Hello, I’m completely new to this, currently looking at apartments to rent and found this outlet, I’m usually used to seeing ethernet/cat6 outlets but not sure what this is, or if I can use it for internet. Any help would be appreciated, thanks :)

As another person said, it’s a Belling-Lee outlet. There are adapters to convert it into a F-type connector used by MoCA.

You would need to ensure that other, similar outlets are wired together through a splitter. The splitter should ideally be replaced with one that can pass frequencies up to 1675 MHz. Finally, you’d probably want to disconnect the aerial antenna to remove it as a source of interference.
