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.

Integral Ad Science delivered a quarter that exceeded Wall Street’s expectations, driven by robust adoption of its AI-enabled ad verification and optimization solutions across key channels. Management pointed to strong momentum in connected TV (CTV) and social measurement offerings, with CEO Lisa Utzschneider highlighting expanded partnerships and wins in international markets. Utzschneider credited ongoing investment in artificial intelligence infrastructure and enhanced product offerings as central to the company’s ability to secure new customers and deepen existing relationships. Notably, Prebid Social Optimization and new CTV solutions contributed significantly to customer retention and growth, while recent partnerships, such as the two-year expansion with Samsung and new agreements in EMEA and APAC, underpinned the quarter’s outperformance.

While we enjoy listening to the management's commentary, our favorite part of earnings calls are the analyst questions. Those are unscripted and can often highlight topics that management teams would rather avoid or topics where the answer is complicated. Here is what has caught our attention.

Our Top 5 Analyst Questions From Integral Ad Science’s Q2 Earnings Call

  • Andrew Jordan Marok (Raymond James) asked about progress with Oracle customer onboarding and upselling. CEO Lisa Utzschneider reported strong momentum and high renewal rates, with a focus on cross-selling optimization solutions to new accounts.

  • Andrew Jordan Marok (Raymond James) followed up on Social Optimization adoption, questioning whether the product reached a point of critical mass. Utzschneider noted doubled adoption rates among advertisers, especially in EMEA, and highlighted a new Meta partnership for ThreadsFeed measurement.

  • James Edward Heaney (Jefferies) inquired about drivers of publisher segment growth and its future outlook. Utzschneider pointed to expanded OEM partnerships, adoption of new CTV products, and international customer wins as key factors supporting continued double-digit growth.

  • Youssef Houssaini Squali (Truist Securities) asked for detail on growth trends by business line and international markets. CFO Alpana Wegner and Utzschneider described high-single-digit growth in measurement, mid-teens in optimization, and strength in EMEA and APAC, with emerging market expansion highlighted.

  • Jacob Armstrong (Key) questioned the drivers behind optimization pricing and volume trends. Utzschneider explained that premium pricing was sustained by adoption of QSP products, and strong results were seen across major demand-side platforms like Google DV360 and Amazon.

Catalysts in Upcoming Quarters

In the coming quarters, the StockStory team will be tracking (1) further adoption and upselling within the Oracle customer base, (2) the impact of expanded partnerships and product integrations with platforms such as Meta, Lyft, and StackAdapt, and (3) sustained growth in the publisher and optimization segments, especially as new CTV and social products are rolled out globally. Execution on international expansion plans and continued gross margin improvement will also be key signposts for ongoing performance.
