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.

THOR Industries (THO) Shares Skyrocket, What You Need To Know

THO Cover Image

What Happened?

Shares of RV manufacturer Thor Industries (NYSE: THO) jumped 5.5% in the morning session after the company reported second-quarter 2025 results that surpassed Wall Street's expectations for revenue and profit. 

The company posted revenue of $2.52 billion, which was flat year on year but beat analyst estimates of $2.32 billion. This performance translated to earnings per share of $2.36, a 40.5% increase from the same period last year and well ahead of the $1.23 consensus estimate. However, the company's outlook for the full year was less optimistic. Management's guidance for full-year revenue, with a midpoint of $9.25 billion, came in below expectations. Similarly, the full-year earnings per share guidance, with a midpoint of $4.00, also fell short of Wall Street's forecasts, signaling potential challenges ahead despite the strong quarterly performance.

What Is The Market Telling Us

THOR Industries’s shares are somewhat volatile and have had 11 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 biggest move we wrote about over the last year was about 1 month ago when the stock gained 4.8% after an in-line inflation report fueled hopes for interest rate cuts and the U.S. and China agreed to extend their tariff truce. 

The Consumer Price Index (CPI), a key measure of inflation, came in largely as expected, holding steady at 2.7% year-over-year. This reading boosted investor optimism that the Federal Reserve will have room to lower interest rates at its next meeting, which could reduce borrowing costs for companies and consumers. 

Adding to the positive sentiment, the U.S. and China extended their tariff truce for another 90 days. This development alleviates concerns about renewed trade tensions, which is a significant relief for industrial companies reliant on global supply chains and international sales. Together, these events create a favorable outlook for economic growth, benefiting cyclical sectors like industrials.

THOR Industries is up 14% since the beginning of the year, and at $107.76 per share, it is trading close to its 52-week high of $115.57 from October 2024. Investors who bought $1,000 worth of THOR Industries’s shares 5 years ago would now be looking at an investment worth $1,172.

Unless you’ve been living under a rock, it should be obvious by now that generative AI is going to have a huge impact on how large corporations do business. While Nvidia and AMD are trading close to all-time highs, we prefer a lesser-known (but still profitable) semiconductor stock benefiting from the rise of AI.
