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 Quality Compounders with Exciting Potential

HOOD Cover Image

Quality compounders are flywheels. Said differently, they’re businesses that generate heaps of profits and consistently reinvest them to produce even more profits. Rinse and repeat.

Companies with these characteristics are our definition of a "blue-chip". That said, here are three quality compounders that could amplify your portfolio’s returns.

Robinhood (HOOD)

Market Cap: $88.78 billion

With a mission to democratize finance, Robinhood (NASDAQ: HOOD) is an online consumer finance platform known for its commission-free stock and crypto trading.

Why Do We Love HOOD?

  1. Customers are spending more money on its platform as its average revenue per user has increased by 40.9% annually over the last two years
  2. Additional sales over the last three years increased its profitability as the 54.6% annual growth in its earnings per share outpaced its revenue
  3. HOOD is a free cash flow machine with the flexibility to invest in growth initiatives or return capital to shareholders, and its improved cash conversion implies it’s becoming a less capital-intensive business

Robinhood’s stock price of $99.29 implies a valuation ratio of 42.8x forward EV/EBITDA. Is now the time to initiate a position? See for yourself in our in-depth research report, it’s free.

Comfort Systems (FIX)

Market Cap: $24.48 billion

Formed through the merger of 12 companies, Comfort Systems (NYSE: FIX) provides mechanical and electrical contracting services.

Why Will FIX Outperform?

  1. Backlog has averaged 29.5% growth over the past two years, showing it has a pipeline of unfulfilled orders that will support revenue in the future
  2. Share repurchases over the last two years enabled its annual earnings per share growth of 69.7% to outpace its revenue gains
  3. Returns on capital are growing as management capitalizes on its market opportunities

Comfort Systems is trading at $699.95 per share, or 34.8x forward P/E. Is now the right time to buy? Find out in our full research report, it’s free.

Reddit (RDDT)

Market Cap: $35.31 billion

Founded in 2005 by two University of Virginia roommates, Reddit (NYSE: RDDT) facilitates user-generated content across niche communities (called subreddits) that discuss anything from stocks to dating and memes.

Why Are We Backing RDDT?

  1. Domestic Daily Active Visitors have increased by an average of 33.7% annually, giving it the potential for margin-accretive growth if it can develop valuable complementary products and features
  2. Earnings per share grew by 38.6% annually over the last three years and trumped its peers
  3. Free cash flow margin grew by 35.1 percentage points over the last few years, giving the company more chips to play with

At $187.20 per share, Reddit trades at 49.2x forward EV/EBITDA. Is now a good time to buy? See for yourself in our full research report, it’s free.
