstaq team through its user program,” said Christopher Spitzer, Berkeley Lab’s Quantum Program Manager. “This research collaboration has led to several impactful demonstrations and published results for the broader scientific community, bringing us all closer to achieving the real benefits of quantum technology.”

“QSCOUT has been engaged with the Superstaq team since 2021, and many of the QSCOUT user teams have been able to use their noise-aware, circuit optimization software to tailor their codes to our trapped-ion hardware. We continue to collaborate with Superstaq on developing new optimizations to provide our user teams with world-class quantum research experiences,” said Susan Clark, QSCOUT Principal Investigator.

The SBIR Phase IIB project will drive further advancement of Superstaq, with a focus on four technical objectives: efficient quantum characterization, optimized compilation for mid-circuit measurement, low-level compilation, and experimental demonstration of pristine resource state distillation. These are each aimed at further advancing the capabilities of quantum software to act as a force-multiplier towards commercially relevant applications. The potential public benefits are far ranging and include advancements in fields such as drug discovery, chemical simulations, aircraft design, logistics planning, and energy sector innovations.

Infleqtion's leadership in quantum computing led to its selection as part of Japan’s Quantum Moonshot program, a cutting-edge initiative to advance Japan’s technological capabilities. Infleqtion is the only foreign quantum computing partner in the program. As part of the program, Infleqtion will collaborate to develop a large-scale, neutral atom quantum computer with high-fidelity qubits.

Professor Kenji Ohmori of the Institute for Molecular Science, who leads the Moonshot program, said, “We are pleased to be leveraging Infleqtion's expertise to push the boundaries of quantum computing. Together with Infleqtion’s software and hardware teams, we are developing a cutting-edge device to transform Japan’s technological capabilities, economy, industry, and security.”
