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.

Agiliti Introduces New Line of Stretcher Support Surfaces

Innovative foam support surface technology helps enhance patient comfort and reduce risk of surface contamination in the emergency and perioperative departments

Agiliti, a leading manufacturer and provider of medical device solutions to the U.S. healthcare industry, today announced the launch of its new NP Line™ of stretcher support surfaces clinically engineered for safer patient care.

“Stretcher pads are among the most used pieces of medical equipment in Emergency and Perioperative Departments and subject to rapid wear and tear,” said Tim McCarty, General Manager of Beds and Therapeutic Support Surfaces at Agiliti. “We designed the NP Line of stretcher support surfaces with features to help improve patient comfort, reduce the risk of contamination and offer customers a highly durable surface option in their highest-volume environments.”

Compatible with the majority of acute care stretchers, the three non-powered support surfaces from Agiliti feature a breathable, four-way stretch top cover fabric and RF-welded seams for enhanced durability and less risk of microbial infiltration.

The NP Line includes the following products:

  • NP Adjust ST™ which features self-adjusting foam filled air cells that respond to patient weight and movement. This helps promote immersion, pressure redistribution and comfort.
  • NP Trio ST™ which features three layers of foam and a sloped heel zone to support varying pressure redistribution needs.
  • NP Duo ST™ which features two layers of foam to provide consistent support from head to heel. The top layer of Visco foam is softer while the firmer bottom layer adds stability and prevents bottoming out.

The NP Adjust ST and NP Trio ST also feature an exclusive CoreShield™ layer to protect internal components from contamination and a layer of CuPro™ copper- and gel-infused foam to help enhance microclimate by dissipating heat and moisture.

Research published by Agiliti shows that compromised surfaces pose nearly six times more risk for cross-contamination to patients. The NP Line is the latest addition to the company’s portfolio of support surface technologies designed for more advanced care across multiple clinical settings. Agiliti also provides a range of clinical services and tools to help providers increase the lifespan of the surfaces they already have, including mattress inspection and audit services that help ensure support surfaces remain in top, patient-ready condition.
