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.

  • SYSTANE PRO Preservative-Free (PF) is the longest lasting dry eye drop in the SYSTANE portfolio1
  • SYSTANE PRO PF is a one-of-a-kind multi-dose preservative-free triple action formula that hydrates, restores and protects all types of dry eyes1
  • SYSTANE PRO PF will be showcased at SECO 2025 as the latest addition to the SYSTANE line of products, the #1 global consumer brand of artificial tears2

Alcon (SIX/NYSE: ALC), the global leader in eye care dedicated to helping people see brilliantly, today announced the U.S. launch of SYSTANE® PRO Preservative-Free (PF) as the latest over-the-counter eye drop in the company’s dry eye portfolio. SYSTANE PRO PF is the longest lasting eye drop in the SYSTANE portfolio with a unique triple action, preservative-free formula for the temporary relief of burning and irritation due to dryness of the eye.1

Dry eye disease is one of the most common ocular surface disorders, affecting an estimated 45.5 million people in the United States and 1.5 billion globally.3 Developed exclusively to offer dry eye symptom relief, SYSTANE PRO PF is a one-of-a-kind formula that works to provide sustained hydration, restore tear film stability and protect against further irritation of dry eyes.

“We are proud to introduce SYSTANE PRO PF, the first and only multi-dose preservative-free triple action formula with hyaluronate, nano-sized lipids and HP-Guar that support the active ingredient giving patients long-lasting relief from the symptoms of dry eye,” said Terry Kim, MD, Chief Medical Officer and Head of Global Medical Safety, Alcon. “This is another example of how Alcon is bringing innovation to the SYSTANE portfolio to address the needs of dry eye patients.”

Patients with dry eyes often experience symptoms when moisture retention and tear stability are impacted by a variety of factors including aging, environment and digital device use.4 The unique formulation of SYSTANE PRO PF works to deliver long-lasting dry eye symptom relief for all types of dry eyes.1

“As an Eye Care Professional and global dry eye expert, I know that patients should benefit from the design of a triple action preservative-free formula that includes hyaluronate to address all types of dry eye,” said Dr. Selina McGee, Founder and Chief Optometrist of Bespoke Vision in Edmond, Oklahoma. “SYSTANE PRO PF provides hydration and protection of the ocular surface and can also stabilize the lipid layer of the tear film to reduce evaporation and provide lasting dry eye relief for my patients.”

The launch begins in the U.S. this month and will extend to additional markets in 2026. SYSTANE PRO PF will be featured at the SECO International meeting this week in Atlanta, Georgia.
