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.

Salk Institute Study Shows FloraWorks' CBN Reverses Age-Related Cognitive Decline

By: Newsfile

Breakthrough findings highlight TruCBN(TM) as a potential therapeutic for brain aging and cognitive health.

Portland, Oregon--(Newsfile Corp. - July 7, 2025) - In a groundbreaking study published in Redox Biology, researchers at the Salk Institute for Biological Studies have demonstrated that Cannabinol (CBN)-specifically FloraWorks' high-purity TruCBN™-can prevent and/or reverse cognitive decline in a preclinical model of accelerated aging. The findings position CBN as a leading candidate in the development of safe, natural therapeutics for age-related brain and metabolic dysfunction.

The study, led by Dr. Pamela Maher's team at the Salk Institute, builds on earlier research identifying CBN's mitochondrial protective effects. In this new work, aged mice treated with TruCBN™ experienced significant improvements in memory, learning, synaptic function, and energy metabolism.

"While our cell culture studies suggested that CBN might be effective in vivo, it was really exciting to actually see these beneficial effects in aging mice which indicates that further studies with CBN are warranted," said Dr. Pamela Maher, Research Professor, Salk Institute Cellular Neurobiology Laboratory.

FloraWorks supplied high-purity TruCBN™ for this study and contributed more than 40 cannabinoids for screening, though CBN emerged as the top performer based on efficacy, safety, and manufacturability.

"It was an honor to support this research," said Alleh Lindquist, CEO of FloraWorks. "Dr. Maher and her team are advancing critical insights into the biology of aging and cognitive decline."

Key Findings from the Study

  • Improved Cognitive Function: Spatial learning and memory significantly enhanced in aged mice, especially females.
  • Sex-Specific Metabolic Effects: CBN improved oxygen consumption and energy expenditure, indicating enhanced mitochondrial function, especially in females.
  • Neuroprotection: CBN upregulated markers of mitochondrial dynamics and energy production that declined with age.
  • Synaptic Restoration: CBN restored proteins essential for neuronal communication, including synaptophysin and PSD-95.

Strategic Implications

A global patent application, "Methods of Treating Neurodegenerative Diseases or Conditions," was filed jointly by the Salk Institute and FloraWorks. FloraWorks has exclusive worldwide rights to commercialize CBN-based therapies arising from this research.

In addition, U.S. Patent No. 12,281,091 B1 grants FloraWorks protection over its proprietary, scalable manufacturing process for TruCBN™, enabling cost-effective, pharmaceutical-grade production.

Advancing the Research

FloraWorks is actively partnering with leading research institutions to initiate translational studies aimed at evaluating TruCBN's impact on aging-related cognitive decline in humans.

"We're entering a new era in cannabinoid research-one that moves beyond general wellness into targeted therapeutic potential," said Dr. Matthew Roberts, translational scientist and member of FloraWorks' Scientific Advisory Board. "This study demonstrates that CBN does more than support sleep quality-it modulates key pathways linked to aging, neurodegeneration, and resilience. The translational implications are profound."
