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.

AMD Expands Ryzen Embedded Processor Family for High-Performance Industrial Automation, Machine Vision and Edge Applications

NUREMBERG, Germany, Nov. 14, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- AMD (NASDAQ: AMD) today announced at Smart Production Solutions 2023 the AMD Ryzen™ Embedded 7000 Series processor family, optimized for the high-performance requirements of industrial markets. By combining “Zen 4” architecture and integrated Radeon graphics, Ryzen Embedded 7000 Series processors deliver performance and functionality not previously offered for the embedded market. With its expanded features and integration, Ryzen Embedded 7000 Series processors are ideal for a wide range of embedded applications, including industrial automation, machine vision, robotics and edge servers.

The Ryzen Embedded 7000 Series processor is the first embedded processor to use next-generation 5nm technology with a 7-year manufacturing availability commitment. The new embedded processor integrates AMD Radeon RDNA™ 2 graphics that eliminates the need for a discrete GPU for industrial applications. And because embedded applications require additional operating system software options, Ryzen Embedded 7000 Series processors include support for both Windows Server and Linux Ubuntu, on top of Windows 10 and Windows 11. Ryzen Embedded 7000 Series processors also include up to 12 high-performance “Zen 4” CPU cores, which combined with its integrated features and wide operating system choices, offers unparalleled ease of integration for system designers.

“Industrial application use cases are continuing to grow in complexity and sophistication and are driving the need for increased processing capabilities,” said Rajneesh Gaur, corporate vice president & general manager, Embedded Processors Group, AMD. “With the integration of key performance features and a scalable design, Ryzen Embedded 7000 Series processors are ideal for a broad range of applications from advanced robotics and instrumentation design to power control, video surveillance and more.”

“For embedded industrial applications, it is critical to provide differentiated and scalable offerings while still meeting power, performance and budget requirements,” said Kevin Krewell, principal analyst at TIRIAS Research. “The new AMD Ryzen Embedded 7000 Series is purpose-built for a wide spectrum of use-cases, making it an ideal choice for industrial applications in a market that will continue to see growth and diversity.”

“Advantech is excited to launch its AIMB-723 ATX motherboard. This is the first industrial-grade motherboard integrated with the AMD Socket AM5 chipset, enhancing the capabilities of industrial applications at the edge. The AIMB-723 delivers high computing performance as well as providing the scalability to support up to a three-slot discrete GPU card and an additional three-frame grabber card for machine vision applications. Powered by Ryzen™ 7000 Series processors, Advantech’s AIMB-723 industrial motherboard not only accelerates performance-demanding AOI applications but also caters to legacy requirements for PCI expansion, accommodating a wide range of communication protocols and I/O interfaces.”

-- Linda Tsai, Advantech President of Industrial IoT—Advantech

"ASRock Industrial, a longstanding AMD partner dedicated to intelligent co-creations, stands as the world's leading supplier of industrial motherboards and systems. We are thrilled to announce the groundbreaking Mini-ITX motherboard, IMB-A1002, powered by the AMD Ryzen™ Embedded 7000 Series processors with B650 chipset. By leveraging the power of the "Zen4" CPU core, AM5 socket, integrated AMD Radeon RDNA 2 graphics, DDR5 memory, and PCIe 5.0, we aim to bring edge performance to exceptional new heights, enabling customers to create leading embedded solutions across a wide range of AIoT applications."

-- Handsome Tzeng, President of ASRock Industrial

"Our products feature the latest AMD Ryzen Embedded 7000 Series processors, which excel in delivering exceptional productivity and graphics performance for industrial applications while remaining cost-effective. This product significantly enhances operational efficiency, particularly in areas such as machine vision, robotic arm control, and high-end medical imaging systems.
