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.

2 of Wall Street’s Favorite Stocks with Competitive Advantages and 1 to Be Wary Of

HOOD 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.

Luckily for you, we at StockStory have no conflicts of interest - our sole job is to help you find genuinely promising companies. That said, here are two stocks where Wall Street’s positive outlook is supported by strong fundamentals and one where analysts may be overlooking some important risks.

One Stock to Sell:

Danaher (DHR)

Consensus Price Target: $283.31 (34.5% implied return)

Born from a real estate investment trust that transformed into a manufacturing powerhouse, Danaher (NYSE: DHR) is a global science and technology company that provides specialized equipment, software, and services for biotechnology, life sciences, and diagnostics.

Why Are We Cautious About DHR?

  1. Organic revenue growth fell short of our benchmarks over the past two years and implies it may need to improve its products, pricing, or go-to-market strategy
  2. Demand will likely be soft over the next 12 months as Wall Street’s estimates imply tepid growth of 1.2%
  3. Adjusted operating profits fell over the last two years as its sales dropped and it struggled to adjust its fixed costs

Danaher’s stock price of $190.66 implies a valuation ratio of 23.6x forward price-to-earnings. Dive into our free research report to see why there are better opportunities than DHR.

Two Stocks to Watch:

Robinhood (HOOD)

Consensus Price Target: $50.65 (42.6% implied return)

With a mission to democratize finance, Robinhood (NASDAQ: HOOD) is an online consumer finance platform known for its commission-free stock and crypto trading.

Why Are We Backing HOOD?

  1. 43.9% annual increases in its average revenue per user over the last two years show its platform is resonating with power users
  2. Incremental sales significantly boosted profitability as its annual earnings per share growth of 30.5% over the last three years outstripped its revenue performance
  3. Free cash flow margin increased by 1,059.8 percentage points over the last few years, giving the company more capital to invest or return to shareholders

Robinhood is trading at $41.18 per share, or 21.6x forward EV-to-EBITDA. Is now the time to initiate a position? See for yourself in our in-depth research report, it’s free.

Zoetis (ZTS)

Consensus Price Target: $208.60 (35.1% implied return)

Originally spun off from Pfizer in 2013 as the world's largest pure-play animal health company, Zoetis (NYSE: ZTS) discovers, develops, and sells medicines, vaccines, diagnostic products, and services for pets and livestock animals worldwide.

Why Do We Like ZTS?

  1. Constant currency growth averaged 9% over the past two years, showing it can expand globally regardless of the macroeconomic environment
  2. Strong free cash flow margin of 21.5% enables it to reinvest or return capital consistently
  3. ROIC punches in at 28.7%, illustrating management’s expertise in identifying profitable investments

At $147.28 per share, Zoetis trades at 23.6x forward price-to-earnings. Is now a good time to buy? Find out in our full research report, it’s free.

Stocks We Like Even More

Donald Trump’s victory in the 2024 U.S. Presidential Election sent major indices to all-time highs, but stocks have retraced as investors debate the health of the economy and the potential impact of tariffs.

This is a curated list of our High Quality stocks that have generated a market-beating return of 175% over the last five years.
