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 Safe-and-Steady Stock with Competitive Advantages and 2 That Underwhelm

INTU Cover Image

Stability is great, but low-volatility stocks may struggle to deliver market-beating returns over time as they sometimes underperform during bull markets.

Luckily for you, StockStory helps you navigate which companies are truly worth holding. Keeping that in mind, here is one low-volatility stock that could succeed under all market conditions and two that may not deliver the returns you need.

Two Stocks to Sell:

Hudson Technologies (HDSN)

Rolling One-Year Beta: 0.76

Founded in 1991, Hudson Technologies (NASDAQ: HDSN) specializes in refrigerant services and solutions, providing refrigerant sales, reclamation, and recycling.

Why Are We Hesitant About HDSN?

  1. Products and services are facing significant end-market challenges during this cycle as sales have declined by 14.1% annually over the last two years
  2. Earnings per share have contracted by 46.8% annually over the last two years, a headwind for returns as stock prices often echo long-term EPS performance
  3. Eroding returns on capital suggest its historical profit centers are aging

At $9.60 per share, Hudson Technologies trades at 10.6x forward EV-to-EBITDA. Dive into our free research report to see why there are better opportunities than HDSN.

Bausch + Lomb (BLCO)

Rolling One-Year Beta: 0.85

With a nearly 170-year history dedicated to vision care and eye health innovation, Bausch + Lomb (NYSE: BLCO) develops and manufactures a comprehensive range of eye health products including contact lenses, pharmaceuticals, surgical devices, and consumer eye care solutions.

Why Do We Think Twice About BLCO?

  1. Muted 7.2% annual revenue growth over the last five years shows its demand lagged behind its healthcare peers
  2. Free cash flow margin dropped by 23.9 percentage points over the last five years, implying the company became more capital intensive as competition picked up
  3. Depletion of cash reserves could lead to a fundraising event that triggers shareholder dilution

Bausch + Lomb is trading at $14.08 per share, or 16.7x forward P/E. To fully understand why you should be careful with BLCO, check out our full research report (it’s free).

One Stock to Watch:

Intuit (INTU)

Rolling One-Year Beta: 0.59

Created in 1983 when founder Scott Cook watched his wife struggle to reconcile the family's checkbook, Intuit provides tax and accounting software for small and medium-sized businesses.

Why Does INTU Stand Out?

  1. Average billings growth of 15.8% over the last year enhances its liquidity and shows there is steady demand for its products
  2. Software platform has product-market fit given the rapid recovery of its customer acquisition costs
  3. INTU is a free cash flow machine with the flexibility to invest in growth initiatives or return capital to shareholders

Intuit’s stock price of $711.50 implies a valuation ratio of 9.7x forward price-to-sales. Is now the time to initiate a position? Find out in our full research report, it’s free.
