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.

PITAKA Redefines iPhone 17 Cases with Fusion Weave – LightRipple and World’s First PitaTap™ Technology

By: Get News

Global mobile accessory innovator PITAKA today announced its latest Aramid Fiber iPhone 17 Series Cases at IFA 2025, earning multiple Innovation Awards from leading media outlets including SlashGear and BGR. With the debut of its revolutionary PitaTap™ technology, PITAKA once again redefines smartphone protection, seamlessly merging minimalist aesthetics with advanced material engineering.

Minimalist Innovation: The Ultra-Slim Case

The new Ultra-Slim Case is 1mm thick, delivering full coverage protection—without added bulk—while seamlessly shielding the Camera Control Button. Its standout feature is the world’s first PitaTap™ capacitive button, ingeniously embedded beneath the aramid fiber shell. This innovative layer enables precise touch and swipe control, maintaining the signature aramid texture while offering highly responsive tactile performance.

The case also introduces Fusion Weave – LightRipple, PITAKA’s next-generation weaving process that allows precise fiber control. The result is a refined rhombic texture, reminiscent of shimmering ripples on a lake—subtle, dynamic, and elegant. This natural aesthetic infuses technology with artistic expression, blending function and feeling, and transforming cold tech into a poetic, emotionally resonant experience.

Durable Protection: Aramid ProGuard Case

For users who demand maximum protection, PITAKA presents the Aramid ProGuard Case. Engineered with a unique arched design at all four corners, the case utilizes natural curvature to create an “airbag effect,” achieving certified military-grade drop resistance of up to 2.4 meters.

Despite its robust defense, the case retains a slim silhouette and PITAKA’s iconic woven surface—striking the perfect balance between strength, comfort, and style.

Complete Evolution: Aramid UltraGuard Case

The all-new Aramid UltraGuard Case features a proprietary composite of high-toughness Orca resin and aramid fiber, delivering a significant upgrade in material performance. This advanced construction functions like built-in armor for your device, doubling its impact resistance. By combining flexible TPU material with 3D full-wrap thermoforming technology, the case offers dual-layer protection—rigid exterior defense paired with flexible shock absorption. Its distinctive woven design, metal-textured buttons, and fully wrapped frame not only ensure comprehensive protection but also enhance the device’s premium look and feel.

Iconic Styles Return, Stunning New Colorways Debut

PITAKA’s iPhone 17 series cases carry forward the brand’s signature design while introducing a captivating new colorway — “Glints of Gold” — inspired by the play of light and shadow, capturing life’s unforgettable moments with artistic elegance:

  • Black/Grey – Timeless minimalism with a versatile, understated tone
  • Sunset – A signature blend of warmth and clarity
  • Moonrise – A deep, romantic hue inspired by twilight skies
  • Over the Horizon – A tribute to exploration and the spirit of freedom
  • Glints of Gold – A shimmering interplay of art and inspiration, reminiscent of rippling starlight

Global Release Information

The all-new PITAKA Ultra-Slim Case for the iPhone 17 Series has opened for pre-order on September 5, 2025, while the Aramid ProGuard and Aramid UltraGuard Cases will be available for pre-order starting September 10, 2025.
