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.

Why Is Sunrun (RUN) Stock Rocketing Higher Today

RUN Cover Image

What Happened?

Shares of residential solar energy company Sunrun (NASDAQ: RUN) jumped 10.4% in the afternoon session after RBC Capital upgraded the stock to 'Outperform' from 'Sector Perform,' citing greater certainty around federal solar tax credits. 

RBC Capital raised its price target on the residential solar company to $16 from $12, attributing the move to increased certainty about long-term growth opportunities. The upgrade follows recently clarified U.S. Treasury guidance on the Investment Tax Credit (ITC), which the firm believes de-risks Sunrun's future. This is the latest in a series of bullish calls from Wall Street, with Wells Fargo, UBS, and JP Morgan also recently increasing their price targets. The positive sentiment is underpinned by Sunrun's strong second-quarter earnings report from early August, where the company shattered expectations by posting a surprise profit of $1.07 per share, decisively beating the consensus estimate for a loss.

What Is The Market Telling Us

Sunrun’s shares are extremely volatile and have had 78 moves greater than 5% over the last year. But moves this big are rare even for Sunrun and indicate this news significantly impacted the market’s perception of the business.

The previous big move we wrote about was 4 days ago when the stock dropped 4.6% on the news that an unexpectedly sharp rise in wholesale inflation fueled concerns about rising costs and their impact on corporate profits. The primary catalyst was the July 2025 Producer Price Index (PPI), a measure of inflation at the wholesale level, which jumped 0.9% against forecasts of a 0.2% rise. This represents the most significant monthly increase in over three years, pointing to mounting cost pressures for manufacturers, with tariffs cited as a key factor. This data complicates the Federal Reserve's upcoming interest rate decisions, as persistent inflation may prevent rate cuts, creating a headwind for cyclical sectors like Industrials.

Sunrun is up 47.6% since the beginning of the year, but at $15.07 per share, it is still trading 29.9% below its 52-week high of $21.50 from August 2024. Investors who bought $1,000 worth of Sunrun’s shares 5 years ago would now be looking at an investment worth $325.39.

Here at StockStory, we certainly understand the potential of thematic investing. Diverse winners from Microsoft (MSFT) to Alphabet (GOOG), Coca-Cola (KO) to Monster Beverage (MNST) could all have been identified as promising growth stories with a megatrend driving the growth. So, in that spirit, we’ve identified a relatively under-the-radar profitable growth stock benefiting from the rise of AI, available to you FREE via this link.
