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.

JSR Corporation/Inpria Corporation and Lam Research Enter Cross Licensing and Collaboration Agreement to Advance Semiconductor Manufacturing



TOKYO, Sept 16, 2025, FREMONT, Calif., Sept 15, 2025 - (JCN Newswire) - JSR Corporation, a leading technology company focused on material innovation and the parent company of Inpria Corporation, a metal oxide photoresist solution provider, Lam Research Corp. (Nasdaq: LRCX), a global leader in semiconductor fabrication equipment and services, today announced that JSR/Inpria and Lam have entered into a non-exclusive cross-licensing and collaboration agreement to advance leading-edge semiconductor manufacturing. The partnership is intended to accelerate the industry’s transition to next-generation patterning, including dry resist technology for EUV lithography, and advance the development of next-generation materials for atomic layer etching and deposition processes.

The agreement capitalizes on JSR/Inpria’s innovative semiconductor materials, including metal oxide solutions and Lam’s deep capabilities in deposition, etch and EUV patterning, including Aether®, Lam’s ground-breaking dry resist equipment and process technology that reduces the cost and complexity of creating the intricate patterns required for chips for artificial intelligence (AI) and high-performance computing (HPC).

The companies will collaborate to integrate JSR/Inpria’s patterning resists and films with Lam’s etch and dry resist deposition technologies. Lam and JSR/Inpria will also work together to expand innovation in several areas to support chipmakers as they scale in the AI era, including research and development related to metal oxide resists, high NA EUV patterning for advanced nodes, and other advanced films for next-generation patterning. In addition, leveraging JSR’s recent acquisition of Yamanaka Hutech Corporation, Lam and JSR plan to explore on new precursor materials and processes for advanced atomic layer deposition and etch solutions.

“At JSR, we are committed to advancing cutting edge materials to enable our customers’ most demanding technology roadmaps,” said Toru Kimura, senior officer, JSR Corporation. “By combining JSR and Inpria’s materials expertise with Lam’s strengths in deposition, etch, and dry resist technologies, we aim to accelerate solutions for EUV lithography – including high NA – and support the industry to scale efficiently for the new AI era.

“By richly complementing Lam’s proven atomic layer deposition and etch capabilities with JSR’s deep expertise in advanced patterning materials, this collaboration enables us to accelerate innovation at a time of rising semiconductor complexity,” said Vahid Vahedi, chief technology and sustainability officer, Lam Research. “This includes driving new low-NA and high-NA EUV patterning materials and metal oxide resists and providing greater access to Aether dry resist technology.”

Inpria and Lam have also agreed to dismiss all claims against each other in the litigation Inpria v. Lam Research (Case 1:22cv01359) in the District Court of Delaware and all related inter partes review (IPR) proceedings.
