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 Zillow (ZG) Stock Is Trading Up Today

ZG Cover Image

What Happened?

Shares of online real estate marketplace Zillow (NASDAQ: ZG) jumped 3.9% in the afternoon session after investment firm Gordon Haskett upgraded the stock to 'Buy' from 'Hold' and set a price target of $90. The upgrade indicated a positive shift in the firm's view of the company's prospects. Further bolstering investor confidence, analyst firm DA Davidson maintained its own "Buy" rating on Zillow, holding its price target at $95. Together, these ratings suggested a favorable outlook on the online real estate company's potential for growth and market performance.

After the initial pop the shares cooled down to $74.79, up 3.2% from previous close.

What Is The Market Telling Us

Zillow’s shares are somewhat volatile and have had 12 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 dropped 4% on the news that the company was sued by the U.S. Federal Trade Commission (FTC) and a coalition of states over an alleged illegal scheme to eliminate competition in the online rental listings market. 

The lawsuits allege that in February 2025, Zillow paid rival Redfin $100 million to shut down its apartment rental advertising business and transfer clients to Zillow. According to the FTC and attorneys general from five states, including New York and Washington, this agreement violates federal antitrust laws. Regulators are concerned the deal will reduce innovation, increase advertising costs for landlords, and ultimately harm renters by limiting their choices. The legal actions seek to unwind the agreement and come amidst a series of other lawsuits Zillow is currently facing, putting the company under an intense legal spotlight.

Zillow is up 6.7% since the beginning of the year, but at $74.79 per share, it is still trading 13.8% below its 52-week high of $86.76 from September 2025. Investors who bought $1,000 worth of Zillow’s shares 5 years ago would now be looking at an investment worth $678.30.
