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.

1 Stock Under $50 to Research Further and 2 to Keep Off Your Radar

By: StockStory

PINS Cover Image

The $10-50 price range often includes mid-sized businesses with proven track records and plenty of growth runway ahead. They also usually carry less risk than penny stocks, though they’re not immune to volatility as many lack the scale advantages of their larger peers.

These dynamics can cause headaches for even the most seasoned professionals, which is why we started StockStory - to help you separate the good companies from the bad. Keeping that in mind, here is one stock under $50 with massive upside potential and two that could be down big.

Two Stocks Under $50 to Sell:

FormFactor (FORM)

Share Price: $31.90

With customers across the foundry and fabless markets, FormFactor (NASDAQ: FORM) is a US-based provider of test and measurement technologies for semiconductors.

Why Should You Dump FORM?

  1. 4.4% annual revenue growth over the last five years was slower than its semiconductor peers
  2. Projected sales growth of 2.4% for the next 12 months suggests sluggish demand
  3. Efficiency has decreased over the last five years as its operating margin fell by 6.1 percentage points

FormFactor is trading at $31.90 per share, or 21.7x forward P/E. Dive into our free research report to see why there are better opportunities than FORM.

Paramount (PARA)

Share Price: $11.77

Owner of Spongebob Squarepants and formerly known as ViacomCBS, Paramount Global (NASDAQ: PARA) is a major media conglomerate offering television, film production, and digital content across various global platforms.

Why Do We Steer Clear of PARA?

  1. Annual sales declines of 2.3% for the past two years show its products and services struggled to connect with the market
  2. Earnings per share fell by 22.1% annually over the last five years while its revenue grew, showing its incremental sales were much less profitable
  3. Shrinking returns on capital from an already weak position reveal that neither previous nor ongoing investments are yielding the desired results

At $11.77 per share, Paramount trades at 7.8x forward P/E. Read our free research report to see why you should think twice about including PARA in your portfolio.

One Stock Under $50 to Watch:

Pinterest (PINS)

Share Price: $32.20

Created with the idea of virtually replacing paper catalogues, Pinterest (NYSE: PINS) is an online image and social discovery platform.

Why Are We Fans of PINS?

  1. Monthly Active Users are rising, meaning the company can increase revenue without incurring additional customer acquisition costs if it can cross-sell additional products and features
  2. Excellent EBITDA margin of 27% highlights the efficiency of its business model
  3. Strong free cash flow margin of 24.7% enables it to reinvest or return capital consistently

Pinterest’s stock price of $32.20 implies a valuation ratio of 17.6x forward EV/EBITDA. Is now the right time to buy? See for yourself in our in-depth research report, it’s free.
