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.

3 Stocks to Buy After Heavy Insider Buying

Insider buying stocks

Many investors are motivated to sell a stock when they notice that company insiders are dumping their shares. However, company insiders can sell a stock for many reasons, and many of those have nothing to do with the stock’s performance. 

On the other hand, heavy insider buying is a solid predictor for when it’s time to buy a stock. That’s because insiders have only one reason to buy a stock. Simply put, they believe their company’s stock is undervalued and are trying to make money just like you are. 

To find the stocks for this article, we used the “Stocks with the Most Insider Buying” tool on MarketBeat. This tool, which is available to MarketBeat All-Access subscribers, is an excellent way to jumpstart your stock research by providing a list of stocks with the highest levels of insider buying within the last 90 days.  

This Undervalued Oil Stock Looks Ready to Pop 

Occidental Petroleum Corporation (NASDAQ: OXY) has been a favorite of MarketBeat analysts over the past month. The price of crude oil, which has been depressed for the better part of a year, recently cracked $80 a barrel. And with NYSE: OXY">demand expected to outstrip supply in the second half of the year, it’s not hard to see NYSE: OXY">oil reaching $90 or even $100 a barrel. 

Many investors know that Warren Buffett is a fan of OXY stock and his hedge fund has been buying the stock. That’s been enough to drive the OXY stock price up approximately 9% in the last month. That’s despite the company missing on earnings in its August report. 

There are two reasons, however, why Buffett is – and why you perhaps should be – bullish on OXY stock. One is that the company used their windfall profits in 2022 to pay down debt which is cleaning up its balance sheet in favor of shareholders. Plus, Occidental owns about half of the Permian Basin which sets it up for years of inexpensive and high-margin production.  

Demand for Public Safety Should be a Catalyst for This Stock 

Axon Enterprise, Inc. (NASDAQ: AXON) is a leading provider of technology solutions for law enforcement. The company’s technology enables the use of less lethal weapons, body cameras, and cloud-based software.  

No matter your ideology, it’s not hard to make a case that crime and public safety will be a defining issue in the 2024 election. This is particularly true if you live in or around some of the cities that have seen a spike in crime.  

That sets up well for Axon which has a mix of hardware and software products that gives the company a wide moat in several of the sectors in which it operates. The company also generates strong free cash flow and has increased its annual recurring revenue ARR by 49%.  

With all that said, AXON stock is not for the faint of heart. It has an eye-popping forward P/E ratio of 113.72. Nevertheless, the Axon Enterprise analyst ratings on MarketBeat show that analysts still believe the stock can go higher; a fact that is supported by at least two insider buys in the last 90 days.  

You Can Buy the Dip on This Net Lease REIT 

Agree Realty Corporation (NYSE: ADC) has seen a surge in insider buying with six insiders purchasing ADC stock in the last 90 days. So what do they know they you may not?  

At a time when many investors are rightly concerned about the outlook for commercial lending, it’s important to note that net lease REITs have a business model that helps to shelter them from some of the risks involved in this sector. 

Specific to Agree Realty, the company’s RETHINKING RETAIL model focuses on acquiring and developing properties to industry-leading omni-channel retail tenants. Dollar stores, grocery stores, auto parts stores, and drugstores are among the businesses in the company’s portfolio.  

Because of their business model, REITs are attractive to income-oriented investors. And Agree Realty is no different. It pays an attractive dividend that currently yields 4.55%. And according to the Agree Realty analyst ratings on MarketBeat, ADC stock has an upside of 18% based on the outlook of eight analysts.
