About Cabling Installation & Maintenance:

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.

MACOM IMS 2025 Product Preview – Electronic Countermeasures

LOWELL, Mass., June 10, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- MACOM Technology Solutions Inc. (“MACOM”), a leading supplier of semiconductor products, today announced availability of a wideband front end module (FEM) covering 2 to 18 GHz. Ideal for electronic countermeasures (ECM) and phased array radar applications, the miniature multi-chip ENGSD00088 Transmit/Receive Module integrates a high power 3-stage Gallium Nitride (GaN) Power Amplifier (PA), a 3-stage Gallium Arsenide (GaAs) Low Noise Amplifier (LNA) and a transmit/receive (T/R) switch with a fail-safe antenna termination, all within a compact package.

The transmit path delivers 2.5 W typical saturated output power with power added efficiency (PAE) of 24%, along with 25 dB of large signal gain. The receive side provides 27 dB of gain with a low noise figure of 3.5 dB and 26 dBm output third order intercept point (OIP3). The receive channel can handle input powers up to +20 dBm with an option to add a limiter for additional protection input power handling.

Ideally suited for wideband phased array architectures, the ENGSD00088 offers high gain in both transmit and receive modes, minimizes board space and simplifies system design, while its high performance allows mission-critical reliability. The FEM will be on display at MACOM’s Booth 943 at the upcoming International Microwave Symposium (IMS) in San Francisco, CA from June 17 to 19, 2025. Additionally, information and sample requests are available here.
