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.

Quanterix Showcases Innovation Powered by Simoa® at AD/PD with Customer Research and New Dried Blood Spot Extraction Kit

Simoa® technology highlighted in more than 80 posters and oral presentations demonstrating its impact on neurodegenerative disease research

Quanterix Corporation (NASDAQ: QTRX), a company fueling scientific discovery through ultrasensitive biomarker detection, today announced the inclusion of a new dried blood spot extraction (DBS) kit as part of their industry-leading Simoa® assay kits at the International Conference on Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s Diseases and Related Neurological Disorders (AD/PD) in Vienna, Austria. This new extraction kit enables researchers to measure low-concentration biomarkers from dried blood spots using a more cost-effective and less invasive method.

Current Alzheimer’s and neurodegenerative disease tests often require complex sample handling, repeated collections, and offer limited accessibility, particularly in remote or resource-limited settings, due to their reliance on venous blood draws. To address this, Quanterix, leveraging research from its collaboration with the DROP-AD Project at the University of Gothenburg, has developed a downstream DBS extraction kit that includes buffers and a sample preparation protocol, enabling accurate and sensitive measurement of neuro biomarkers from a DBS matrix. Validation studies show that DBS samples from two different devices tested with Simoa ALZpath p-Tau 217 and the Simoa extraction kit demonstrated correlation to venous in simulated CSF spiked samples of 0.75 to 0.86. This advancement lays critical groundwork for the development of scalable, minimally invasive diagnostic tools that can be deployed more broadly and equitably across populations.

“Our new dried blood spot (DBS) extraction kit represents a major step forward in making biomarker testing more accessible,” said Masoud Toloue, PhD, Chief Executive Officer of Quanterix. “By simplifying sample collection, DBS has the potential to expand participation in Alzheimer’s research and clinical trials—especially among under-represented populations. This advancement will deepen our ability to understand the disease and its progression across diverse communities.”

Additionally, Quanterix’s Simoa platform will be featured in over 80 posters, presentations, and sessions at AD/PD, demonstrating its significant role in advancing neurodegenerative disease research. For a full list of research available at AD/PD, please visit AD/PD’s event website.

About Quanterix

From discovery to diagnostics, Quanterix’s ultrasensitive biomarker detection is fueling breakthroughs only made possible through its unparalleled sensitivity and flexibility. The Company’s Simoa® technology has delivered the gold standard for earlier biomarker detection in blood, serum or plasma, with the ability to quantify proteins that are far lower than the Level of Quantification (LoQ). Its industry-leading precision instruments, digital immunoassay technology and CLIA-certified Accelerator laboratory have supported research that advances disease understanding and management in neurology, oncology, immunology, cardiology and infectious disease. Quanterix has been a trusted partner of the scientific community for nearly two decades, powering research published in more than 3,200 peer-reviewed journals.
