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.

Faro Health Secures $20 Million to Scale the Digital Transformation of Clinical Studies

Faro Health Inc., a cloud-computing company that is developing digital infrastructure for smart clinical trials, today announced $20 million in additional funding. The round was led by global venture capital firm General Catalyst with participation from previous investors Section 32, Polaris Partners, Zetta Ventures, and Northpond Ventures. General Catalyst Partner Elena Viboch will join Faro's Board of Directors. 

Designing and executing clinical trials has become increasingly complex. However, the tools to support these studies have not kept up. Protocols are still drafted as long-form documents and authors have no tools to evaluate their complexity or burden on patients. At the same time, the number of endpoints measured in a clinical study has grown by 27% over the past decade and patients are asked to undergo 44% more assessments, which can range from written data collection to a blood draw. This growth also shows no signs of slowing down. Existing tools for clinical study protocol development have not evolved to handle the growing complexity of the study data required to support market access, and there are no tools to support rapid translation of a protocol into the software required to operationalize a clinical trial. Faro helps simplify the complexity of modern clinical protocol development and execution. 

"Faro has developed software that allows rapid evaluation of clinical study costs, accessibility to patients and ease of study conduct," said Elena Viboch, Partner at General Catalyst. "By helping study teams answer complex questions, Faro's solution aims to improve lives by bringing more efficiency to clinical trials."

"Faro's solution is being used by top drug developers to greatly reduce the time and cost of trials," said Andy Harrison, Section 32 Managing Partner and CEO. "The company has rapidly grown its customer and partnership base as it continues to advance the exceptional and essential functionality of its unique platform. As it does so, the process and effectiveness of clinical trials can improve."

The best-in-class Faro platform, powered by multifaceted data, provides teams that design and author clinical studies with real-time insights into the protocol design. The platform assists teams with collaboratively designing and authoring studies that answer key scientific questions in the least burdensome way for patients, sites, payers, and regulators. Deep automation eliminates inconsistencies and errors through standardization and transformation of protocol content that can then be used to propagate applicable study documents and program downstream systems.  

"The technology used to design clinical trial protocols has not adapted to support the complexity of protocol design required by the current innovations in life sciences," said Scott Chetham  Ph.D., co-founder and CEO of Faro. "The Faro platform helps teams understand and mitigate the risks involved in modern protocols with enormous savings in direct costs and time. Our platform can also help amplify and accelerate biopharma's existing investments in Transcelerate's Common Protocol Template, Digital Data Flow, Content Reuse and other initiatives."
