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 Small-Cap Stock Worth Your Attention and 2 to Ignore

TLRY Cover Image

Investors looking for hidden gems should keep an eye on small-cap stocks because they’re frequently overlooked by Wall Street. Many opportunities exist in this part of the market, but it is also a high-risk, high-reward environment due to the lack of reliable analyst price targets.

These trade-offs 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. That said, here is one small-cap stock that could amplify your portfolio’s returns and two that could be down big.

Two Small-Cap Stocks to Sell:

Tilray (TLRY)

Market Cap: $359.8 million

Founded in 2013, Tilray Brands (NASDAQ: TLRY) engages in cannabis research, cultivation, and distribution, offering a range of medical and recreational cannabis products, hemp-based foods, and alcoholic beverages.

Why Is TLRY Risky?

  1. Day-to-day expenses have swelled relative to revenue over the last year as its operating margin fell by 70.1 percentage points
  2. Incremental sales over the last three years were much less profitable as its earnings per share fell by 60.5% annually while its revenue grew
  3. Increased cash burn over the last year raises questions about the return timeline for its investments

Tilray is trading at $0.37 per share, or 4.7x forward EV-to-EBITDA. Check out our free in-depth research report to learn more about why TLRY doesn’t pass our bar.

Seacoast Banking (SBCF)

Market Cap: $2.12 billion

Founded during the Florida land boom of 1926 and surviving the Great Depression, Seacoast Banking Corporation of Florida (NASDAQ: SBCF) is a financial holding company that provides commercial and retail banking, wealth management, and mortgage services throughout Florida.

Why Do We Think Twice About SBCF?

  1. Annual revenue growth of 3.6% over the last two years was below our standards for the bank sector
  2. Performance over the past two years shows its incremental sales were much less profitable, as its earnings per share fell by 12% annually
  3. High debt servicing costs relative to its earnings leave little margin for error in meeting its financial obligations

At $25 per share, Seacoast Banking trades at 0.9x forward P/B. Dive into our free research report to see why there are better opportunities than SBCF.

One Small-Cap Stock to Watch:

Integral Ad Science (IAS)

Market Cap: $1.31 billion

Founded in 2009, Integral Ad Science (NASDAQ: IAS) provides digital advertising verification and optimization solutions, ensuring that ads are viewable by real people in brand-safe environments across various platforms and devices.

Why Do We Like IAS?

  1. Software platform has product-market fit given the rapid recovery of its customer acquisition costs
  2. Operating margin expanded by 11.3 percentage points over the last year as it scaled and became more efficient
  3. Impressive free cash flow profitability enables the company to fund new investments or reward investors with share buybacks/dividends

Integral Ad Science’s stock price of $8.30 implies a valuation ratio of 2.2x forward price-to-sales. Is now the right time to buy? Find out in our full research report, it’s free.
