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.

DECO Unveils World’s First mmWave-Based Digital Isolation Technology, Ushering in a New Era of High-Speed, High-Voltage Communication

By: Get News

DECO Integration Technology Co., Ltd. (“DECO”), a Shenzhen-based high-tech enterprise, has officially released the world’s first digital isolation chip based on near-field millimeter-wave (mmWave) communication. Designed for ultra-short-distance, high-speed transmission, the chip achieves up to 5Gbps data rate under electrical isolation levels exceeding 30kV, marking a significant leap in digital isolation technology.

High Frequency Meets High Voltage: Unlocking New Possibilities with mmWave Isolation

For decades, digital isolation chips have relied on traditional solutions such as optocouplers, capacitive coupling, or miniature transformers. These approaches often struggle to meet the increasing demands for higher data rates, stronger interference immunity, higher voltage tolerance, and more compact system integration. Common limitations include low bandwidth, limited isolation voltage, poor EMI performance, and complex packaging.

DECO introduces an industry-first: applying ultra-short-range mmWave communication within chip packaging to enable wireless isolation through standard insulating materials. Leveraging on-chip antennas and dielectric coupling, the chip naturally withstands over 100 kV while delivering a 5GHz switching frequency, sub-20ps latency, and up to 6.25Gbps data rate. This architecture breaks the long-standing trade-off between high frequency, high voltage, and low latency—without depending on advanced semiconductor processes—offering cost-effective module packages.

While mmWave technology has traditionally been used in radar, telecom, and sensing, DECO is the first to integrate it into digital isolation chip architecture. The solution supports standard insulation materials and ultra-wide temperature ranges, enables multi-directional integration, and facilitates millimeter-scale antenna coupling—expanding the design space for next-generation electronic systems. For the electronics industry, this represents a fundamental shift from traditional physical-layer interconnects to fully reconfigurable system architectures.

In new energy vehicles (NEVs), where motor control, high-voltage charging, and power conversion place extreme demands on isolation reliability, DECO’s mmWave wireless isolation technology ensures stable performance under harsh electrical and thermal conditions, enhancing system safety and integration density.

In industrial automation and advanced manufacturing, as high-speed inter-module data transmission becomes more frequent, traditional isolators increasingly fall short in bandwidth, latency, and integration flexibility. DECO’s solution offers lower latency, higher switching speeds, and better power density, empowering modular and high-performance industrial system design.

In consumer electronics and AI data centers, the rapid rise of third-generation semiconductors such as GaN and SiC has fueled demand for higher voltage operation, ultra-miniaturization, and high-efficiency power conversion. DECO’s mmWave isolation solution provides a secure high-voltage communication layer while enabling extremely compact, high-power-density designs—ideal for AI server power modules, wearable electronics, and slim mobile devices.

Market research estimates the global digital isolation sector now exceeds RMB 40 billion annually. DECO’s mmWave wireless isolation architecture is well aligned with this trajectory, and is rapidly emerging as a key enabler in the evolution of next-generation isolation frameworks.

Shenzhen Innovation, Global Impact

As a Shenzhen-based high-tech “Little Giant” enterprise, DECO has built a robust global patent portfolio, with 238 patents filed and 117 granted. The company focuses on mmWave wireless chips and system-level solutions, with a fully self-owned IP chain. DECO has already achieved mass commercial deployment in LED displays and industrial control systems—advancing the global semiconductor landscape with homegrown innovation.

DECO’s mmWave wireless isolation chip has successfully passed rigorous testing with multiple tier-one partners and is now entering mass production. It is expected to be widely adopted in automotive-grade electronics, industrial modules, and next-generation consumer devices.

Looking ahead, DECO plans to continue investing in mmWave wireless innovation, building a comprehensive “connectivity + isolation + integration” technology roadmap. The company aims to deliver lighter, faster, and more reliable system-level wireless solutions—bringing Shenzhen’s technological strength to a global stage across diverse industrial applications.
