The router maintains a very slim construction that's capable of being hung on a wall and paired with your choice of artwork thanks to a built-in frame. The base of the router only needs to be installed onto a wall before affixing the magnetic top portion in place. The TCL Ultrathin Mesh Router is perfect for placement on a wall, but can also be used in a freestanding fashion with a small stand like a picture frame. This will enable administrators to set up the mesh networking solution however it's required in a space. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 3.0/10 - Popularity: 48% | Activity: 28% | Freshness: 15% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Tech](https://www.trendhunter.com/tech) ## Key Themes ### What's Driving This Trend - **Artistic Mesh Routers:** The combination of connectivity and aesthetic appeal provides an opportunity for innovation in home networking. - **Wall-mounted Networking Solutions:** The trend towards utilizing wall space for functional decor is an innovation opportunity for companies in the networking industry. - **Customizable Networking Hardware:** The desire for personalized home decor allows for a disruptive opportunity to create customizable networking hardware. ### Who This Affects Most - **Home Networking:** Companies creating home networking solutions have an opportunity to cater to consumers who value aesthetic appeal in addition to functionality. - **Home Decor:** Businesses in the home decor industry can explore innovative ways to incorporate technology seamlessly into home design. - **Digital Art:** The merger between networking equipment and art presents a new frontier in digital art innovation for artists and designers. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Sculptural Wifi Routers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/huawei-x3-pro-wifi.md) - [Interchangeable Cover Networking Solutions](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vibrant-wifi-router.md) - [Minimalist Circular Router Units](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/island-router.md) - [Ultra-Fast 5G Routers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/5g-cpe.md) - [Advanced Avian-Inspired Routers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dlink-aquila-pro-ai-m95.md) - [Customizable Network Router Systems](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wifi-router-1.md) - [Artful Flush-Mount TVs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/c1-canvas-art-tv.md) - [Smokestack Factory-Inspired Routers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/complex-1.md) - [Photo Frame-Like Televisions](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nxtframe.md)
