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 Small-Cap Stock on Our Watchlist and 2 Facing Challenges

EHTH Cover Image

Many small-cap stocks have limited Wall Street coverage, giving savvy investors the chance to act before everyone else catches on. But the flip side is that these businesses have increased downside risk because they lack the scale and staying power of their larger competitors.

These trade-offs can cause headaches for even the most seasoned professionals, which is why we started StockStory - to help you separate the good companies from the bad. That said, here is one small-cap stock that could be the next 100 bagger and two that could be down big.

Two Small-Cap Stocks to Sell:

eHealth (EHTH)

Market Cap: $117.3 million

Aiming to address a high-stakes and often confusing decision, eHealth (NASDAQ: EHTH) guides consumers through health insurance enrollment and related topics.

Why Are We Wary of EHTH?

  1. Value proposition isn’t resonating strongly as its estimated membership averaged 2.2% drops over the last two years
  2. Estimated sales decline of 2.9% for the next 12 months implies a challenging demand environment
  3. Cash burn makes us question whether it can achieve sustainable long-term growth

eHealth is trading at $3.80 per share, or 2.9x forward EV/EBITDA. If you’re considering EHTH for your portfolio, see our FREE research report to learn more.

Hudson Technologies (HDSN)

Market Cap: $434.9 million

Founded in 1991, Hudson Technologies (NASDAQ: HDSN) specializes in refrigerant services and solutions, providing refrigerant sales, reclamation, and recycling.

Why Are We Hesitant About HDSN?

  1. Sales tumbled by 14.1% annually over the last two years, showing market trends are working against its favor during this cycle
  2. Earnings per share have dipped by 46.8% annually over the past two years, which is concerning because stock prices follow EPS over the long term
  3. Diminishing returns on capital suggest its earlier profit pools are drying up

At $9.96 per share, Hudson Technologies trades at 11.1x forward EV-to-EBITDA. To fully understand why you should be careful with HDSN, check out our full research report (it’s free).

One Small-Cap Stock to Watch:

Frost Bank (CFR)

Market Cap: $8.49 billion

Tracing its roots back to 1868 when it was founded during Texas's post-Civil War reconstruction era, Cullen/Frost Bankers (NYSE: CFR) operates Frost Bank, a Texas-based financial institution providing commercial and consumer banking, wealth management, and insurance services.

Why Does CFR Catch Our Eye?

  1. Annual net interest income growth of 12.1% over the past five years was outstanding, reflecting market share gains this cycle
  2. Net interest margin expanded by 30 basis points (100 basis points = 1 percentage point) over the last two years, providing additional flexibility for investments
  3. Impressive 25% annual tangible book value per share growth over the last two years indicates it’s building equity value this cycle

Frost Bank’s stock price of $131.92 implies a valuation ratio of 2x forward P/B. Is now the right time to buy? See for yourself in our comprehensive research report, it’s free.
