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.

BellaSeno Successfully Completes Two Clinical Trials with Novel, Resorbable Breast Implants

  • One-year follow-up data confirm favorable safety profile of BellaSeno´s scaffolds compared to silicone implants
  • Company plans expansion to primary breast augmentation and lumpectomy

Leipzig, Germany/ Brisbane, Australia, January 14, 2025BellaSeno GmbH, an ISO 13485-certified medtech company developing resorbable scaffolds using additive manufacturing technologies, today announced that all 19 breast scaffold patients enrolled in 2022 in an Australian breast augmentation revision trial have successfully completed a one-year follow-up without any major scaffold-related complications or scaffold removals. In addition, in a parallel Australian clinical trial, 7 pectus excavatum patients have successfully passed one-year follow-up. The trials are the first-ever implant trials using a novel approach combining polycaprolactone (PCL) scaffolds, ultimately resulting in a fully resorbed implant and natural tissue. The data show that it is possible to replace silicone implants in breast augmentation with alternatives offering improved safety and quality of life.

The trials are sponsored, single-arm, open, mono-centric, interventional, prospective clinical investigation studies in patients requiring breast augmentation revisions or surgical pectus excavatum correction. Primary endpoint is post-operative device safety, secondary endpoints is post-operative patient safety and post-operative device performance (QOL, volume replacement).

The one-year assessment confirms a very favorable safety profile of BellaSeno´s resorbable soft tissue implants. No major complications such as capsular contracture, calcifications, oil cysts, infections, tissue necrosis, or wound healing issues were observed. No scaffold removals or replacements were necessary, and no scaffold-related complications were observed in any patients six months post-surgery.

The one-year data review by the Independent Data Safety Monitoring Committee stated that all adverse events were within the expected range of complications for removal / replacement surgeries. The Clinical Investigators reported higher patient satisfaction with breasts and quality of life associated with BellaSeno´s scaffolds compared to baseline (i.e. silicone implants). There was high acceptability; patients were pain-free and did not report awareness of the scaffold in situ after twelve months. Identical findings were made in the one-year follow up in pectus excavatum patients.

“This is a very encouraging one-year clinical outcome,” said Mohit Chhaya, CEO of BellaSeno. “The data confirm that our resorbable scaffolds do not only meet the desired safety criteria but also show an improvement of patients´ quality of life. We now have a very strong clinical data set to initiate a pivotal study of our resorbable breast scaffolds in the U.S. and Europe. We will also expand the use of our scaffolds to primary breast augmentation and lumpectomy and also provide a final two-year follow-up next year.”
