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 Profitable Stock to Target This Week and 2 to Be Wary Of

EVER Cover Image

Not all profitable companies are built to last - some rely on outdated models or unsustainable advantages. Just because a business is in the green today doesn’t mean it will thrive tomorrow.

A business making money today isn’t necessarily a winner, which is why we analyze companies across multiple dimensions at StockStory. Keeping that in mind, here is one profitable company that generates reliable profits without sacrificing growth and two that may face some trouble.

Two Stocks to Sell:

EverQuote (EVER)

Trailing 12-Month GAAP Operating Margin: 6.6%

Aiming to simplify a once complicated process, EverQuote (NASDAQ: EVER) is an online insurance marketplace where consumers can compare and purchase various types of insurance from different providers

Why Are We Wary of EVER?

  1. High marketing expenses suggest it needs to spend heavily on new customer acquisition to sustain momentum

EverQuote is trading at $25.37 per share, or 12x forward EV/EBITDA. Dive into our free research report to see why there are better opportunities than EVER.

Hershey (HSY)

Trailing 12-Month GAAP Operating Margin: 20.5%

Best known for its milk chocolate bar and Hershey's Kisses, Hershey (NYSE: HSY) is an iconic company known for its chocolate products.

Why Does HSY Worry Us?

  1. Falling unit sales over the past two years indicate demand is soft and that the company may need to revise its product strategy
  2. Absence of organic revenue growth over the past two years suggests it may have to lean into acquisitions to drive its expansion
  3. Day-to-day expenses have swelled relative to revenue over the last year as its operating margin fell by 4.1 percentage points

At $161.75 per share, Hershey trades at 26.2x forward P/E. If you’re considering HSY for your portfolio, see our FREE research report to learn more.

One Stock to Buy:

Bloom Energy (BE)

Trailing 12-Month GAAP Operating Margin: 3.4%

Working in stealth mode for eight years, Bloom Energy (NYSE: BE) designs, manufactures, and markets solid oxide fuel cell systems for on-site power generation.

Why Will BE Outperform?

  1. Annual revenue growth of 14.5% over the past five years was outstanding, reflecting market share gains this cycle
  2. Incremental sales over the last two years have been highly profitable as its earnings per share increased by 68.2% annually, topping its revenue gains
  3. Free cash flow profile has moved into positive territory over the last five years, indicating the company has passed a significant test

Bloom Energy’s stock price of $21.80 implies a valuation ratio of 48.7x forward P/E. Is now the right time to buy? Find out in our full research report, it’s free.
