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.

2 Cash-Producing Stocks Worth Your Attention and 1 We Brush Off

WK Cover Image

Generating cash is essential for any business, but not all cash-rich companies are great investments. Some produce plenty of cash but fail to allocate it effectively, leading to missed opportunities.

Not all companies are created equal, and StockStory is here to surface the ones with real upside. That said, here are two cash-producing companies that reinvest wisely to drive long-term success and one that may face some trouble.

One Stock to Sell:

Wolverine Worldwide (WWW)

Trailing 12-Month Free Cash Flow Margin: 6.3%

Founded in 1883, Wolverine Worldwide (NYSE: WWW) is a global footwear company with a diverse portfolio of brands including Merrell, Hush Puppies, and Saucony.

Why Do We Steer Clear of WWW?

  1. Sales tumbled by 4.1% annually over the last five years, showing consumer trends are working against its favor
  2. Earnings per share decreased by more than its revenue over the last five years, showing each sale was less profitable
  3. Negative returns on capital show management lost money while trying to expand the business

Wolverine Worldwide’s stock price of $23.24 implies a valuation ratio of 21x forward P/E. Read our free research report to see why you should think twice about including WWW in your portfolio.

Two Stocks to Watch:

Workiva (WK)

Trailing 12-Month Free Cash Flow Margin: 7%

Founded in 2010, Workiva (NYSE: WK) offers software as a service product that makes financial and compliance reporting easier, especially for publicly traded corporations.

Why Could WK Be a Winner?

  1. Ability to secure long-term commitments with customers is evident in its 19.5% ARR growth over the last year
  2. Sales outlook for the upcoming 12 months implies the business will have more momentum than most peers
  3. Superior software functionality and low servicing costs result in a premier gross margin of 76.7%

Workiva is trading at $67.99 per share, or 4.2x forward price-to-sales. Is now a good time to buy? Find out in our full research report, it’s free.

Energy Recovery (ERII)

Trailing 12-Month Free Cash Flow Margin: 17.1%

Having saved far more than a trillion gallons of water, Energy Recovery (NASDAQ: ERII) provides energy recovery devices to the water treatment, oil and gas, and chemical processing sectors.

Why Is ERII a Top Pick?

  1. Annual revenue growth of 15.1% over the past two years was outstanding, reflecting market share gains this cycle
  2. Superior product capabilities and pricing power are reflected in its best-in-class gross margin of 69.4%
  3. Share repurchases have amplified shareholder returns as its annual earnings per share growth of 71.9% exceeded its revenue gains over the last two years

At $13.88 per share, Energy Recovery trades at 17x forward P/E. Is now the right time to buy? See for yourself in our full research report, it’s free.
