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.

2 Volatile Stocks to Keep an Eye On and 1 We Find Risky

S Cover Image

Volatility cuts both ways - while it creates opportunities, it also increases risk, making sharp declines just as likely as big gains. This unpredictability can shake out even the most experienced investors.

These stocks can be a rollercoaster, and StockStory is here to guide you through the ups and downs. Keeping that in mind, here are two volatile stocks that could reward patient investors and one that could just as easily collapse.

One Stock to Sell:

ePlus (PLUS)

Rolling One-Year Beta: 1.30

Starting as a financing company in 1990 before evolving into a full-service technology provider, ePlus (NASDAQ: PLUS) provides comprehensive IT solutions, professional services, and financing options to help organizations optimize their technology infrastructure and supply chain processes.

Why Do We Steer Clear of PLUS?

  1. Flat sales over the last two years suggest it must find different ways to grow during this cycle
  2. Projected sales growth of 3.2% for the next 12 months suggests sluggish demand
  3. Falling earnings per share over the last two years has some investors worried as stock prices ultimately follow EPS over the long term

At $71.73 per share, ePlus trades at 13.8x forward EV-to-EBITDA. Dive into our free research report to see why there are better opportunities than PLUS.

Two Stocks to Watch:

SentinelOne (S)

Rolling One-Year Beta: 1.35

Built on the principle of "fighting machine with machine," SentinelOne (NYSE: S) provides an AI-powered cybersecurity platform that autonomously prevents, detects, and responds to threats across endpoints, cloud workloads, and identity systems.

Why Are We Fans of S?

  1. ARR growth averaged 28.1% over the last year, showing customers are willing to take multi-year bets on its software
  2. Sales outlook for the upcoming 12 months implies the business will stay on its desirable three-year growth trajectory
  3. Free cash flow margin is anticipated to expand by 7 percentage points over the next year, providing additional flexibility for investments and share buybacks/dividends

SentinelOne’s stock price of $16.76 implies a valuation ratio of 5.2x forward price-to-sales. Is now a good time to buy? See for yourself in our comprehensive research report, it’s free.

Netflix (NFLX)

Rolling One-Year Beta: 1.26

Launched by Reed Hastings as a DVD mail rental company until its famous pivot to streaming in 2007, Netflix (NASDAQ: NFLX) is a pioneering streaming content platform.

Why Is NFLX a Good Business?

  1. Global Streaming Paid Memberships have grown by 13.9% annually, allowing for more profitable cross-selling opportunities if it can build complementary products and features
  2. Share repurchases have amplified shareholder returns as its annual earnings per share growth of 27.8% exceeded its revenue gains over the last three years
  3. Free cash flow margin jumped by 19.9 percentage points over the last few years, giving the company more resources to pursue growth initiatives, repurchase shares, or pay dividends

Netflix is trading at $1,208 per share, or 35x forward EV/EBITDA. Is now the time to initiate a position? Find out in our full research report, it’s free.
