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 Industrials Stock with Exciting Potential and 2 We Turn Down

CSL Cover Image

Whether you see them or not, industrials businesses play a crucial part in our daily activities. Their momentum is also rising as lower interest rates have incentivized higher capital spending. As a result, the industry has posted a 28.1% gain over the past six months, beating the S&P 500 by 9.5 percentage points.

Although these companies have produced results lately, a cautious approach is imperative. When the cycle naturally turns, the losers can be left for dead while the winners consolidate and take more of the market. On that note, here is one industrials stock poised to generate sustainable market-beating returns and two we’re passing on.

Two Industrials Stocks to Sell:

Ameresco (AMRC)

Market Cap: $1.8 billion

Having played a role in upgrading the energy solutions of Alcatraz Island, Ameresco (NYSE: AMRC) provides energy and renewable energy solutions for various sectors.

Why Are We Hesitant About AMRC?

  1. Gross margin of 16.5% reflects its high production costs
  2. Negative free cash flow raises questions about the return timeline for its investments
  3. Limited cash reserves may force the company to seek unfavorable financing terms that could dilute shareholders

At $34.16 per share, Ameresco trades at 30.9x forward P/E. To fully understand why you should be careful with AMRC, check out our full research report (it’s free).

Taylor Morrison Home (TMHC)

Market Cap: $6.57 billion

Named “America’s Most Trusted Home Builder” in 2019, Taylor Morrison Home (NYSE: TMHC) builds single family homes and communities across the United States.

Why Is TMHC Risky?

  1. Sales pipeline suggests its future revenue growth won’t meet our standards as its backlog averaged 12.7% declines over the past two years
  2. Estimated sales decline of 8.4% for the next 12 months implies an even more challenging demand environment
  3. Falling earnings per share over the last two years has some investors worried as stock prices ultimately follow EPS over the long term

Taylor Morrison Home’s stock price of $66.44 implies a valuation ratio of 8.7x forward P/E. If you’re considering TMHC for your portfolio, see our FREE research report to learn more.

One Industrials Stock to Watch:

Carlisle (CSL)

Market Cap: $14.25 billion

Originally founded as Carlisle Tire and Rubber Company, Carlisle Companies (NYSE: CSL) is a multi-industry product manufacturer focusing on construction materials and weatherproofing technologies.

Why Does CSL Stand Out?

  1. Excellent operating margin of 19.1% highlights the efficiency of its business model, and its rise over the last five years was fueled by some leverage on its fixed costs
  2. Share repurchases over the last five years enabled its annual earnings per share growth of 23% to outpace its revenue gains
  3. Free cash flow margin grew by 5.1 percentage points over the last five years, giving the company more chips to play with

Carlisle is trading at $334.78 per share, or 14.2x forward P/E. Is now a good time to buy? Find out in our full research report, it’s free.
