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 Cash-Heavy Stocks with Competitive Advantages

SEMR Cover Image

Companies with more cash than debt often have stronger financial flexibility, making them attractive in uncertain markets. Without interest payments being less of a worry, these businesses can invest more in growth, innovation, or buybacks and dividends.

Finding the best investments isn’t always easy, and that’s why we started StockStory. That said, here are three companies with net cash positions that can continue growing sustainably.

Semrush (SEMR)

Net Cash Position: $248 million (16.6% of Market Cap)

Started by Oleg Shchegolev while still in university, Semrush (NYSE: SEMR) is a software-as-a-service platform that helps companies optimize their search engine and content marketing efforts.

Why Does SEMR Stand Out?

  1. Winning new contracts that can potentially increase in value as its billings growth has averaged 24.8% over the last year
  2. Forecasted revenue growth of 18.7% for the next 12 months indicates its momentum over the last three years is sustainable
  3. Software is difficult to replicate at scale and results in a premier gross margin of 82.1%

Semrush is trading at $10.11 per share, or 3.2x forward price-to-sales. Is now the right time to buy? See for yourself in our in-depth research report, it’s free.

Axon (AXON)

Net Cash Position: $360.3 million (0.6% of Market Cap)

Providing body cameras and tasers for first responders, AXON (NASDAQ: AXON) develops technology solutions and weapons products for military, law enforcement, and civilians.

Why Are We Backing AXON?

  1. Unit sales averaged 32% growth over the past two years and imply healthy demand for its products
  2. Free cash flow margin jumped by 20.3 percentage points over the last five years, giving the company more resources to pursue growth initiatives, repurchase shares, or pay dividends
  3. Historical investments are beginning to pay off as its returns on capital are growing

At $790.48 per share, Axon trades at 132.5x forward P/E. Is now the time to initiate a position? Find out in our full research report, it’s free.

ResMed (RMD)

Net Cash Position: $92.94 million (0.3% of Market Cap)

Founded in 1989 to address the then-underdiagnosed condition of sleep apnea, ResMed (NYSE: RMD) develops cloud-connected medical devices and software solutions that treat sleep apnea, COPD, and other respiratory disorders for home and clinical use.

Why Are We Fans of RMD?

  1. Constant currency growth averaged 12% over the past two years, showing it can expand globally regardless of the macroeconomic environment
  2. Performance over the past five years shows its incremental sales were extremely profitable, as its annual earnings per share growth of 15.7% outpaced its revenue gains
  3. Free cash flow margin expanded by 7.1 percentage points over the last five years, providing additional flexibility for investments and share buybacks/dividends

ResMed’s stock price of $249.69 implies a valuation ratio of 24.6x forward P/E. Is now a good time to buy? See for yourself in our full research report, it’s free.
