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.

Why Are RingCentral (RNG) Shares Soaring Today

What Happened?

Shares of office and call centre communications software provider RingCentral (NYSE: RNG) jumped 25.6% in the afternoon session after the company reported better-than-expected second-quarter financial results, raised its full-year profit forecast, and received an analyst upgrade. The business communications provider announced revenue of $620 million and adjusted earnings of $1.06 per share, both of which beat Wall Street's forecasts. Based on the strong quarter, RingCentral lifted its full-year earnings guidance. The positive report prompted Oppenheimer to upgrade the stock to "Outperform" with a $35 price target. Adding to the good news, the company also achieved positive GAAP net income for the first time in its history and announced an expanded partnership with AT&T.

What Is The Market Telling Us

RingCentral’s shares are quite volatile and have had 18 moves greater than 5% over the last year. But moves this big are rare even for RingCentral and indicate this news significantly impacted the market’s perception of the business.

The previous big move we wrote about was 5 days ago when the stock gained 6.6% on the news that the company announced an expanded partnership with AT&T, amid a broader rally in software stocks. 

The collaboration introduced new AI-powered tools to AT&T's business communications portfolio, including RingCentral's contact center and conversational intelligence solutions. These additions were designed to help businesses improve customer experiences. The positive company news was amplified by a favorable market environment for Software as a Service (SaaS) stocks. A weaker-than-expected U.S. jobs report increased investor expectations for a Federal Reserve interest rate cut, which generally boosted valuations for growth sectors like technology.

RingCentral is down 15.2% since the beginning of the year, and at $29.55 per share, it is trading 29.4% below its 52-week high of $41.82 from December 2024. Investors who bought $1,000 worth of RingCentral’s shares 5 years ago would now be looking at an investment worth $102.84.
