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.

2 Cash-Producing Stocks with Impressive Fundamentals and 1 We Ignore

BJ Cover Image

Generating cash is essential for any business, but not all cash-rich companies are great investments. Some produce plenty of cash but fail to allocate it effectively, leading to missed opportunities.

Not all companies are created equal, and StockStory is here to surface the ones with real upside. That said, here are two cash-producing companies that leverage their financial strength to beat the competition and one best left off your watchlist.

One Stock to Sell:

BJ's (BJ)

Trailing 12-Month Free Cash Flow Margin: 1.4%

Appealing to the budget-conscious individual shopping for a household, BJ’s Wholesale Club (NYSE: BJ) is a membership-only retail chain that sells groceries, appliances, electronics, and household items, often in bulk quantities.

Why Does BJ Fall Short?

  1. Weak same-store sales trends over the past two years suggest there may be few opportunities in its core markets to open new locations
  2. Commoditized inventory, bad unit economics, and high competition are reflected in its low gross margin of 18.4%
  3. Poor expense management has led to an operating margin of 3.9% that is below the industry average

BJ's is trading at $96.06 per share, or 21.6x forward P/E. If you’re considering BJ for your portfolio, see our FREE research report to learn more.

Two Stocks to Buy:

American Superconductor (AMSC)

Trailing 12-Month Free Cash Flow Margin: 10.2%

Founded in 1987, American Superconductor (NASDAQ: AMSC) has shifted from superconductor research to developing power systems, adapting to changing energy grid needs and naval technology requirements.

Why Is AMSC a Good Business?

  1. Annual revenue growth of 49.8% over the last two years was superb and indicates its market share increased during this cycle
  2. Free cash flow profile has moved into positive territory over the last five years, showing the company has crossed a key inflection point
  3. Improving returns on capital suggest its past investments are beginning to deliver value

American Superconductor’s stock price of $61.34 implies a valuation ratio of 107.6x forward P/E. Is now the right time to buy? Find out in our full research report, it’s free.

Nubank (NU)

Trailing 12-Month Free Cash Flow Margin: 41.9%

With nearly 94 million customers across Brazil, Mexico, and Colombia through its viral member-get-member referral program, Nubank (NYSE: NU) is a digital banking platform that offers financial services including spending, saving, investing, borrowing, and protection products to millions of customers across Latin America.

Why Is NU a Top Pick?

  1. Market share has increased this cycle as its 44.9% annual revenue growth over the last two years was exceptional
  2. Incremental sales significantly boosted profitability as its annual earnings per share growth of 99.9% over the last two years outstripped its revenue performance

At $16.14 per share, Nubank trades at 23x forward P/E. Is now a good time to buy? See for yourself in our full research report, it’s free.
