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.

Kirby McInerney LLP Reminds Investors That a Class Action Lawsuit Has Been Filed on Behalf of Fidelity National Information Services, Inc. (FIS) Investors and Encourages Investors to Contact the Firm Before May 5, 2023

By: via Business Wire

The law firm of Kirby McInerney LLP announces that a class action lawsuit has been filed in the U.S. District Court for the Middle District of Florida on behalf of those who acquired Fidelity National Information Services, Inc. (“Fidelity National” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ: FIS) securities during the period from November 3, 2021 through January 31, 2023 (the “Class Period”). Investors have until May 5, 2023 to apply to the Court to be appointed as lead plaintiff in the lawsuit.

Fidelity National is a payment services provider.

On August 4, 2022, Fidelity National filed a Current Report on Form 8-K with the SEC announcing the Company’s second quarter 2022 results. The 8- K included an announcement that James Woodall planned to “step down” as Fidelity National’s Corporate Executive Vice President and CFO effective November 4, 2022, and that Erik Hoag would be replacing him on that same day. On this news, the price of Fidelity National shares declined by $7.56 per share, or approximately 7.26%, from $104.13 per share to close at $96.57 on August 4, 2022.

On November 3, 2022, Fidelity National announced disappointing results for the third quarter of 2022. During the earnings conference call, Gary Norcross, the CEO and, later, the Executive Chairman of the Board of Directors, announced that profit margins in the Merchant Solutions business “saw continued pressure in the quarter” resulting “in an overall adjusted EBITDA margin contracting 150 points year-on-year.” Norcross explained “we are not pleased with the profitability performance of the business and are taking actions to address them.” On this news, the price of Fidelity National shares declined by $22.29 per share, or approximately 28.05%, from $79.47 per share to close at $57.18 on November 3, 2022.

On February 13, 2023, Fidelity National filed a Current Report on Form 8-K with the SEC announcing the Company’s fourth quarter and full year 2022 results. The Form 8-K included a press release that stunned investors by disclosing that the Company would be getting rid of its Merchants Solutions business—namely Worldpay, a payments company Fidellity National had acquired on July 31, 2019—and “recorded a non-cash goodwill impairment charge of $17.6 billion related to Merchant Solutions reporting unit in the quarter.” This massive write-down constituted more than 40% of Fidelity National’s purchase price for Worldpay just a few years earlier. On this news, the price of Fidelity National shares declined by $9.43 per share, or approximately 12.50%, from $75.43 per share to close at $66.00 per share on February 13, 2023.

The lawsuit alleges that, throughout the Class Period, Defendants made false and/or misleading statements, as well as failed to disclose that: (1) the integration of Worldpay was not ahead of schedule; (2) the integration of Worldpay was not successfully completed during the Class Period; and (3) the increases in revenue synergies were not driven by the Worldpay integration.

Elrod of Kirby McInerney LLP by email at investigations@kmllp.com, or by filling out this contact form, to discuss your rights or interests with respect to these matters without any cost to you.
