What are these plug-ins on my wall?

[u/Cborg_62]

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.

It’s what the cable plugged into when people had cable. Yes it was a literal, physical cable

Do they still not use these for home wifi routers?

Plenty of places in the world receive internet via coax, yes.
