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

AAPL 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.

Long story short, there is a near-perfect correlation between consistent earnings growth and huge winners. Keeping that in mind, here are three market-beating stocks that deserve a spot on your list.

Apple (AAPL)

Five-Year Return: +111%

Creator of the iPhone and App Store, Apple (NASDAQ: AAPL) is a legendary developer of consumer electronics and software.

Why Are We Fans of AAPL?

  1. Apple's revenue base is so large because nearly everyone in the U.S. has an iPhone, but this is a double-edged sword. Growth must now come from upgrades, a harder pitch that has resulted in sluggish top-line performance recently.
  2. Still, Apple's devices have endured for decades, speaking to its brand, design ethos, and technological chops. Its success is rare in the world of consumer electronics, which is fraught because of commoditization, competition, and obsolescence risk.
  3. The company may not have the best gross margin because of its hardware orientation, but it still manages to produce elite operating and free cash flow margins. This shows it doesn’t need over-the-top marketing campaigns to convince people to buy its products.

Apple is trading at $236.32 per share, or 31.7x forward price-to-earnings. Is now the right time to buy? Find out in our full research report, it’s free.

Cintas (CTAS)

Five-Year Return: +145%

Starting as a family business collecting and cleaning shop rags in Cincinnati, Cintas (NASDAQ: CTAS) provides corporate identity uniforms, facility services, and safety products to over one million businesses across North America.

Why Will CTAS Beat the Market?

  1. Solid 8.3% annual revenue growth over the last two years indicates its offering’s solve complex business issues
  2. Share repurchases over the last five years enabled its annual earnings per share growth of 16.7% to outpace its revenue gains
  3. CTAS is a free cash flow machine with the flexibility to invest in growth initiatives or return capital to shareholders

Cintas’s stock price of $199.45 implies a valuation ratio of 41.1x forward P/E. Is now the time to initiate a position? See for yourself in our full research report, it’s free.

OFG Bancorp (OFG)

Five-Year Return: +235%

Originally founded in 1964 as a federal savings and loan institution, OFG Bancorp (NYSE: OFG) provides banking and financial services including commercial and consumer lending, wealth management, insurance, and trust services primarily in Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands.

Why Do We Like OFG?

  1. Efficiency ratio improved by 10.5 percentage points over the last four years as it scaled
  2. Share repurchases have amplified shareholder returns as its annual earnings per share growth of 6.3% exceeded its revenue gains over the last two years
  3. Annual tangible book value per share growth of 11.8% over the past five years was outstanding, reflecting strong capital accumulation this cycle

At $43.60 per share, OFG Bancorp trades at 1.4x forward P/B. Is now a good time to buy? Find out in our full research report, it’s free.
