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.

RAPT Therapeutics Names Lori Lyons-Williams Chair of the Company’s Board of Directors

SOUTH SAN FRANCISCO, Calif., Jan. 06, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- RAPT Therapeutics, Inc. (Nasdaq: RAPT), a clinical-stage, immunology-based biopharmaceutical company focused on discovering, developing and commercializing novel therapies for patients with inflammatory and immunological diseases, today announced the appointment of Lori Lyons-Williams as chair of its board of directors, succeeding William Rieflin, who stepped down from the board effective January 3, 2025. Mr. Rieflin will remain as a consultant for the company.

“We are pleased to welcome Lori as chair of the board,” said Brian Wong, M.D., Ph.D., President and CEO of RAPT. “In the four years that Lori has served as a board member, she has provided invaluable guidance based on her leadership experience driving strategic and commercial success in both biotech and pharmaceutical companies. We look forward to her increased involvement as we pursue late-stage development and potential commercialization in the field of inflammatory diseases. We also thank Bill for his nine years on our board providing steady and wise counsel.”

“It has been an honor and a pleasure to serve as chair of the RAPT board,” said Mr. Rieflin. “I have confidence in the board and the management team and believe that Lori has the skills and experience to help guide RAPT into the future.”

Ms. Lyons-Williams, an industry veteran with more than 20 years of experience spanning multinational pharmaceutical and emerging biotech companies, is President and CEO of Abdera Therapeutics, a biopharmaceutical company leveraging antibody engineering to design and develop new precision radiopharmaceuticals for cancer. Previously, Lori was president and chief operating officer of Neumora Therapeutics and earlier served as chief commercial officer of Dermira, a biopharmaceutical company focused on immunology and medical dermatology, until its acquisition by Eli Lilly. Before that, she spent 15 years at Allergan in roles of increasing responsibility, where she successfully launched numerous commercial products, including multiple indications of BOTOX®. Lori currently serves on the boards of directors of Abdera Therapeutics and Contineum Therapeutics (Nasdaq: CTNM); she joined the RAPT board of directors in 2021.

“I am excited to partner with Brian and his team as RAPT evolves as a company. I am particularly encouraged by the broad opportunity for RPT904 in food allergy and other allergic diseases as well as the promise and potential of the company’s CCR4-targeted drug candidates,” said Ms. Lyons-Williams. “I look forward to collaborating with my fellow board members as we continue to advance the company.”
