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.

Alpha and Omega Semiconductor Introduces 25V MOSFET in DFN3.3x3.3 Source-Down Packaging that Meets Power Demands in AI Servers

Designed to support high-power density, state-of-the-art DFN3.3x3.3 Source-Down packaging features center gate technology for easier routing on the PCB

Alpha and Omega Semiconductor Limited (AOS) (Nasdaq: AOSL), a designer, developer, and global supplier of a broad range of discrete power devices, wide band gap power devices, power management ICs, and modules, today introduced its AONK40202 25V MOSFET in state-of-the-art DFN3.3x3.3 Source-Down packaging technology. Designed for high power density in DC-DC applications, the AONK40202 provides features that meet the requirements of AI servers and data center power distribution. In particular, its Source-Down packaging technology offers a larger source contact to the PCB, and its center gate pin layout allows easier routing on the PCB, so the gate driver connection can be minimized.

Designed for high power density in DC-DC applications, the AONK40202 provides features that meet the requirements of AI servers and data center power distribution.

Designed for high power density in DC-DC applications, the AONK40202 provides features that meet the requirements of AI servers and data center power distribution.

Offering outstanding current handling capabilities, the AONK40402 MOSFET’s DFN3.3x3.3 Source-Down packaging technology with clip enables continuous current capabilities up to 319A with a maximum junction temperature rated at 175°C. This provides significant potential for system-level improvements, such as better thermal management, enabling higher power density and greater efficiency.

“AONK40202, which utilizes advanced DFN3.3x3.3 Source-Down technology, offers a reduction in power losses and delivers better thermal performance compared to traditional DFN3.3x3.3 Drain-Down packaging solutions. The AONK40202, with its lower on-state resistance (RDS(on)) and enhanced thermal performance, provides designers with the advanced technologies necessary to utilize PCB space more effectively. These features and many more in the AONK40202 are specifically designed to meet the increasing power density demands of AI servers,” said Peter H. Wilson, Sr. Director of MOSFET product line at AOS.
