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.

Belden Introduces Innovative TIA-Compliant Small-Diameter Category 6A Cable

Fit more copper in tight spaces to match rising bandwidth demands with next-generation Category 6A cable.

Belden Inc. (NYSE: BDC), a leading global provider of complete connection solutions, today announced the launch of its 10GXM13 Category 6A Cable. Building on Belden’s leadership in the smart infrastructure space, this 0.230” (5.84 mm) cable sets new standards for small-diameter Category 6A cables. The 10GXM13 cable delivers enhanced channel performance and 100-meter lengths that meet full Telecommunications Industry Association (TIA) compliance.

The drive to digitize increases demand for more cables in today’s buildings. With its small diameter and filler-free design, this next-gen Category 6A cable creates new possibilities. Organizations can now deploy 10Gig links with a cable that is nearly as small as a Category 6 cable, allowing for larger bundle sizes and the ability to upgrade old Category 6 links to Category 6A and deploy more copper without running new conduit.

The 10GXM13 cable makes better connections possible and lets organizations build the infrastructure that maximizes value.

  • Space- and cost-saving: A 0.230” (5.84mm) outside diameter unlocks new installation opportunities while reducing conduit expenditures.
  • Easy deployment and termination: Eliminating filler simplifies termination, and pairing with REVConnect® Connectivity shortens the time to go live.
  • Less waste: A filler-free design means less material wasted and installed for more sustainable building practices.

We know that data is currency – and the 10GXM13 Category 6A Cable is an important component of the complete connection solutions that help bring our clients’ data infrastructure into alignment,” said Joshua Goyke, Solution Line Manager, Healthcare. “The smart buildings industry faces steadily increasing bandwidth demands, which challenge them to fit more copper into tight spaces. With our innovative filler-free design, we’ve created our 10GXM13 Category 6A Cable to achieve an outside diameter that is significantly smaller than traditional 0.250” Category 6A cables. This breakthrough makes these cables the smallest and easiest-to-deploy Category 6A available, eliminating slow speeds and maximizing uptime for smart building networks.”

These cables are designed for a wide range of markets and applications. 10GXM13 Category 6A Cables are ideal for commercial real estate, data centers, government, healthcare, higher education, hospitality, and stadium and venue sectors.
