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 Oversold Stock Primed to Rebound and 2 We Turn Down

IOT Cover Image

The past year hasn't been kind to the stocks featured in this article. Each has tumbled to their lowest points in 12 months, leaving investors to decide whether they're witnessing fire sales or falling knives.

While market timing can be an extremely profitable strategy, it has burned many investors and requires rigorous analysis - something we specialize in at StockStory. Keeping that in mind, here is one stock where you should be greedy instead of fearful and two where the outlook is warranted.

Two Stocks to Sell:

Freshpet (FRPT)

One-Month Return: -11.7%

Standing out from typical processed pet foods, Freshpet (NASDAQ: FRPT) is a pet food company whose product portfolio includes natural meals and treats for dogs and cats.

Why Does FRPT Fall Short?

  1. Modest revenue base of $1.04 billion gives it less fixed cost leverage and fewer distribution channels than larger companies
  2. Cash-burning history makes us doubt the long-term viability of its business model
  3. Negative returns on capital show that some of its growth strategies have backfired

At $62.49 per share, Freshpet trades at 40.6x forward P/E. To fully understand why you should be careful with FRPT, check out our full research report (it’s free).

Hyster-Yale Materials Handling (HY)

One-Month Return: -10.9%

Playing a significant role in the development of the hydraulic lift truck, Hyster-Yale (NYSE: HY) designs, manufactures, and sells materials handling equipment to various sectors.

Why Do We Steer Clear of HY?

  1. Sales were flat over the last two years, indicating it’s failed to expand this cycle
  2. Sales are projected to tank by 6.9% over the next 12 months as demand evaporates further
  3. Performance over the past five years was negatively impacted by new share issuances as its earnings per share were flat while its revenue grew

Hyster-Yale Materials Handling’s stock price of $39.04 implies a valuation ratio of 6.2x forward EV-to-EBITDA. Dive into our free research report to see why there are better opportunities than HY.

One Stock to Buy:

Samsara (IOT)

One-Month Return: -10.7%

From sensors on vehicles to AI-powered cameras that help prevent accidents, Samsara (NYSE: IOT) is a cloud-based Internet of Things platform that helps businesses improve the safety, efficiency, and sustainability of their physical operations.

Why Are We Backing IOT?

  1. Customers view its software as mission-critical to their operations as its ARR has averaged 33.3% growth over the last year
  2. Expected revenue growth of 22.1% for the next year suggests its market share will rise
  3. Operating margin improvement of 19.2 percentage points over the last year demonstrates its ability to scale efficiently

Samsara is trading at $34.80 per share, or 12.1x forward price-to-sales. Is now the time to initiate a position? Find out in our full research report, it’s free.
