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 Xerox Holdings Corporation (XRX) Investors of Class Action Filing and Encourages Investors to Contact the Firm

The law firm of Kirby McInerney LLP reminds investors that a class action lawsuit has been filed in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York on behalf of those who acquired Xerox Holdings Corporation (“Xerox” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ: XRX) securities during the period of January 25, 2024 to October 28, 2024, inclusive (“the Class Period”). Investors have until January 21, 2025, to apply to the Court to be appointed as lead plaintiff in the lawsuit.

In October 2023, Xerox introduced an organizational overhaul, which it dubbed the “Reinvention”. Then, on January 3, 2024, the Company announced the next stage of its “operating model evolution” which included shifting to a “business unit operating model,” consolidating groups under a “Global Business Services organization,” and a layoff of 15% of the Company’s workforce.

On April 23, 2024, the effects of the Company’s Reinvention began to emerge, when the Company revealed that for second quarter 2024, quarterly revenue was down 12.4% year-over-year and equipment sales declined 25.8 year-over-year. The Company admitted, in part, “geographic simplification” had driven the year-over-year decline. The Company also partially disclosed that the Reinvention plan had been “initially disruptive to sales operations” but assured investors it was “seeing the benefits of the new business unit-led operating model in equipment order momentum.” On this news, Xerox shares declined by $1.66 per share, or approximately 10.1%, from $16.42 per share on April 22, 2024, to close at $14.76 on April 23, 2024.

On October 29, 2024, Xerox released its third quarter 2024 financial results, missing consensus estimates and lowering guidance and attributing the performance to “the delayed global launch of two new products and lower-than-expected improvements in sales force productivity” and “to a lesser extent, delays in the implementation of certain cost reduction initiatives to 2025.” On this news, Xerox shares declined by $1.79 per share, or approximately 17.4%, from $10.28 per share on October 28, 2024, to close at $8.49 on October 29, 2024.

The complaint alleges that, throughout the Class Period, Defendants made numerous materially false and misleading statements, as well as failed to disclose material adverse facts about the Company’s business, operations, and prospects. Specifically, Defendants failed to disclose to investors: (1) that, after a large workforce reduction, the Company’s salesforce was reorganized with new territory assignments and account coverage; (2) that, as a result, the Company’s salesforce productivity was disrupted; (3) that, as a result, the Company had a lower rate of sell-through of older products; (4) that the difficulties in flushing out old product would delay the launch of key products; (5) that, as a result, Xerox was likely to experience lower sales and revenue; and (6) that, as a result of the foregoing, Defendants’ positive statements about the Company’s business, operations, and prospects were materially misleading and/or lacked a reasonable basis.

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.
