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.

Entelecheia Rolls-Out Its New Patented Mobile App “Crosspass” For Sending Passwords and Text Notes – Peer-To-Peer and Encrypts End-To-End

Entelecheia Rolls-Out Its New Patented Mobile App "Crosspass" For Sending Passwords and Text Notes - Peer-To-Peer and Encrypts End-To-End
Crosspass takes a unique approach by requiring that users exchange short verification codes (PINs). These codes facilitate negotiating a symmetric encryption key and authenticating the communicating parties.

Lewes, Delaware - September 25, 2023 - The digital age has brought about great advancements in communication. Unfortunately, it has created an environment for hackers, malware and ransomists. For many years, it was the same old encryption methods with slight variants. Along comes Entelecheia Inc. with its newly patented brilliant security App Crosspass. It no doubt sends a wake-up call throughout this industry sector. Crosspass is the first secure end-to-end encryption solution that fits well with regular email. Simply include the access code of the note in the body an email message. The App personifies encryption that works naturally with email communication flows. Competing services based on sharing URLs are subject to JavaScript backdoors.

The Crosspass server, unlike servers supporting Instant Messengers, does not broker public keys. Consequently, user’s devices need to be online at the time of the transfer in order to communicate peer to peer. Because mobile phones are almost always online either through Wi-Fi or Cellular Data, Crosspass is designed as a mobile app.

The Crosspass server never sees user passwords or private notes. It relays blobs of data between two phones, but it cannot decrypt them. Also, it does not hold any encryption keys of users (no public, private, symmetric, or Diffie-Hellman shares). If the Crosspass server is compromised, the perpetrator must guess an equivalent of 11 coin flips in sequence in order to MITM a single exchange. Other server-based encryption apps could MITM without difficulty by giving out spurious cryptographic keys.

Some Crosspass features:

  • E2EE: One end is the sender’s mobile phone, and the other end is the recipient’s mobile phone. The encryption scheme is based on the OPAQUE protocol.
  • Text Notes: When users need to send more than just a password, they can use the text note option. For instance, they can use it for sending credit cards or bank account information.
  • Brute Force Attacks: The API server (a) does not keep any hashed passwords and (b) the app limits attempts to retrieve the password so that even it could not brute-force the PIN.
  • Impersonation Attacks: The app does not rely on receiving a recipient’s public key from the server. Therefore, a MITM who does not know the PIN cannot impersonate the recipient.
  • Free To Receive: It is always free to receive the passwords and notes which users send, so that the process has no barriers for recipients. Users can send three passwords for free. After that there is a one-time fee of $1 to continue sending.
  • Anonymous: Crosspass does not ask users for their phone numbers or email addresses. On the sender’s side only, it uses Push Notifications and has in-app purchases via App Store on iOS and Google Play on Android.


Crosspass helps communicate various types of confidential data:

  • Driving License numbers
  • Social Security numbers
  • Public keys
  • API credentials
  • Credit card numbers
  • Bank account numbers


With Crosspass, there is no login, no email or phone numbers required. Only a 4-digit PIN to secure a note, which like OTP can be used by someone only once. After the transfer, the note is deleted on the sender’s side and remains on the recipient’s phone for one day.
