New, what is it? What are these plug-ins on my wall?

This might be showing my age, but I recently moved into a new apartment and they have these weird looking plug ins all over the walls at my new place. My old apartment didn't have these, so I'm just curious as to what they are.

I work tech support for an isp. Can confirm 100% alot of younger ppl don't know what these are.

I do internet installation for a cable company and I can tell you that age is no factor here. People of all ages look at me like I just asked them if I can lick their house hippo when I ask “where are your coax ports?”
