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.

"The BMA 360DX shatters traditional barriers by combining advanced AV and IT technologies for unmatched performance and effortless deployment," said Derek Graham, CEO of ClearOne. "This groundbreaking product embodies our commitment to offering both AV and IT practitioners the opportunity to make supreme professional quality audio accessible to all by seamlessly integrating superior audio performance and a sustainable design at an unbeatable price. This all-in-one design eliminates rack space, and reduces packaging, storage, and shipping requirements, so it contributes to a more environmentally friendly meeting solution."

Integrated beamforming microphone processing within the BMA 360DX provides truly ultra-wideband, frequency-invariant performance with uniform-gain response across all frequency bands. FiBeam™ technology gives users the ultimate in rich, natural, and full-fidelity audio across all beams and within a single beam. Deep Sidelobe Beamforming, DsBeam™, provides unparalleled sidelobe depth, below -40 dB, resulting in superior rejection of reverb and noise in difficult spaces for superb clarity and intelligibility.

ClearOne's 7G Acoustic Echo Cancellation (AEC) and adaptive acoustic processing provide unrivaled echo elimination and full-duplex audio, even in the most challenging spaces. ClearOne's BMA 360DX breakthrough technologies, FiBeam, DsBeam, and 7G AEC, combine to create VividVoice™, a significant advancement for professional conferencing which ensures an equitable meeting experience.

Precision Beamforming provides intuitive camera tracking and unparalleled audio with rich, natural, full-fidelity ultra-wideband sound. Native camera tracking support for networked PTZ cameras provides an engaging and seamless visual experience, and eliminates the complexity and expense of external controllers. The Voice Lift feature provides a powerful way to cover multiple zones with unmatched gains, ensuring everyone can hear every word, especially in large spaces.

An Integrated DSP processor provides everything needed to combine, route, and process all the audio signals with no compromises. This includes acoustic echo cancellation, noise suppression, auto mixing, equalization filters, delays, feedback eliminators, compressors, limiters, and Dante®. The built-in power amplifiers, selectable as 4x15 Watt or 2x30 Watt, simplify installations with loudspeakers.

Setting up the BMA 360DX is incredibly quick and easy with auto-detection of additional beamforming microphone arrays and peripherals such as USB expanders, analog audio I/Os, and HDMI audio de-embedders. With everything on board, its scalable design easily adapts to a variety of meeting spaces.

Configurations can be customized using the intuitive CONSOLE® One software, while the powerful CONVERGENCE® AV Manager simplifies management and monitoring of the BMA 360DX and other ClearOne devices, including DSP processors, wireless microphones, and cameras.

As with all ClearOne solutions, the BMA 360DX supports leading collaboration platforms like Microsoft Teams®, Google Meet®, Zoom®, and WebEx®.

The BMA 360DX will be on display at ISE 2025 in Booth# 2N220 at Fira Barcelona Gran Vía Venue, Barcelona, Spain.
