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 of Wall Street’s Favorite Stocks with Open Questions

QRHC Cover Image

Wall Street has set ambitious price targets for the stocks in this article. While this suggests attractive upside potential, it’s important to remain skeptical because analysts face institutional pressures that can sometimes lead to overly optimistic forecasts.

Luckily for you, we at StockStory have no conflicts of interest - our sole job is to help you find genuinely promising companies. Keeping that in mind, here are three stocks where Wall Street’s enthusiasm may be misplaced and some other investments worth exploring instead.

Quest Resource (QRHC)

Consensus Price Target: $3.08 (77.2% implied return)

Recycling corporate waste to help companies be more sustainable, Quest Resource (NASDAQ: QRHC) is a provider of waste and recycling services.

Why Are We Out on QRHC?

  1. Sales tumbled by 2.4% annually over the last two years, showing market trends are working against its favor during this cycle
  2. Waning returns on capital from an already weak starting point displays the inefficacy of management’s past and current investment decisions
  3. Depletion of cash reserves could lead to a fundraising event that triggers shareholder dilution

Quest Resource’s stock price of $1.74 implies a valuation ratio of 6.1x forward P/E. Read our free research report to see why you should think twice about including QRHC in your portfolio.

Regeneron (REGN)

Consensus Price Target: $716.78 (24.9% implied return)

Founded by scientists who wanted to build a company where science could thrive, Regeneron Pharmaceuticals (NASDAQ: REGN) develops and commercializes medicines for serious diseases, with key products treating eye conditions, allergic diseases, cancer, and other disorders.

Why Is REGN Not Exciting?

  1. Annual sales growth of 5.9% over the last two years lagged behind its healthcare peers as its large revenue base made it difficult to generate incremental demand
  2. Efficiency has decreased over the last five years as its adjusted operating margin fell by 21.4 percentage points
  3. Waning returns on capital imply its previous profit engines are losing steam

Regeneron is trading at $574 per share, or 15.8x forward P/E. To fully understand why you should be careful with REGN, check out our full research report (it’s free).

Robert Half (RHI)

Consensus Price Target: $43.67 (21.5% implied return)

With roots dating back to 1948 as the first specialized recruiting firm for accounting and finance professionals, Robert Half (NYSE: RHI) provides specialized talent solutions and business consulting services, connecting skilled professionals with companies across various fields.

Why Do We Avoid RHI?

  1. Sales stagnated over the last five years and signal the need for new growth strategies
  2. Earnings per share fell by 11.3% annually over the last five years while its revenue was flat, showing each sale was less profitable
  3. Diminishing returns on capital suggest its earlier profit pools are drying up

At $35.94 per share, Robert Half trades at 15.9x forward P/E. Check out our free in-depth research report to learn more about why RHI doesn’t pass our bar.
