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.

Ms. Helmkamp has served as an independent director and member of the IDEX Board since November 2015, and as a member of multiple Board committees, including as Chair of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee. As President and CEO of Cartus Corporation, the relocation services subsidiary of Anywhere Real Estate Inc., and in her previous roles as CEO of Lenox Corporation and Vice President Global Refrigeration for Whirlpool Corporation, she has gained extensive global business experience, with operating leadership skills and experience across multiple markets and technologies.

“The impact of IDEX’s highly engineered products used in mission-critical applications can be seen in so many industries worldwide. I am committed to and proud to support IDEX in its continued success,” Ms. Helmkamp said.

Ms. Helmkamp succeeds William M. Cook, who after fourteen years of serving on the IDEX Board has announced his intention to retire. Mr. Cook has been an invaluable contributor to the Board of Directors and the company, serving in various leadership roles including as a member and Chair of the Audit Committee, Lead Director, and most recently, as Non-Executive Chairman of the Board.

Ms. Helmkamp continued, “It is no surprise that the National Association of Corporate Directors (NACD) named Bill Cook its ‘Public Company Director of the Year’ in 2021. His presence will be greatly missed by the Board, and I am honored to continue the work to support IDEX in creating value for shareholders and innovative and valued solutions for customers.”

Mr. Cook noted, “What first attracted me to the IDEX Board of Directors remains there today. It is a world-class Board, bringing together highly intelligent and results-driven business executives in a very collaborative culture, where everyone always brings their ‘best game.’ Katrina is a natural choice to be the next Chair of the Board of Directors. She has what it takes to be an outstanding leader.”

“As we look to the future, I am excited to continue working with Katrina to build on IDEX’s long track record of success,” said Eric D. Ashleman, CEO and President of IDEX Corporation. “I also want to thank Bill, on behalf of the entire organization, for the remarkable leadership and unwavering encouragement he has provided during his 14 years of service on the IDEX Board.”

With Mr. Cook’s departure, effective October 1, 2022, the size of the Board will decrease from 11 to 10 directors.
