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.

Ebenbuild Contributes Cutting-Edge Digital Lung Simulations to Pulmonary Fibrosis Drug Development

  • First-ever use of Ebenbuild’s Twinhale technology  in idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis lung models
  • Trial results published in Nature Communications

Munich, Germany – April 9, 2025 -- Ebenbuild, a company developing personalized, AI-enabled digital twins of lungs to support clinical decisions and digital clinical trials, today announced its contribution to a pioneering study published today in Nature Communications. The article titled Preclinical concept studies showing advantage of an inhaled anti-CTGF/CCN2 protein for pulmonary fibrosis treatment (DOI:10.1038/s41467-025-58568-x) highlights the potential of inhaled therapeutics for treating idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF), a devastating lung disease with limited treatment options. Ebenbuild’s advanced digital lung simulation software called Twinhale played a critical role in demonstrating the broad distribution of aerosol deposition in both healthy and IPF-affected lungs, providing key insights in addition to the clinical safety data (NCT05473533) of the novel inhaled Anticalin® protein PRS-220 developed by Pieris Pharmaceuticals (now Pavella Therapeutics, Inc.)

In the study, Ebenbuild’s pioneering digital twin technology Twinhale was used, a first in IPF patients. Computer tomography (CT) data from the Open Source Imaging Consortium (OSIC) database were analyzed and patient-specific models were generated for two selected cases, using available spirometry and physiological data. The influence of fibrotic tissue was also modeled. The digital twins simulating normal and diseased lung structure and function were then used to study the delivery and distribution of PRS-220 within the virtual lung environments. By leveraging these high-resolution digital twins of the human lung, Ebenbuild’s team provided detailed, precise predictions of aerosol deposition patterns. The simulations revealed how PRS-220 achieves effective penetration and coverage in fibrotic lung tissue, offering a significant advantage over traditional systemic treatments.

"Working with Ebenbuild allowed us to simulate drug deposition in diseased human lungs without performing extensive clinical studies,” said Vanessa Neiens, Biology Lead, Pieris Pharmaceuticals (now Pavella Therapeutics, Inc.).

“The collaboration underscores the transformative potential of our in silico technologies in drug development and exemplifies how digital tools can bridge the gap between preclinical research and clinical success,” said Dr. Jonas Biehler, CTO of Ebenbuild. “By creating precise, patient-specific in silico lung models, we were able to demonstrate how inhaled PRS-220 can target diseased tissue effectively, paving the way for more efficient therapies for IPF patients.”

“Our digital twin technology integrates advanced computational fluid dynamics, tissue mechanics and anatomical precision to simulate drug transport and deposition in the entire lung,” said Dr. Kei Müller, CEO of Ebenbuild. “This approach can be tailored to specific disease indications and not only accelerates preclinical research but also enhances the translatability of results to human applications, de-risking the development of innovative therapies such as PRS-220.”

About Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis (IPF)

Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis (IPF) is a chronic lung disease that causes irreversible scarring, leading to progressive loss of lung function and difficulty breathing. A defining feature is its patchy, uneven distribution—fibrotic and healthy regions coexist, creating irregular airflow and complicating both treatment and drug delivery. IPF affects around 3 million people globally, with 3–9 new cases per 100,000 annually in Europe and North America. There is no cure, but approved antifibrotic medications can slow progression. Ongoing research aims to deepen understanding of the disease and enable more precisely targeted therapies.
