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.

3 Stocks Under $10 in the Doghouse

TDUP Cover Image

Stocks under $10 pique our interest because they have room to grow (as well as the most affordable option contract premiums). That doesn’t mean they’re bargains though, and we urge investors to be careful as many have risky business models.

The downside that can come from buying these securities is precisely why we started StockStory - to isolate the long-term winners from the losers so you can invest with confidence. Keeping that in mind, here are three stocks under $10 to swipe left on and some alternatives you should look into instead.

ThredUp (TDUP)

Share Price: $2.45

Founded to revolutionize thrifting, ThredUp (NASDAQ: TDUP) is a leading online fashion resale marketplace offering a wide selection of gently-used clothing and accessories.

Why Should You Sell TDUP?

  1. Demand for its offerings was relatively low as its number of orders has underwhelmed
  2. Historical operating losses point to an inefficient cost structure
  3. Negative free cash flow raises questions about the return timeline for its investments

At $2.45 per share, ThredUp trades at 35x forward EV-to-EBITDA. Read our free research report to see why you should think twice about including TDUP in your portfolio.

Leggett & Platt (LEG)

Share Price: $8.33

Founded in 1883, Leggett & Platt (NYSE: LEG) is a diversified manufacturer of products and components for various industries.

Why Do We Pass on LEG?

  1. Products and services aren't resonating with the market as its revenue declined by 1.6% annually over the last five years
  2. Earnings per share decreased by more than its revenue over the last five years, showing each sale was less profitable
  3. Waning returns on capital from an already weak starting point displays the inefficacy of management’s past and current investment decisions

Leggett & Platt is trading at $8.33 per share, or 6.9x forward price-to-earnings. Dive into our free research report to see why there are better opportunities than LEG.

NN (NNBR)

Share Price: $2.63

Formerly known as Nuturn, NN (NASDAQ: NNBR) provides metal components, bearings, and plastic and rubber components to the automotive, aerospace, medical, and industrial sectors.

Why Are We Out on NNBR?

  1. Sales stagnated over the last five years and signal the need for new growth strategies
  2. Sales over the last five years were less profitable as its earnings per share fell by 17.1% annually while its revenue was flat
  3. Cash burn makes us question whether it can achieve sustainable long-term growth

NN’s stock price of $2.63 implies a valuation ratio of 2.4x forward EV-to-EBITDA. If you’re considering NNBR for your portfolio, see our FREE research report to learn more.
