Properly firestopping openings in fire-rated walls as well as floors/ceilings is a building-code-mandated necessity. The manner in which those openings achieve the appropriate firestop rating can vary from building to building and from penetration to penetration. This web-delivered seminar hosted by Cabling Installation & Maintenance will provide detailed information on two important firestop-related topics: The UL 1479 standard covering firestopping; and the products/systems that are used to achieve firestop ratings.

Current and near-term-future data-networking speeds are demanding better-than-ever performance from installed multimode fiber-optic cabling systems. Gone are the days of less-than-precise handling practices and forgiving loss budgets. Today’s multimode systems must be designed, installed, tested, and maintained carefully to ensure they will live up to the lofty expectations of high-speed network users. This webcast presentation, produced by Cabling Installation & Maintenance, examines three aspects of ensuring multimode fiber-optic system performance to support cutting-edge high-speed transmission.

Cabling systems of all kinds are being put to the test, in the lab and in the field, more than ever. In many cases, the installed base of cabling is being tasked with supporting new or additional applications as network convergence moves from concept to reality. In other cases, decisions are being made today about which media types are the best investment for supporting current and future applications. This web-delivered seminar, produced by Cabling Installation & Maintenance, will serve as a practical guide for consultants, designers, installers, and users of structured cabling systems who are either deciding which medium to install, or are contemplating what the installed base of cabling systems will support in the future.
