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.

2 Unprofitable Stocks for Long-Term Investors and 1 We Question

GTLB Cover Image

Unprofitable companies face headwinds as they struggle to keep operating expenses under control. Some may be investing heavily, but the majority fail to convert spending into sustainable growth.

Finding the right unprofitable companies is difficult, which is why we started StockStory - to help you navigate the market. That said, here are two unprofitable companies with the potential to become industry leaders and one that may never reach the Promised Land.

One Stock to Sell:

Neogen (NEOG)

Trailing 12-Month GAAP Operating Margin: -122%

Founded in 1981 and operating at the intersection of food safety and animal health, Neogen (NASDAQ: NEOG) develops and manufactures diagnostic tests and related products to detect dangerous substances in food and pharmaceuticals for animal health.

Why Do We Pass on NEOG?

  1. Customers postponed purchases of its products and services this cycle as its revenue declined by 1.8% annually over the last two years
  2. Eroding returns on capital from an already low base indicate that management’s recent investments are destroying value
  3. Limited cash reserves may force the company to seek unfavorable financing terms that could dilute shareholders

Neogen’s stock price of $5.80 implies a valuation ratio of 18.3x forward P/E. To fully understand why you should be careful with NEOG, check out our full research report (it’s free for active Edge members).

Two Stocks to Watch:

GitLab (GTLB)

Trailing 12-Month GAAP Operating Margin: -11.3%

With its all-remote workforce pioneering a new approach to software development, GitLab (NASDAQ: GTLB) provides a single-application DevSecOps platform that helps development, operations, and security teams collaborate to build, secure, and deploy software faster.

Why Is GTLB a Top Pick?

  1. ARR trends over the last year show it’s maintaining a steady flow of long-term contracts that contribute positively to its revenue predictability
  2. Prominent and differentiated software leads to a best-in-class gross margin of 88.5%
  3. GTLB is a free cash flow machine with the flexibility to invest in growth initiatives or return capital to shareholders

GitLab is trading at $44.89 per share, or 7.2x forward price-to-sales. Is now a good time to buy? Find out in our full research report, it’s free for active Edge members.

Montrose (MEG)

Trailing 12-Month GAAP Operating Margin: -2.5%

Founded to protect a tree-lined two-lane road, Montrose (NYSE: MEG) provides air quality monitoring, environmental laboratory testing, compliance, and environmental consulting services.

Why Are We Positive On MEG?

  1. Annual revenue growth of 18% over the last two years was superb and indicates its market share increased during this cycle
  2. Incremental sales over the last two years have been highly profitable as its earnings per share increased by 132% annually, topping its revenue gains
  3. Free cash flow margin grew by 12.3 percentage points over the last five years, giving the company more chips to play with

At $29.93 per share, Montrose trades at 27.5x forward P/E. Is now the time to initiate a position? See for yourself in our in-depth research report, it’s free for active Edge members.
