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.

Why Planet Labs (PL) Stock Is Up Today

PL Cover Image

What Happened?

Shares of earth imaging satellite company Planet Labs (NYSE: PL) jumped 8.1% in the morning session after an analyst at Wedbush reiterated an "Outperform" rating and significantly raised the price target on the stock. 

The analyst boosted the price target by over 54% from $11 to $17. This positive view followed a series of favorable announcements from the company on the previous day. Planet Labs reported that it had shipped new satellites, including its Pelican-5 and Pelican-6 models along with 36 SuperDoves, to a launch site for an upcoming SpaceX mission.

What Is The Market Telling Us

Planet Labs’s shares are extremely volatile and have had 61 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 about 22 hours ago when the stock gained 6.5% on the news that the company announced it had shipped new satellites for an upcoming SpaceX launch and revealed plans to expand its manufacturing capabilities in Europe. 

The company reported that its Pelican-5 and Pelican-6 satellites, along with 36 SuperDoves, have arrived at Vandenberg Space Force Base for the Transporter-15 Rideshare mission. Planet's CEO, Will Marshall, stated that "incredible demand" for high-resolution data is fueling this growth. Further bolstering investor confidence, Planet Labs will open a new manufacturing facility in Berlin, Germany, to double the production capacity of its Pelican fleet. This move is a response to strong business growth in Europe, highlighted by a multi-year €240 million agreement with the German government and a key contract with NATO. These developments suggest the company is scaling up to meet rising customer demand for its Earth-imaging data and services.

Planet Labs is up 273% since the beginning of the year, and at $14.81 per share, has set a new 52-week high. Investors who bought $1,000 worth of Planet Labs’s shares at the IPO in April 2021 would now be looking at an investment worth $1,495.

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.
