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.

1 Nasdaq 100 Stock Worth Investigating and 2 Facing Challenges

TTWO Cover Image

The Nasdaq 100 (^NDX) is known for housing some of the most innovative and fastest-growing companies in the market. But not every stock in the index is a winner - some are struggling with slowing growth, increasing competition, or unsustainable valuations.

Investing in Nasdaq 100 stocks isn’t just about picking big names - it’s about finding the right ones, and that’s where StockStory comes in. That said, here is one Nasdaq 100 stock that could lead the market and two that may face some trouble.

Two Stocks to Sell:

Analog Devices (ADI)

Market Cap: $120.1 billion

Founded by two MIT graduates, Ray Stata and Matthew Lorber in 1965, Analog Devices (NASDAQ: ADI) is one of the largest providers of high performance analog integrated circuits used mainly in industrial end markets, along with communications, autos, and consumer devices.

Why Are We Wary of ADI?

  1. Customers postponed purchases of its products and services this cycle as its revenue declined by 10.1% annually over the last two years
  2. Expenses have increased as a percentage of revenue over the last five years as its operating margin fell by 7 percentage points
  3. ROIC of 6.5% reflects management’s challenges in identifying attractive investment opportunities, and its shrinking returns suggest its past profit sources are losing steam

Analog Devices’s stock price of $245.01 implies a valuation ratio of 28.8x forward P/E. Check out our free in-depth research report to learn more about why ADI doesn’t pass our bar.

Intel (INTC)

Market Cap: $117.5 billion

Inventor of the x86 processor that powered decades of technological innovation in PCs, data centers, and numerous other markets, Intel (NASDAQ: INTC) is a leading manufacturer of computer processors and graphics chips.

Why Should You Sell INTC?

  1. Annual sales declines of 7.6% for the past five years show its products and services struggled to connect with the market during this cycle
  2. Inability to adjust its cost structure while its revenue declined over the last five years led to a 49.2 percentage point drop in the company’s operating margin
  3. Free cash flow margin shrank by 39.4 percentage points over the last five years, suggesting the company is consuming more capital to stay competitive

Intel is trading at $25.26 per share, or 80.7x forward P/E. Dive into our free research report to see why there are better opportunities than INTC.

One Stock to Watch:

Take-Two (TTWO)

Market Cap: $45.7 billion

Best known for its Grand Theft Auto and NBA 2K franchises, Take Two (NASDAQ: TTWO) is one of the world’s largest video game publishers.

Why Does TTWO Catch Our Eye?

  1. Annual revenue growth of 15.2% over the last three years beat the sector average and underscores the popularity of its platform
  2. Exciting sales outlook for the upcoming 12 months calls for 33.7% growth, an acceleration from its three-year trend
  3. Healthy EBITDA margin of 14.3% shows it’s a well-run company with efficient processes

At $249.15 per share, Take-Two trades at 31.5x forward EV/EBITDA. Is now the right time to buy? See for yourself in our full research report, it’s free.
