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.

Why Analysts Are Revisiting Their Positions On Tesla Stock

Tesla (NASDAQ: TSLA) -1.7% reported better-than-expected results for Q1 2022, with sales increasing 81% year-over-year to $18.76billion and adjusted profits per stock more than doubling to $3.22. Model 3 and Y deliveries increased 68% over Q1 2021.

Increasing manufacturing of the more costly Model S and X variants and putting an emphasis on higher trim levels were key to this success. As a result, this quarter was good for Tesla’s profitability. Gross margins in the auto sector (excluding regulatory credit sales) were over 30%.

That is an increase of 22% from a year ago and 29% in Q4. The profit growth is remarkable due to rising input prices and supply chain constraints. Accordingly, we revise Tesla’s position and raise our price estimate to $1,100 per share. That is a bit more than the current market price.

Although the electric vehicle market is expected to grow in competition, Tesla’s cost advantages, manufacturing capabilities, and strong brand recognition as an early adopter will remain competitive. In addition, the firm has no commercial budget, and orders increased dramatically after the Super Bowl. That was due to the presence of many celebrities promoting electric cars.

To meet the growing demand for Tesla’s electric cars, the company has opened two new plants in Texas and Berlin. Tesla has a track record of exceeding customer delivery expectations. Although the company has stated a goal to increase deliveries by 50% this year, Elon Musk claims that 60% growth is possible.

Despite market headwinds, Tesla’s advantages in production and cost management are becoming more evident. The business optimizes manufacturing, substitutes parts in limited supply, expands economies of scale, and maximizes its manufacturing capabilities. As a result, Tesla’s operating margins in the first quarter of 2022 were 19%, three times the industry average.

There are some drawbacks. Tesla currently trades at more than 90x ZRX +24.4% consensus 2022 profits, for a share price above $1,000 per. Analysts believe that Tesla’s growth supports that assessment. However, investors are moving away from multiple names and towards more value bets that could jeopardize Tesla’s valuation.

Rising raw material costs have raised concerns about the commodities cycle, particularly for batteries. Even though long-term contracts protect Tesla, it will likely feel the effects of rising spot prices because of its huge demand. In addition, investors will not be able to keep up with industry innovation.

Mainstream manufacturers have invested multi-billions of dollars in developing electric vehicle (EV) capacities and development. Although there has been much back and forth, mainstream automakers may be able to offer appealing EVs that are a success with customers. That could shift the narrative about Tesla stock and its price significantly.
