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.

WWW Cover Image

What Happened?

Shares of footwear conglomerate Wolverine Worldwide (NYSE: WWW) jumped 11.7% in the afternoon session after the company posted strong second-quarter financial results that surpassed Wall Street's expectations. The footwear company reported that its revenue climbed 11.5% to $474.2 million, beating analysts' forecasts. This growth was driven by its Active Group, where the Saucony brand's sales surged an impressive 41.5%. Profitability also saw a major boost, with earnings per share landing at $0.35, easily topping the consensus estimate of $0.24 and more than doubling the figure from the same quarter last year. The company attributed the improved gross margin to a better sales mix, less promotional activity, and benefits from supply chain cost initiatives. Additionally, Wolverine strengthened its balance sheet, cutting its net debt by nearly 15% compared to the prior year.

What Is The Market Telling Us

Wolverine Worldwide’s shares are very volatile and have had 25 moves greater than 5% over the last year. But moves this big are rare even for Wolverine Worldwide and indicate this news significantly impacted the market’s perception of the business.

The previous big move we wrote about was 2 days ago when the stock gained 5.6% on the news that markets rebounded following a sharp sell-off in the previous trading session as weaker-than-expected U.S. jobs data fueled investor hopes for a potential interest rate cut by the Federal Reserve. The July Nonfarm Payrolls report revealed a gain of only 73,000 jobs, significantly below the 110,000 expected. Compounding the news, prior months' figures were revised downward by over 250,000 jobs. This data, indicating a cooling labor market, has led investors to dramatically increase bets on a September interest rate cut by the Federal Reserve, with the probability jumping to over 80% according to the CME FedWatch Tool. The prospect of lower borrowing costs typically stimulates economic activity and boosts consumer spending on non-essential goods and services, which directly benefits companies in the consumer discretionary space.

Wolverine Worldwide is up 18.6% since the beginning of the year, and at $26.81 per share, has set a new 52-week high. Investors who bought $1,000 worth of Wolverine Worldwide’s shares 5 years ago would now be looking at an investment worth $1,159.
