Design-Conscious Routers

The Conceptual 'Wall Router' Allows for Maximum Signal Transmission

— June 10, 2019 — Tech
The router has become a mainstay part of the average home but hasn't changed much in the way of aesthetics, so the conceptual 'Wall Router' seen here has been created to change this. Designed by Yeong Seok Go, the router is capable of being mounted on any wall surface to eliminate the need for a surface to position it on, while also maximizing signal transmission throughout the space. The two-in-one cord provides both connectivity and power to ensure the unit creates as a little visual interruption as possible.

The conceptual 'Wall Router' is also cleverly designed with an illumination function that will shine brighter, depending on the signal strength. This will come as welcome news to those who require a strong connection to work from home.
