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.

Logitech is Flipping the Script on Complex Meetings with Rally Board 65

All-in-one video solution packs advanced capabilities into a simple, mobile conferencing device

Logitech (SIX: LOGN) (NASDAQ: LOGI) today announced Rally Board 65, an all-in-one portable video conference solution that combines intelligent audio and video with a 65” touchscreen display. Rally Board 65 is simple enough to roll on a cart into satellite offices, yet sophisticated enough to pack a suite of AI-powered features, occupancy and environmental detection into traditional meeting rooms.

Businesses face this dilemma every day: they want to provide modern video conferencing tools for their hybrid workforces, but IT teams are grappling with increasing workloads as their tech environments become more complicated.

“Hybrid workers expect all spaces to be video-enabled and adaptable enough to collaborate on a moment’s notice, whether in an open space, traditional room, collaborative room or learning space,” said Prakash Arunkundrum, Chief Operating Officer and GM of Logitech for Business. “So we asked ourselves: how can we create a smart, supremely sophisticated conferencing system, while drastically simplifying set up? The answer is Rally Board 65, a flexible solution that breaks the pattern of tech complexity that overwhelms companies.”

The powerful, all-in-one video conferencing solution can be up and running within minutes in Android, PC, or BYOD mode, whether teams use Microsoft Teams, Zoom, or Google Meet*. Simply roll Rally Board 65 on a cart into an open space and flip the device 180 degrees to orient the camera at eye level, or install it in a meeting room with the camera above or below the screen–all with very little IT support.

Building on its exceptionally sharp 4K video, Rally Board 65 comes loaded with AI-powered audio visual tech RightSight 2 and RightSound 2 that have become hallmarks of Logitech’s video bars. To further refine the experience, Camera Zone limits visual framing and Mic Zone minimizes sound pickup within a designated area. The new Depth Blur technique obscures surroundings, an effect similar to background blur people are accustomed to using on their desktops during video calls.

“Think of this trio as a digital cocoon for meetings in open spaces,” said Henry Levak, VP of Product, Logitech for Business. “Rally Board 65 uses 3D spatial mapping technology to focus on the action in the meeting, not outside distractions.”

Sensors within Rally Board 65 detect the presence of people so that IT teams can get accurate readings of how and when employees are using video spaces. These sensors also analyze environmental data like humidity, temperature, and CO2 levels, assign a room health score and later will provide a room energy score, then deliver recommendations to increase ventilation, take breaks, or reduce the number of seats in a room.

Insights are fed into Logitech Sync, a centralized platform for IT teams to get a bird’s eye view of their organization, drill down for details on specific room performance, and automatically book and release rooms.

Approach to Sustainability

Using our Design for Sustainability principles, Rally Board 65 was engineered to minimize its environmental impact, using up to 41%** next-life plastics, low-carbon aluminum, recycled fabrics, and FSC-certified packaging.

Environmental benefits go beyond physical design. The radar system in Rally Board 65 allows the device to automatically switch to a lower power state when no one is in the space–a function that can significantly reduce the power consumption of customers’ commercial buildings.

Pricing and availability

Rally Board 65 will be available beginning May 2025 for $6,999 through authorized distributors and resellers, and on logitech.com.

Occupancy, room health, and energy sensing capabilities are also available in a standalone device, Logitech Spot.
