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.

Red Robin (RRGB) Stock Trades Up, Here Is Why

RRGB Cover Image

What Happened?

Shares of burger restaurant chain Red Robin (NASDAQ: RRGB) jumped 7.8% in the afternoon session after it was among a group of consumer stocks with high short interest that rallied. 

The move was part of a broader trend where investors targeted companies with a significant number of bearish bets against them. This dynamic can sometimes lead to a "short squeeze," an event where a rising stock price forces short-sellers to buy back shares to cover their positions, which in turn pushes the stock even higher. Red Robin, which has a notable level of short interest, appeared to be caught in this momentum. Reports indicated there was no major company-specific news to account for the rally, suggesting the surge was driven more by retail investor enthusiasm and market positioning than by a change in the company's fundamental outlook.

What Is The Market Telling Us

Red Robin’s shares are extremely volatile and have had 69 moves greater than 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 8 days ago when the stock gained 9.5% on the news that the casual dining chain announced its "First Choice" strategic plan and an improved profitability forecast for the second quarter. The company unveiled its new "First Choice" plan, a five-point strategy focused on strengthening operations, driving customer traffic, managing costs to reduce debt, improving restaurant facilities, and fostering a high-performance culture. While Red Robin now expects a comparable restaurant sales decrease of about 4% for the second quarter, slightly worse than its previous forecast, it anticipates that its Adjusted EBITDA will come in higher than the prior guidance of $13 million to $16 million. EBITDA, which stands for Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation, and Amortization, is a key measure of a company's operating performance.

Red Robin is up 32.4% since the beginning of the year, and at $7.51 per share, has set a new 52-week high. Investors who bought $1,000 worth of Red Robin’s shares 5 years ago would now be looking at an investment worth $928.84.
