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 Walking a Fine Line

BMBL Cover Image

Investors can certainly boost their returns by concentrating on stocks trading between $1 and $10. However, a disciplined approach is necessary because many of these businesses are speculative and lack the underlying fundamentals to support their prices.

The bad behavior exhibited by lower-quality companies in this space can spook even the most seasoned professionals, which is why we started StockStory - to separate the good from the bad. That said, here are three stocks under $10 to swipe left on and some alternatives you should look into instead.

Bumble (BMBL)

Share Price: $4.96

Started by the co-founder of Tinder, Whitney Wolfe Herd, Bumble (NASDAQ: BMBL) is a leading dating app built with women at the center.

Why Does BMBL Fall Short?

  1. Decision to emphasize platform growth over monetization has contributed to 3.9% annual declines in its average revenue per buyer
  2. Forecasted revenue decline of 8.3% for the upcoming 12 months implies demand will fall off a cliff
  3. Annual earnings per share growth of 3.6% underperformed its revenue over the last three years, partly because it diluted shareholders

Bumble’s stock price of $4.96 implies a valuation ratio of 4.3x forward EV-to-EBITDA. To fully understand why you should be careful with BMBL, check out our full research report (it’s free).

LegalZoom (LZ)

Share Price: $9.27

Founded by famous lawyer Robert Shapiro, LegalZoom (NASDAQ: LZ) offers online legal services and documentation assistance for individuals and businesses.

Why Are We Cautious About LZ?

  1. Sales trends were unexciting over the last three years as its 5.8% annual growth was below the typical consumer internet company
  2. Focus on expanding its platform has led to weaker growth in its average revenue per user
  3. Projected sales growth of 4.9% for the next 12 months suggests sluggish demand

LegalZoom is trading at $9.27 per share, or 10.5x forward EV-to-EBITDA. Check out our free in-depth research report to learn more about why LZ doesn’t pass our bar.

Sabre (SABR)

Share Price: $3.16

Originally a division of American Airlines, Sabre (NASDAQ: SABR) is a technology provider for the global travel and tourism industry.

Why Do We Avoid SABR?

  1. Number of total bookings has disappointed over the past two years, indicating weak demand for its offerings
  2. Poor free cash flow margin of -0.8% for the last two years limits its freedom to invest in growth initiatives, execute share buybacks, or pay dividends
  3. Limited cash reserves may force the company to seek unfavorable financing terms that could dilute shareholders

At $3.16 per share, Sabre trades at 17.4x forward price-to-earnings. If you’re considering SABR for your portfolio, see our FREE research report to learn more.
