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.

Amplitude (AMPL) Stock Trades Up, Here Is Why

AMPL Cover Image

What Happened?

Shares of data analytics software provider Amplitude (NASDAQ: AMPL) jumped 13% in the afternoon session after the company reported strong first quarter 2025 results which included full-year and next quarter revenue guidance that slightly beat Wall Street estimates, though customer growth slowed. What really stood out was the growth in recurring revenue, which jumped 12%, mostly because more big companies are locking in longer contracts and using more parts of the platform. That helped drive sales up 10% from this time last year, though the company's growth rate still isn't back to what it used to be. Most of the boost came from existing high-spending clients, not from signing up a lot of new ones. Overall, this quarter was decent.

What The Market Is Telling Us

Amplitude’s shares are very volatile and have had 22 moves greater than 5% over the last year. But moves this big are rare even for Amplitude and indicate this news significantly impacted the market’s perception of the business.

The previous big move we wrote about was 14 days ago when the stock gained 6.4% on the news that stocks extended their rebound, led by strong gains in the technology sector, as renewed optimism surrounding U.S.–China trade negotiations lifted investor sentiment. 

Contributing to the bullish tone was a standout earnings report from enterprise software leader ServiceNow, which topped Wall Street's expectations on RPO, profit and earnings. More importantly, the company's remaining performance obligations (RPO), a key forward-looking metric for future revenue, gave investors confidence that enterprise customers were not pulling back spending amidst uncertain macro. 

This optimism was further reinforced by solid results from Texas Instruments and Lam Research. Their performance was especially encouraging for semiconductor stocks, which had been under pressure due to their exposure to global trade tensions. These earnings results suggested that, despite macroeconomic uncertainties, demand in key tech verticals remained resilient.

Amplitude is up 0.7% since the beginning of the year, but at $10.77 per share, it is still trading 25.4% below its 52-week high of $14.44 from February 2025. Investors who bought $1,000 worth of Amplitude’s shares at the IPO in September 2021 would now be looking at an investment worth $196.53.

Unless you’ve been living under a rock, it should be obvious by now that generative AI is going to have a huge impact on how large corporations do business. While Nvidia and AMD are trading close to all-time highs, we prefer a lesser-known (but still profitable) semiconductor stock benefiting from the rise of AI.
