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.

WEX Announces Entry Into a $300 Million Accelerated Share Repurchase Agreement

By: via Business Wire

WEX Inc. (NYSE: WEX), the global commerce platform that simplifies the business of running a business, today announced it has entered into an accelerated share repurchase (“ASR”) agreement with JPMorgan Chase Bank, National Association (“JPMorgan”) to repurchase an aggregate of $300 million of WEX’s outstanding common stock. WEX entered into the ASR under its existing $1.05 billion amended share repurchase authorization, which was announced in February 2024.

“Entering into this ASR reflects our confidence and belief in WEX’s intrinsic value and long-term growth potential, underpinned by our strong revenue and earnings growth profile and our expectations for our future cash generation,” said Melissa Smith, WEX’s Chair, Chief Executive Officer, and President. “We remain committed to our capital allocation strategy, which allows us to invest in our future growth while simultaneously driving additional value to our shareholders through opportunistic share repurchases.”

Under the ASR, WEX will make an initial payment of $300 million to JPMorgan and will receive an initial delivery of approximately 1.3 million shares of its common stock, based on the $180.44 closing stock price of WEX’s common stock on July 26, 2024 representing approximately 80% of the total shares WEX expects to repurchase under the ASR. The final number of shares to be repurchased will be based on the average of the daily volume-weighted average prices of WEX’s common stock during the term of the ASR, less a discount and subject to customary adjustments pursuant to the terms and conditions of the ASR agreement. The final settlement of the ASR is expected to be completed in the fourth quarter, subject to acceleration at JPMorgan’s discretion. As of July 19, 2024, WEX had approximately 41.1 million common shares outstanding.
