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 Small-Cap Stocks We’re Skeptical Of

ANGI Cover Image

Many small-cap stocks have limited Wall Street coverage, giving savvy investors the chance to act before everyone else catches on. But the flip side is that these businesses have increased downside risk because they lack the scale and staying power of their larger competitors.

These trade-offs can cause headaches for even the most seasoned professionals, which is why we started StockStory - to help you separate the good companies from the bad. That said, here are three small-cap stocks to avoid and some other investments you should consider instead.

Angi (ANGI)

Market Cap: $791.5 million

Created by IAC’s mergers of Angie’s List and HomeAdvisor, ANGI (NASDAQ: ANGI) operates the largest online marketplace for home services in the US.

Why Are We Hesitant About ANGI?

  1. Struggled with new customer acquisition as its service requests averaged 22.5% declines
  2. Sales are expected to decline once again over the next 12 months as it continues working through a challenging demand environment
  3. High marketing expenses suggest it needs to spend heavily on new customer acquisition to sustain momentum

At $18.15 per share, Angi trades at 5.8x forward EV/EBITDA. If you’re considering ANGI for your portfolio, see our FREE research report to learn more.

Udemy (UDMY)

Market Cap: $1.01 billion

With courses ranging from investing to cooking to computer programming, Udemy (NASDAQ: UDMY) is an online learning platform that connects learners with expert instructors who specialize in a wide range of topics.

Why Are We Cautious About UDMY?

  1. Decision to emphasize platform growth over monetization has contributed to 1.3% annual declines in its average revenue per buyer
  2. Sales are projected to remain flat over the next 12 months as demand decelerates from its three-year trend
  3. Highly competitive market means it’s on the never-ending treadmill of sales and marketing spend

Udemy is trading at $6.72 per share, or 10.7x forward EV/EBITDA. Check out our free in-depth research report to learn more about why UDMY doesn’t pass our bar.

Hertz (HTZ)

Market Cap: $1.68 billion

Started with a dozen Model T Fords, Hertz (NASDAQ: HTZ) is a global car rental company providing vehicle rental services to leisure and business travelers.

Why Are We Out on HTZ?

  1. Underwhelming unit sales over the past two years show it’s struggled to increase its sales volumes and had to rely on price increases
  2. Waning returns on capital imply its previous profit engines are losing steam
  3. Unfavorable liquidity position could lead to additional equity financing that dilutes shareholders

Hertz’s stock price of $5.42 implies a valuation ratio of 4x forward EV-to-EBITDA. Dive into our free research report to see why there are better opportunities than HTZ.
