Building off the idea from Nerf C4 Organ Damage Range / Replace with breaching charges, I think it'd be a good idea to convert C4 to work with remote detonators. They're very effective at dealing damage in a large area, so letting them be remotely detonated would encourage more strategic use of them.
For how they'd function, could have remote detonators work in two modes. The standard mode is simply sending a signal to detonate all linked C4 that has been armed on the map. Linking the C4 would just be a matter of clicking a C4 brick with a detonator in hand, and vice versa. The other mode could work like the signaler devices from SS13 where your C4 detonates if it receives the correct code. That way, players can have multiple C4 placed and detonate only certain ones. You enter the chosen code on a C4 brick using a multitool, and then on the detonator you input the code to detonate any C4 that match. The detonator could have a neat physical interface that shows a number pad like this one where the player clicks the buttons to enter a code:
