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.

Geeky News Reveals the Future of 3D Mapping: ConceptFusion

By: IssueWire

Surrey, United Kingdom Dec 1, 2023 (Issuewire.com) - Geeky News, a leading technology and lifestyle journal, is proud to announce the publication of its new article. Titled "Unveiling the Future of 3D Mapping," the article explores the untapped potential of simultaneous localisation and mapping (SLAM) in advancing 3D mapping. It also introduces ConceptFusion, a new approach to creating enriched 3D maps with semantic information.

In this article, the author delves into the foundation of SLAM. It discusses its evolution from mapping environments in 2D to the more sophisticated realm of 3D mapping. Using sensor data and computational algorithms, SLAM allows robots to understand their environment in real time. It helps robots perceive, navigate, and create detailed maps.

The author highlights the diverse applications of SLAM. These range from robotics navigation and augmented reality to autonomous vehicles and industrial automation. One of the standout features of SLAM is its ability to generate intricate three-dimensional maps. It provides a nuanced understanding of spatial relationships and object placement within an environment. 

This ability has been used extensively in industries like construction and mining. The article mentions how companies like Exyn Technologies use SLAM in their 3D mapping drones for the mining industry.

The article introduces two notable contributors that have reshaped the landscape of intelligent robotics: CLIP and DINO. CLIP, a multimodal AI model developed by OpenAI, enhances the understanding of natural language instructions or descriptions in intelligent robotics. It enables the annotation and semantic labelling of SLAM-generated maps, contributing to more natural human-robot interactions.

On the other hand, DINO, a self-supervised learning approach for vision transformers, empowers robots with improved visual perception. By incorporating DINO's learned feature representations into SLAM systems, robots improve their understanding of the visual aspects of the environment. This leads to more accurate mapping and self-localisation.

The article then introduces the next step in the field of 3D mapping: ConceptFusion. This approach integrates advancements in language, image, and audio domains. It builds upon traditional SLAM techniques. ConceptFusion integrates the features extracted from models like CLIP and DINO. That enables the creation of enriched 3D maps with semantic information. It allows robots to understand and interact with their environments in a versatile and open-ended manner.

Through ConceptFusion, robots are expected to exhibit zero-shot reasoning capabilities. They'll be able to comprehend complex instructions involving multimodal data. And, they'll also be better handle tasks such as object retrieval and recognition. The fusion of CLIP, DINO, and SLAM in ConceptFusion promises significant advancements in the capabilities of intelligent robotic systems.
