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.

Tesla (TSLA) Stock Trades Up, Here Is Why

TSLA Cover Image

What Happened?

Shares of electric vehicle pioneer Tesla (NASDAQ: TSLA) jumped 4.4% in the afternoon session after the company reported its second-quarter production and delivery numbers, which, despite a year-over-year decline, were not as low as some investors had feared. 

Tesla announced it delivered 384,122 vehicles in the second quarter. While this represents a 13.5% drop from the same period last year, the figure was roughly in line with, and slightly better than, the bleak expectations on Wall Street. Analysts had anticipated deliveries of around 385,000 to 387,000 vehicles. 

The market's positive reaction suggests a sense of relief, as some investors were bracing for a larger miss. The company produced over 410,000 vehicles during the quarter, indicating that production capability remains robust despite softening demand and increased competition. The report also highlighted a strong performance in its energy storage division, with 9.6 GWh deployed. 

After the initial pop the shares cooled down to $313.39, up 4.2% from previous close.

What The Market Is Telling Us

Tesla’s shares are extremely volatile and have had 132 moves greater than 2.5% over the last year. In that context, today’s move indicates the market considers this news meaningful but not something that would fundamentally change its perception of the business.

The previous big move we wrote about was a day ago when the stock dropped 5.5% as the company faced mounting concerns over its upcoming second-quarter delivery report and the potential impact of political tensions. 

Investors hit the brakes on Tesla ahead of its Q2 delivery numbers, with Wall Street analysts growing increasingly pessimistic. Consensus estimates steadily declined, with some analysts forecasting a significant year-over-year drop in vehicle deliveries. Projections ranged from 355,000 to just under 400,000 vehicles, a notable decrease from the more than 440,000 cars delivered in the previous year. This anticipated shortfall was attributed to several factors, including a sales slowdown in Europe and China, where competition grew. 

Adding to investor anxiety was a renewed public feud between CEO Elon Musk and President Donald Trump. The dispute raised concerns about the future of key EV tax credits, which were at risk of being eliminated under a new bill, potentially creating a significant headwind for U.S. sales.

Tesla is down 17.4% since the beginning of the year, and at $313.39 per share, it is trading 34.7% below its 52-week high of $479.86 from December 2024. Investors who bought $1,000 worth of Tesla’s shares 5 years ago would now be looking at an investment worth $3,889.
