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 Market-Beating Stocks to Consider Right Now

By: StockStory

TTEK Cover Image

Stocks that outperform the market usually share key traits such as rising sales, expanding margins, and increasing returns on capital. The select few that can do all three for many years are often the ones that make you life-changing money.

It’s clear there’s a strong connection between sustained earnings growth and hall-of-fame returns. Taking that into account, here are three market-beating stocks that could turbocharge your returns.

Tetra Tech (TTEK)

Five-Year Return: +99.6%

With a 50-year legacy of "Leading with Science" and operations on all seven continents, Tetra Tech (NASDAQ: TTEK) provides high-end consulting and engineering services focused on water management, environmental solutions, and sustainable infrastructure for government and commercial clients worldwide.

Why Are We Fans of TTEK?

  1. Annual revenue growth of 15.8% over the last two years was superb and indicates its market share increased during this cycle
  2. Sales pipeline is in good shape as its backlog averaged 10.2% growth over the past two years
  3. Robust free cash flow margin of 9.8% gives it many options for capital deployment

Tetra Tech’s stock price of $36.56 implies a valuation ratio of 24.9x forward P/E. Is now the time to initiate a position? Find out in our full research report, it’s free.

BancFirst (BANF)

Five-Year Return: +185%

Operating as a "super community bank" with a decentralized management approach that emphasizes local responsiveness, BancFirst Corporation (NASDAQ: BANF) operates as a financial holding company providing commercial banking services to retail customers and small to medium-sized businesses primarily in Oklahoma and Texas.

Why Does BANF Catch Our Eye?

  1. Solid 8.7% annual revenue growth over the last five years indicates its offering’s solve complex business issues
  2. Performance over the past five years shows its incremental sales were extremely profitable, as its annual earnings per share growth of 15% outpaced its revenue gains
  3. Impressive 11% annual tangible book value per share growth over the last five years indicates it’s building equity value this cycle

At $122.87 per share, BancFirst trades at 2.3x forward P/B. Is now the right time to buy? See for yourself in our comprehensive research report, it’s free.

First Citizens BancShares (FCNCA)

Five-Year Return: +370%

With roots dating back to 1898 and a significant expansion through its 2023 acquisition of Silicon Valley Bank, First Citizens BancShares (NASDAQGS:FCNC.A) is a bank holding company that provides financial services to individuals and businesses through its First-Citizens Bank & Trust Company subsidiary.

Why Does FCNCA Stand Out?

  1. Market share has increased this cycle as its 37.8% annual net interest income growth over the last five years was exceptional
  2. Share repurchases over the last two years enabled its annual earnings per share growth of 23.2% to outpace its revenue gains
  3. Annual tangible book value per share growth of 36.8% over the last five years was superb and indicates its capital strength increased during this cycle

First Citizens BancShares is trading at $1,922 per share, or 1.1x forward P/B. Is now the time to initiate a position? Find out in our full research report, it’s free.
