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 Mid-Cap Stocks Worth Your Attention

By: StockStory

SFM Cover Image

Large trillion-dollar companies are tightening their grip on the market, often by acquiring smaller rivals. This trend will likely pick up with new regulatory leadership, but a few mid-sized businesses will continue prospering by anchoring themselves in unique market segments.

Digging up these buried treasures isn’t easy, and that’s exactly why we created StockStory. That said, here are three of our favorite mid-cap stocks that could amplify your portfolio’s returns.

Sprouts (SFM)

Market Cap: $15.99 billion

Playing on the secular trend of healthier living, Sprouts Farmers Market (NASDAQ: SFM) is a grocery store chain emphasizing natural and organic products.

Why Do We Watch SFM?

  1. Aggressive strategy of rolling out new stores to gobble up whitespace is prudent given its same-store sales growth
  2. Comparable store sales rose by 6.6% on average over the past two years, demonstrating its ability to drive increased spending at existing locations
  3. Free cash flow margin grew by 2.1 percentage points over the last year, giving the company more chips to play with

Sprouts is trading at $163 per share, or 33.6x forward P/E. Is now the time to initiate a position? See for yourself in our in-depth research report, it’s free.

Natera (NTRA)

Market Cap: $20.94 billion

Founded in 2003 as Gene Security Network before rebranding in 2012, Natera (NASDAQ: NTRA) develops and commercializes genetic tests for prenatal screening, cancer detection, and organ transplant monitoring using its proprietary cell-free DNA technology.

Why Is NTRA a Good Business?

  1. Products are reaching more customers as its tests processed averaged 23.1% growth over the past two years
  2. Adjusted operating profits and efficiency rose over the last two years as it benefited from some fixed cost leverage
  3. Free cash flow profile has moved into positive territory over the last five years, showing the company has crossed a key inflection point

Natera’s stock price of $153.89 implies a valuation ratio of 10.1x forward price-to-sales. Is now the right time to buy? Find out in our full research report, it’s free.

Booz Allen Hamilton (BAH)

Market Cap: $13.39 billion

With roots dating back to 1914 and deep ties to nearly all U.S. cabinet-level departments, Booz Allen Hamilton (NYSE: BAH) provides management consulting, technology services, and cybersecurity solutions primarily to U.S. government agencies and military branches.

Why Are We Backing BAH?

  1. Market share has increased this cycle as its 13.7% annual revenue growth over the last two years was exceptional
  2. Existing business lines can expand without risky acquisitions as its organic revenue growth averaged 12.9% over the past two years
  3. Share repurchases have amplified shareholder returns as its annual earnings per share growth of 14.9% exceeded its revenue gains over the last five years

At $108.40 per share, Booz Allen Hamilton trades at 15.7x forward P/E. Is now a good time to buy? See for yourself in our comprehensive 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.

While this leaves much uncertainty around 2025, a few companies are poised for long-term gains regardless of the political or macroeconomic climate, like our Top 5 Growth Stocks for this month. This is a curated list of our High Quality stocks that have generated a market-beating return of 183% over the last five years (as of March 31st 2025).
