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.

Solidion Technology’s Lithium-Sulfur Batteries on a Launch Pad to Accelerate the Takeoff of the eVTOL Aircraft Industry

DAYTON, Ohio, March 06, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Solidion Technology, Inc. (Solidion), an advanced battery technology solutions provider, began trading on NASDAQ (ticker symbol “STI”) on February 5, 2024. Solidion is the merged entity between Honeycomb Battery Company (HBC, Dayton, Ohio) and Nubia Brand International Co., a special purpose acquisition company (SPAC), based in Dallas, Texas.

For those who envision taking an air taxi to go from Manhattan to JFK Airport or from the San Francisco Airport to San Jose, California, without having to endure traffic jams or inhale carbon monoxide en route, this vision of the future will come true sooner than expected.

Electric vertical takeoff and landing (eVTOL) aircraft is the next urban transportation technology breakthrough. “There are 288 companies in Electric Vertical Takeoff and Landing Aircraft”1. At the heart of an eVTOL aircraft is a heavy battery pack. The amount of energy that can be stored in a battery pack with a reduced mass must be significantly increased before the eVTOL industry can literally take off.

Industry experts agree that “eVTOL aircraft needs a battery system with a gravimetric energy density > 400 Wh/kg”2. For an air taxi to carry more passengers, a battery cell energy density higher than 450 or even 500 Wh/kg will be required.

Lithium-sulfur (Li-S) batteries are currently the only practical energy storage solution capable of delivering such a high energy density (theoretically >600 Wh/kg) to power the transition to electric air mobility.

The Solidion technical team began development of Li-S batteries in 2010. Solidion has built the most complete IP (including 100+ US patents and numerous international patents on Li-S batteries) and essential technologies for fully commercializing these ultra-high energy batteries. These technologies, covering protected lithium metal anode, quasi-solid or solid-state electrolyte and separator, graphene-enabled cathode, and innovative battery cell-to-pack designs, position Solidion to be a global leader in high-energy batteries for air mobility.

The same solid-state lithium-sulfur batteries have the potential to revolutionize the ground transportation with their inherent safety and doubled the range on a single charge, given the same battery weight.

Solidion welcomes the opportunities to form alliances with strategic partners from various industries; together we can accelerate the time-to-market of lithium-sulfur batteries and accelerate the takeoff of the eVTOL industry.

About Solidion Technology, Inc.

Headquartered in Dallas, Texas with pilot production facilities in Dayton, Ohio, Solidion’s core business includes manufacturing of battery materials and components, as well as development and production of next-generation batteries for energy storage systems and electric vehicles for ground, air, and sea transportation. Recognized as a global IP leader in both the high-capacity anode and the high-energy solid-state battery, Solidion is uniquely positioned to offer two lines of battery products: (i) advanced anode materials (ready for production expansion); and (ii) three classes of solid-state batteries, including Silicon-rich all-solid-state lithium-ion cells (Gen 1), anodeless lithium metal cells (Gen 2), and lithium-sulfur cells (Gen 3), all featuring an advanced polymer- or polymer/inorganic composite-based solid electrolyte that is process-friendly. Solidion’s solid-state batteries can be manufactured at scale using current lithium-ion cell production facilities; this feature enables fastest time-to-market of safe solid-state batteries. Solidion batteries are designed to deliver significantly extended EV range, improved battery safety, lower cost per KWh, fastest time-to-market, and next-gen cathodes (potential to replace expensive nickel and cobalt with sulfur (S) and other more abundant elements).
