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.

Coinbase (COIN) Stock Trades Up, Here Is Why

COIN Cover Image

What Happened?

Shares of blockchain infrastructure company Coinbase (NASDAQ: COIN) jumped 3.3% in the afternoon session after investment firm BTIG initiated coverage on the stock with a 'Buy' rating and a $410 price target. The analyst firm pointed to what it called 'underappreciated' growth areas, such as the company's derivatives business and the Base App. The positive news did not stop there, as Coinbase also surpassed $1 billion in bitcoin-backed onchain loans, showing significant growth for the service. Further bolstering investor confidence, new guidance from the SEC's staff allowed state-chartered trust companies, including Coinbase, to act as qualified custodians for crypto assets for investment advisers, clearing up regulatory uncertainty.

After the initial pop the shares cooled down to $346.88, up 2.8% from previous close.

What Is The Market Telling Us

Coinbase’s shares are extremely volatile and have had 59 moves greater than 5% over the last year. In that context, today’s move indicates the market considers this news meaningful but not something that would fundamentally change its perception of the business.

The previous big move we wrote about was 2 days ago when the stock gained 5.9% on the news that the stock rallied amid a broad surge in the cryptocurrency market, fueled by positive regulatory commentary and signs of increasing institutional interest. The overall market value of cryptocurrencies rose by 2.5% to $3.86 trillion, with major digital assets like Bitcoin reclaiming the $112,000 level and Ethereum climbing 2.8%. This bullish sentiment was bolstered by a significant transaction from BlackRock, the world's largest asset manager, which deposited approximately $206 million in Ethereum and $38 million in Bitcoin into Coinbase Prime, signaling strong institutional positioning. Further supporting the positive mood, SEC Commissioner Hester Peirce noted that the U.S. is entering a more constructive era for digital assets. The move was also supported by a broader economic environment, as the U.S. Federal Reserve resumed its rate-cut cycle, a development generally seen as positive for risk assets like crypto.

Coinbase is up 34.9% since the beginning of the year, but at $346.88 per share, it is still trading 17.4% below its 52-week high of $419.78 from July 2025. Investors who bought $1,000 worth of Coinbase’s shares at the IPO in April 2021 would now be looking at an investment worth $1,057.

Unless you’ve been living under a rock, it should be obvious by now that generative AI is going to have a huge impact on how large corporations do business. While Nvidia and AMD are trading close to all-time highs, we prefer a lesser-known (but still profitable) semiconductor stock benefiting from the rise of AI.
