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 Safe-and-Steady Stock on Our Watchlist and 2 We Question

YELP Cover Image

A stock with low volatility can be reassuring, but it doesn’t always mean strong long-term performance. Investors who prioritize stability may miss out on higher-reward opportunities elsewhere.

Luckily for you, StockStory helps you navigate which companies are truly worth holding. That said, here is one low-volatility stock that could succeed under all market conditions and two stuck in limbo.

Two Stocks to Sell:

Regeneron (REGN)

Rolling One-Year Beta: 0.76

Founded by scientists who wanted to build a company where science could thrive, Regeneron Pharmaceuticals (NASDAQ: REGN) develops and commercializes medicines for serious diseases, with key products treating eye conditions, allergic diseases, cancer, and other disorders.

Why Is REGN Not Exciting?

  1. Large revenue base makes it harder to increase sales quickly, and its annual revenue growth of 5.9% over the last two years was below our standards for the healthcare sector
  2. Day-to-day expenses have swelled relative to revenue over the last five years as its adjusted operating margin fell by 21.4 percentage points
  3. Waning returns on capital imply its previous profit engines are losing steam

Regeneron is trading at $576.98 per share, or 15.9x forward P/E. Check out our free in-depth research report to learn more about why REGN doesn’t pass our bar.

Sallie Mae (SLM)

Rolling One-Year Beta: 0.91

Originally created as a government-sponsored enterprise before privatizing in 2004, Sallie Mae (NASDAQ: SLM) is a financial services company that provides private education loans, savings products, and educational resources to help students and families pay for college.

Why Does SLM Give Us Pause?

  1. Annual sales declines of 1.6% for the past five years show its products and services struggled to connect with the market during this cycle

Sallie Mae’s stock price of $28.10 implies a valuation ratio of 9.4x forward P/E. If you’re considering SLM for your portfolio, see our FREE research report to learn more.

One Stock to Watch:

Yelp (YELP)

Rolling One-Year Beta: 0.41

Founded by PayPal alumni Jeremy Stoppelman and Russel Simmons, Yelp (NYSE: YELP) is an online platform that helps people discover local businesses through crowd-sourced reviews.

Why Are We Positive On YELP?

  1. Platform is difficult to replicate at scale and results in a best-in-class gross margin of 91.1%
  2. Healthy EBITDA margin of 26% shows it’s a well-run company with efficient processes, and its profits increased over the last few years as it scaled
  3. Share buybacks catapulted its annual earnings per share growth to 28.4%, which outperformed its revenue gains over the last three years

At $31.44 per share, Yelp trades at 5.7x forward EV/EBITDA. Is now the time to initiate a position? See for yourself in our comprehensive research report, it’s free.
