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.

3 Stocks Under $50 We Approach with Caution

CWH Cover Image

The $10-50 price range often includes mid-sized businesses with proven track records and plenty of growth runway ahead. They also usually carry less risk than penny stocks, though they’re not immune to volatility as many lack the scale advantages of their larger peers.

Luckily for you, our mission at StockStory is to help you make money and avoid losses by sorting the winners from the losers. That said, here are three stocks under $50 to swipe left on and some alternatives you should look into instead.

Camping World (CWH)

Share Price: $17.43

Founded in 1966 as a single recreational vehicle (RV) dealership, Camping World (NYSE: CWH) still sells RVs along with boats and general merchandise for outdoor activities.

Why Are We Cautious About CWH?

  1. Poor same-store sales performance over the past two years indicates it’s having trouble bringing new shoppers into its brick-and-mortar locations
  2. Earnings per share have dipped by 43.4% annually over the past five years, which is concerning because stock prices follow EPS over the long term
  3. High net-debt-to-EBITDA ratio of 8× increases the risk of forced asset sales or dilutive financing if operational performance weakens

Camping World’s stock price of $17.43 implies a valuation ratio of 17.6x forward P/E. Check out our free in-depth research report to learn more about why CWH doesn’t pass our bar.

Malibu Boats (MBUU)

Share Price: $36.48

Founded in California in 1982, Malibu Boats (NASDAQ: MBUU) is a manufacturer of high-performance sports boats and luxury watercrafts.

Why Do We Steer Clear of MBUU?

  1. Sluggish trends in its boats sold suggest customers aren’t adopting its solutions as quickly as the company hoped
  2. Earnings per share fell by 17.4% annually over the last five years while its revenue was flat, showing each sale was less profitable
  3. Eroding returns on capital from an already low base indicate that management’s recent investments are destroying value

At $36.48 per share, Malibu Boats trades at 12.2x forward P/E. Read our free research report to see why you should think twice about including MBUU in your portfolio.

Insteel (IIIN)

Share Price: $37.24

Growing from a small wire manufacturer to one of the largest in the U.S., Insteel (NYSE: IIIN) provides steel wire reinforcing products for concrete.

Why Does IIIN Fall Short?

  1. Annual sales declines of 7% for the past two years show its products and services struggled to connect with the market during this cycle
  2. Sales were less profitable over the last two years as its earnings per share fell by 19.5% annually, worse than its revenue declines
  3. Waning returns on capital imply its previous profit engines are losing steam

Insteel is trading at $37.24 per share, or 14.4x forward P/E. To fully understand why you should be careful with IIIN, check out our full research report (it’s free).
