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.

ENR Cover Image

What Happened?

Shares of battery and lighting company Energizer (NYSE: ENR) jumped 24.6% in the afternoon session after the company reported third-quarter results that significantly beat analyst expectations and raised its full-year financial outlook. 

The battery maker posted adjusted earnings of $1.13 per share, which demolished analyst estimates of around $0.62. Revenue also grew 3.4% to $725.3 million, beating Wall Street forecasts. The strong performance stemmed from a company initiative called "Project Momentum," which improved margins and operational efficiency. Energizer's adjusted gross margin improved to 44.8% from 41.5% a year ago. Following these results, the company raised its full-year guidance, forecasting adjusted earnings between $3.55 and $3.65 per share and adjusted EBITDA from $630 million to $640 million.

What Is The Market Telling Us

Energizer’s shares are not very volatile and have only had 9 moves greater than 5% over the last year. Moves this big are rare for Energizer and indicate this news significantly impacted the market’s perception of the business.

The previous big move we wrote about was 18 days ago when the stock gained 5.4% after the release of strong U.S. economic data that pointed to a resilient consumer, lifting stocks across the consumer staples sector. 

The broader market rallied after new data showed unexpected strength in the U.S. economy, easing investor concerns about a potential recession. Reports indicated that consumer spending at retailers was stronger than anticipated, and unemployment claims fell, signaling a steady job market. This combination of robust retail sales and a solid labor market suggests consumers have more capacity for spending on household goods. For a company like Energizer, which manufactures essential items like batteries, this is a positive sign of stable demand. 

Also, the second quarter (2025) earnings season got off to a strong start. Quarterly earnings reports released during the week exceeded Wall Street's expectations, fueling investor confidence. Around 50 S&P 500 components reported, with 88% of those exceeding analysts' expectations, FactSet data revealed.

Energizer is down 20.6% since the beginning of the year, and at $27.47 per share, it is trading 30.3% below its 52-week high of $39.39 from December 2024. Investors who bought $1,000 worth of Energizer’s shares 5 years ago would now be looking at an investment worth $518.50.
