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.

Pure Storage (PSTG) Stock Is Up, What You Need To Know

PSTG Cover Image

What Happened?

Shares of data storage solutions provider Pure Storage (NYSE: PSTG) jumped 2.5% in the morning session after the stock hit an all-time high following a strong earnings report that prompted several Wall Street analysts to raise their price targets. 

The company delivered a "beat and raise" quarter, with revenue of $861 million. The report highlighted significant acceleration, with the product segment growing 11% compared to about 1% in the same period last year. Following the results, multiple analysts adjusted their outlooks. TD Cowen raised its price target to $85, noting that the company is generating revenue from Meta for storage deployments. Raymond James increased its target to $88, and Lake Street Capital Markets lifted its target to $80, citing consecutive quarters of revenue acceleration and improved margins.

After the initial pop the shares cooled down to $80.69, up 1.9% from previous close.

What Is The Market Telling Us

Pure Storage’s shares are very volatile and have had 23 moves greater than 5% over the last year. In that context, today’s move indicates the market considers this news meaningful but not something that would fundamentally change its perception of the business.

The previous big move we wrote about was 8 days ago when the stock dropped 1.4% on the news that the stock was caught in a broader tech-sector swoon as rising bond yields pressured Wall Street. The market kicked off September on a sour note, with a general slide in stocks and bonds. Yields on 30-year Treasuries neared 5%, which tends to negatively impact technology shares whose valuations are sensitive to interest rates. The pressure was felt across the market, with the S&P 500 losing 1% and all megacap tech stocks falling. Pure Storage's decline appears to be part of this wider market downturn rather than specific company news. Investors also reacted to a federal court ruling that most of President Trump's global tariffs were illegal, raising uncertainty over trade policy and the fiscal impact of potential refunds.

Pure Storage is up 29.1% since the beginning of the year, and at $80.69 per share, has set a new 52-week high. Investors who bought $1,000 worth of Pure Storage’s shares 5 years ago would now be looking at an investment worth $5,592.
