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.

By: via Business Wire

Global Leading Excipient Supplier to Highlight Innovations in Oral Disintegrating Tablets, Controlled Release Formulations, and Low-Nitrite Solutions

IFF (NYSE: IFF) Pharma Solutions will showcase its cutting-edge excipient technologies at CPHI Japan 2025. The IFF Pharma Solutions team will highlight its innovations in oral disintegrating tablets (ODTs), controlled-release formulations, and novel complex formulations at booth 5K-21, Tokyo Big Sight East Halls 4-6, April 9-11.

“IFF Pharma Solutions is committed to redefining drug delivery through material science innovation,” said Frank Zhao, commercial leader, IFF Pharma Solutions, Asia Pacific. “At CPHI Japan, we will showcase technologies designed to elevate patient outcomes while streamlining pharmaceutical production.”

As a global leading pharmaceutical excipient partner, IFF Pharma Solutions will highlight some of its latest innovations, including:

Oral Disintegrating Tablet (ODT) Solutions

  • The ODT market is expanding rapidly, requiring tablets that dissolve quickly for easy administration to children and elderly patients. Incorporating super disintegrants into ODT formulations is essential, as these agents enhance dissolution speed and improve patient compliance. Ac-Di-Sol®, a leading super disintegrant, offers equivalent disintegration efficacy to polyvinylpolypyrrolidone (PVPP).

Controlled Release (C) Portfolio

  • METHOCEL™ Hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC): Enables consistent and controlled delivery of medication, enhancing therapeutic efficacy and patient compliance through customizable HPMC.
  • ETHOCEL™ Ethylcellulose: Water-resistant barrier coatings for targeted drug delivery and taste masking in modified-release tablets.
  • POLYOX™ Polyethylene Oxide: High-swell matrices for osmotic delivery and abuse-deterrent systems, supporting osmotic pump technology and modified-release matrix formulations.

Low-Nitrite Solutions

  • As a low-nitrite microcrystalline cellulose solution, Avicel® PH LN reduces nitrosamine formation risks in oral solid dosages, ensuring compliance with Japan’s stringent regulatory standards.
  • IFF Pharma Solutions expands its low-nitrite excipient portfolio by introducing Low Nitrite METHOCEL™, tailored to help mitigate the risk of nitrosamine formation in drugs.

Combining its deep expertise in excipients, innovation capabilities, and regulatory services, IFF Pharma Solutions offers an integrated solutions platform for customer support at every step of their formulation journeys.
