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 Volatile Stocks We Steer Clear Of

ZVIA Cover Image

Market swings can be tough to stomach, and volatile stocks often experience exaggerated moves in both directions. While many thrive during risk-on environments, many also struggle to maintain investor confidence when the ride gets bumpy.

At StockStory, our job is to help you avoid costly mistakes and stay on the right side of the trade. Keeping that in mind, here are three volatile stocks best left to the gamblers and some better opportunities instead.

Zevia (ZVIA)

Rolling One-Year Beta: 1.33

With a primary focus on soda but also a presence in energy drinks and teas, Zevia (NYSE: ZVIA) is a better-for-you beverage company.

Why Do We Think Twice About ZVIA?

  1. Sales were flat over the last three years, indicating it’s failed to expand its business
  2. Suboptimal cost structure is highlighted by its history of operating margin losses
  3. Cash burn makes us question whether it can achieve sustainable long-term growth

At $2.44 per share, Zevia trades at 1x forward price-to-sales. Dive into our free research report to see why there are better opportunities than ZVIA.

Wolverine Worldwide (WWW)

Rolling One-Year Beta: 2.11

Founded in 1883, Wolverine Worldwide (NYSE: WWW) is a global footwear company with a diverse portfolio of brands including Merrell, Hush Puppies, and Saucony.

Why Should You Dump WWW?

  1. Sales tumbled by 1.6% annually over the last five years, showing consumer trends are working against its favor
  2. Sales were less profitable over the last five years as its earnings per share fell by 5.3% annually, worse than its revenue declines
  3. Negative returns on capital show management lost money while trying to expand the business, and its shrinking returns suggest its past profit sources are losing steam

Wolverine Worldwide is trading at $30.65 per share, or 24.3x forward P/E. Check out our free in-depth research report to learn more about why WWW doesn’t pass our bar.

Orion (ORN)

Rolling One-Year Beta: 2.25

Established in 1994, Orion (NYSE: ORN) provides construction services for marine infrastructure and industrial projects.

Why Do We Steer Clear of ORN?

  1. Product roadmap and go-to-market strategy need to be reconsidered as its backlog has averaged 1.7% declines over the past two years
  2. Competitive supply chain dynamics and steep production costs are reflected in its low gross margin of 9.3%
  3. Negative free cash flow raises questions about the return timeline for its investments

Orion’s stock price of $7.85 implies a valuation ratio of 33.3x forward P/E. Read our free research report to see why you should think twice about including ORN in your portfolio.
