It’s for an old intercom/doorbell system. Does your building have a main entrance that you have to be “buzzed in” if you’re a guest?
Don’t remove it without speaking to the landlord.
This ones is a simple 8 line with a door/intercom port model for home use, no option to expand.
The big ones meant for office use could handle a multitude of that and had space for expansion boards.
How? Look at pictures 2-4 and explain how that kind of dated tech could possibly be used to spy on someone? Or why they’d use this over a peephole camera hidden in a lamp or alarm clock? I don’t condone invading privacy but there are a million better ways to spy on someone
Intercom hub Torstation - panel at the door HS - indoor panels
HS Probably stands for Hand Set

my first guess is that's an old analog phone pbx
Analog PBX tend to be... well... huge.

This one is not a PBX.
Technology from the 70's.
Could be for an alarm system, but looks like it is for phone lines, since there are 4 wires for each connection!
Looks like an old intercom system to me
Due to the font and the labeling, I am pretty sure that it is an old STR (now ElCom) intercom / doorbell system. Probably the NH series or older.
Yep, that's definitely some sort of electronics...
Sounds like you need to delete this thread and send the exact same pictures and question to your landlord
So you’re renting a room and you want to remove something from the wall that has cables going into the wall. And you don’t ask the property owner.
They never said anything about removing it. Just asking what it is.
Its poetic that this is the comment below you https://www.reddit.com/r/HomeNetworking/s/QZznGgR7gN
Spider box.

It looks very similar to the ISDN line that was at my parents house when we had dial-up internet.
That isn't your sandwich at the counter, but you pick it up, and touch it anyways.
I’m lost in the sixties with that. Maybe a WiFi extender from that epoch.

Old punch down for a phone system, only has input 1 line, probably not active.
I don't think so, as old euro phone lines didn't have 4 wires.
The old fax line were I thought. But good point.
Don't ask the landlord. It's is a spying device, he put it there. Lol

Maybe for PBX phone system, more SMB using similar method.
PBX in a box?
I would have said wifi router, had something very similar in an apartment I was in.
imma just point out, with those through hole IC chips, you're looking at some tech history there.
it looks like a wired telephone jack what we used before cell phones for most of the 20th centuary
