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.

The 3 Hottest Insiders Buys This Month

Insider Trades

Insidertrades.com offers a wealth of information about insider buying. This article looks at April's three hottest insider buys, ranked by the number of buys, the number of buyers, and the number of purchases. In all cases, investors have opportunities; the question is how they may fit into a portfolio. 

Tile Shop is the Most Actively Bought Stock in April 

[content-module:CompanyOverview|NASDAQ: TTSH]Tile Shop (NASDAQ: TTSH) is the most activity-bought stock in April, with twenty-five total purchases for the trailing 90-day period. Among the pertinent details is that a single entity made these purchases. That entity is Fund 1 Investment. Fund 1 Investments is a holding company for Pleasant Lake Onshore Feeder Fund, a hedge fund based in Puerto Rico. The PLP Onshore Feeder Fund represents nearly 150 investors and $1 billion in funds. It is a 10% stockholder and a top-5 largest single holder.

Tile Shop is a source of man-made and natural tiles. The company experienced a contraction in business over the last year but is tracking to return to growth this year. The two largest shareholders are P. Jacullo and P. Kamin, directors of the company, who own roughly 35% between them. Institutional activity is also solid. Institutions own about 36% of the stock and have been buying for three consecutive quarters. Shares of TTSH have trended higher since mid-2022 and are set to retest the multi-year high. The catalyst could be FQ1 earnings, set for release next month.

UL Solutions Insiders Buy After the IPO

[content-module:CompanyOverview|NYSE: ULS]UL Solutions (NYSE: ULS), held by UL Standards & Engagement, was IPO’d in early April with little fanfare. The IPO resulted in volatility and a lower price point that insiders took advantage of. The company ranks in the number one position for the number of insiders buying, with six purchasing on April 16th, just before the offering window closed. Insider ownership is light at 0.3% but offset by substantial institutional and corporate ownership, which runs closer to 80%. 

Trends supporting the business before the spin-off include growth and widening margin. The company is well-positioned as a safety and testing sciences player and is expected to continue growing this year. The healthy balance sheet carries little leverage, so cash flow is unimpeded. The IPO raised more than $800 million in capital that can be used to improve shareholder value. Investors in this stock may expect to see it invest in growth, repurchase shares, or start a dividend distribution over the coming years. Potential avenues for growth include new and developing technologies that will enhance service capability or drive demand for services.

Berkshire Hathaway Buys … Formula One Group

[content-module:CompanyOverview|NASDAQ: FWONK]Berkshire Hathaway (NYSE: BRK-A) makes headlines for many reasons, but for some reason, its interest in Formula One Group (NASDAQ: FWONK) slips under the radar. It is the most active buyer of the stock regarding insiders and has made fifteen purchases in the last three months. Berkshire owns about 4% of the company and may continue; FWONK (the series C shares, which trade at a higher volume than Series A (NASDAQ: FWONA)) is the most bought by insiders in terms of dollar value. Analysts rate FWONK at Moderate Buy and see it advancing about 20% at the consensus. 

Shares of Formula One Group have been trending higher and show favorable technicals. The market is moving up from support at the 30-day and 150-day EMAs with bullish MACD and stochastic. The market should be able to rise to the next critical resistance target, which is near $74. A move above $74 would be bullish and may be catalyzed by the upcoming earnings report. The company is expected to grow its top line by 50%, impressive in any sector.
