About Cabling Installation & Maintenance:

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.

What Happened?

Shares of american restaurant chain BJ’s Restaurants (NASDAQ: BJRI) jumped 12.3% in the afternoon session after the company reported strong first-quarter 2025 results, which significantly beat analysts' EPS and EBITDA expectations. Sales were in line, up just over 3% year-on-year, a modest gain reflecting limited same-store sales growth of 1.7%, while a 2.7% increase in guest traffic carried most of the weight. Zooming out, we think this was a solid print.

What The Market Is Telling Us

BJ’s shares are somewhat volatile and have had 14 moves greater than 5% over the last year. But moves this big are rare even for BJ's and indicate this news significantly impacted the market’s perception of the business.

The biggest move we wrote about over the last year was 12 months ago when the stock gained 15.4% on the news that the company reported strong first-quarter results that beat analysts' same-store sales, gross margin, and EPS expectations. The results could have been better as same-store sales fell 1.7% due to heavier-than-usual winter weather in January. This affected restaurant traffic, which fell approximately 9% in January before recovering to negative mid-single digits in February and March. As these headwinds were mostly concentrated in the first quarter, management expected second-quarter comp sales to be only slightly negative due to less pricing partly offset by improving traffic trends. The second quarter was expected to benefit from key events, including Mother's Day, Father's Day, and graduation celebrations. Zooming out, we think this was a great quarter that shareholders will appreciate.

BJ's is up 5.6% since the beginning of the year, and at $37.90 per share, it is trading close to its 52-week high of $38.63 from February 2025. Investors who bought $1,000 worth of BJ’s shares 5 years ago would now be looking at an investment worth $1,861.
