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.

Barry joins Industrial Physics after over fifteen years with Danaher Corporation (“Danaher”), including more than five years leading large global businesses in the test and measurement industry. Most recently, Barry served as the President of Microbiology for Beckman Coulter, a global clinical diagnostics company and Danaher operating company. Before then, he was President of Sea-Bird Scientific, a market leading provider of instrumentation utilized in ocean research. Barry also spent nearly eight years in various roles at Hach, a global leader in water quality testing instrumentation, where he worked closely with Lance. Barry’s strong track record of driving accelerated growth and operational excellence makes him well positioned to lead Industrial Physics in its next chapter.

“I am honored to join Industrial Physics and work alongside Lance and the rest of the talented team at Industrial Physics,” said Barry Lyon. “Industrial Physics has created an impressive global portfolio of leading brands and I am excited to build upon this foundation to better serve our customers and drive future growth, both organically and through acquisitions. I am enthused to work with KKR as a strategic partner and to lead the roll out of a broad-based equity plan in which all Industrial Physics colleagues will become owners of the business.”

Lance is an Executive Advisor to KKR and currently serves as a Board Director at Flow Control Group and as Chairman of the Board at GeoStabilization International. Lance previously worked at Danaher, most recently as Group Executive and Vice President responsible for Danaher’s Water Quality Platform. In this role, Lance led holistic operational and commercial transformations and executed a number of strategic acquisitions. Earlier, he spent six years in various senior leadership roles at Hach, ultimately leading the business as President.

“I am thrilled to join the Board of Industrial Physics and look forward to working with Barry and this talented team to achieve a new phase of growth and innovation,” said Lance Reisman. “Barry is a dynamic and passionate business leader with a strong track record. His leadership and business acumen, combined with Industrial Physics’ leading portfolio of products, services and technical capabilities, will help the Company realize its full potential as a leading specialized testing and measurement partner across a wide range of industries and geographies.”

KKR plans to support Industrial Physics in implementing a broad-based employee ownership program, which will give employees the opportunity to participate in the benefits of ownership of the Company. This strategy is based on the belief that employee engagement is a key driver in building stronger companies. Since 2011, KKR has awarded billions of dollars of total equity value to over 60,000 non-management employees across over 30 companies. Last year, KKR joined more than 20 organizations in becoming a founding partner of Ownership Works, a nonprofit created to support public and private companies transitioning to shared ownership models.
