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.

Longcross Park is a significant step on the journey of dynamic continuous improvement enabling organisations to meet aggressive sustainability targets

With Longcross data centre we’re reaffirming our commitment to ultimately deliver zero carbon data centres in the UK. We’re on a journey of dynamic continuous improvement using the latest innovations.”
— Roy Gibbens, Executive Director, Sales & Marketing, Ark Data Centres
CORSHAM, UK, July 21, 2021 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Ark Data Centres is proud to announce that its Longcross facility, due to come onstream in 2023, will deliver the definitive blueprint for socially responsible data centres through the deployment of the latest innovations and future-proofed technologies – enabling organisations to reduce their emissions and meet their own sustainability targets.

With 2021 the year when the world is looking to the UK for climate change leadership via the G7 summit and the upcoming COP26 Climate Change Conference in Glasgow in early November, Ark is affirming its commitment to drive towards zero carbon data centres in the UK. 2021 will see national and industry targets flow down to the public sector and individual businesses. Ark’s Longcross data centre will enable organisations to make sustainability commitments that they will be able to achieve within the aggressive timeframes set.

Longcross data centre is being designed from inception to minimise carbon emissions and dramatically reduce waste and water consumption. Its back-up generators, which in the data centre industry have traditionally been powered by diesel, will be replaced with gas generators that will have an immediate impact on reducing Nitrogen oxide (NOx) levels which have become dangerously high in city areas, impacting on asthma sufferers and even mortality rates.

From day one the generators are future-proofed and ready for hydrogen as the UK grid transitions. Eventually using 100% hydrogen will provide only energy, heat and water vapour – which will deliver zero CO2 and no harmful emissions. Longcross will be air cooled delivering the lowest PUE (Power Usage Effectiveness) – the ratio that shows how efficiently a computer data center uses energy – in the industry.

The Longcross site will incorporate extensive facilities for electric vehicles for employees and visitors. It will also feature ‘living walls’ of plants extensively around the park to absorb CO2 and offer a pleasant and attractive working environment.

Roy Gibbens, Executive Director, Sales & Marketing at Ark Data Centres said, “With Longcross data centre we’re reaffirming our commitment to ultimately deliver zero carbon data centres in the UK. We’re on a journey of dynamic continuous improvement utilising the latest innovations – and also future-proofing the facility so that it’s ready to take advantage of developments such as the move to a hydrogen-mix, then full hydrogen grid. In this way our customers can be assured that they can also commit to and meet their own aggressive sustainability promises and emissions targets, which will become increasingly important to regulators, investors and the public.”

The Longcross Park data centre is located in Chertsey, south west of the capital and is one of Ark’s four new facilities in the London area. It will join Alliance Park in W3; Meridian Park in N9 and Union Park in Hayes. Longcross Park is part of the Enterprise M3 Enterprise Zone and is one of the first commercial developments on the 300-acre Longcross Garden Village which will eventually comprise around 1,700 homes, community facilities including a new school, and an 85-acre country park. Longcross Film and TV studios, another technology innovator and rumored to be the resting place of the Star Wars Millennium Falcon, will be a neighbour.
