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.

1 of Wall Street’s Favorite Stock for Long-Term Investors and 2 That Underwhelm

SFIX Cover Image

Wall Street has set ambitious price targets for the stocks in this article. While this suggests attractive upside potential, it’s important to remain skeptical because analysts face institutional pressures that can sometimes lead to overly optimistic forecasts.

At StockStory, we look beyond the headlines with our independent analysis to determine whether these bullish calls are justified. Keeping that in mind, here is one stock where Wall Street’s excitement appears well-founded and two where its enthusiasm might be excessive.

Two Stocks to Sell:

Stitch Fix (SFIX)

Consensus Price Target: $5.25 (19.6% implied return)

One of the original subscription box companies, Stitch Fix (NASDAQ: SFIX) is an online personal styling and fashion service that curates personalized clothing selections for customers.

Why Is SFIX Risky?

  1. Performance surrounding its active clients has lagged its peers
  2. Persistent operating margin losses suggest the business manages its expenses poorly
  3. Diminishing returns on capital from an already low starting point show that neither management’s prior nor current bets are going as planned

At $4.39 per share, Stitch Fix trades at 15.1x forward EV-to-EBITDA. If you’re considering SFIX for your portfolio, see our FREE research report to learn more.

Corcept (CORT)

Consensus Price Target: $135.25 (70.9% implied return)

Focusing on the powerful stress hormone that affects everything from metabolism to immune function, Corcept Therapeutics (NASDAQ: CORT) develops and markets medications that modulate cortisol to treat endocrine disorders, cancer, and neurological diseases.

Why Do We Think Twice About CORT?

  1. Day-to-day expenses have swelled relative to revenue over the last five years as its adjusted operating margin fell by 16.9 percentage points
  2. Performance over the past five years shows its incremental sales were much less profitable, as its earnings per share fell by 2.8% annually
  3. Shrinking returns on capital suggest that increasing competition is eating into the company’s profitability

Corcept’s stock price of $79.12 implies a valuation ratio of 78x forward P/E. Check out our free in-depth research report to learn more about why CORT doesn’t pass our bar.

One Stock to Watch:

Target Hospitality (TH)

Consensus Price Target: $10.50 (44.2% implied return)

Building mini-communities at places such as oil drilling sites, Target Hospitality (NASDAQ: TH) is a provider of specialty workforce lodging accommodations and services.

Why Do We Like TH?

  1. Highly efficient business model is illustrated by its impressive 25.9% operating margin
  2. Impressive free cash flow profitability enables the company to fund new investments or reward investors with share buybacks/dividends
  3. Returns on capital are growing as management capitalizes on its market opportunities

Target Hospitality is trading at $7.28 per share, or 22.1x forward EV-to-EBITDA. Is now the time to initiate a position? Find out in our full research report, it’s free for active Edge members.
