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.

TTD Cover Image

What Happened?

Shares of advertising software maker The Trade Desk (NASDAQ: TTD) fell 39% in the morning session after the company released its second-quarter earnings report, which, despite beating revenue expectations, was overshadowed by in-line third-quarter guidance and the announcement of a CFO departure. Further,. CEO Jeff Green said that "from a macro standpoint, some of the world's largest brands are absolutely facing pressure and some amount of uncertainty". This added more uncertainty to the near-term performance of TTD.

What Is The Market Telling Us

The Trade Desk’s shares are very volatile and have had 23 moves greater than 5% over the last year. But moves this big are rare even for The Trade Desk and indicate this news significantly impacted the market’s perception of the business.

The previous big move we wrote about was 4 days ago when the stock gained 3.7% on the news that an analyst at BTIG reaffirmed a 'Buy' rating and raised the price target on the stock. BTIG analyst Clark Lampen lifted the firm's price target to $97 from $79, citing a stabilized or improved digital advertising market. The analyst noted that adoption of the company's Kokai platform, along with better representative engagement, drove market share gains for the ad-tech firm. The positive move also occurred amid a broader rally in software stocks. A weaker-than-expected jobs report increased market expectations for a Federal Reserve interest rate cut, a development that generally boosted valuations for growth sectors like technology.

The Trade Desk is down 53.4% since the beginning of the year, and at $54.92 per share, it is trading 60.6% below its 52-week high of $139.51 from December 2024. Investors who bought $1,000 worth of The Trade Desk’s shares 5 years ago would now be looking at an investment worth $1,179.

Unless you’ve been living under a rock, it should be obvious by now that generative AI is going to have a huge impact on how large corporations do business. While Nvidia and AMD are trading close to all-time highs, we prefer a lesser-known (but still profitable) semiconductor stock benefiting from the rise of AI.
