Anyone know what this metal box mounted on the pole is for?
Looks low on the pole so was thinking something for cable or telephone but I am guessing.

Fiber optic cable connection box? You have fiber internet service at your location?

It is not at my location. It is near a possible new residence for a client of my daughter who works with people who are very sensitive to electric fields/rf radiation.
She was not able to measure any bad stuff at the location but her instrument does not cover the microwave band.

The red tape on some of the lines you see, label them as fiber optic cable. None of those fiber lines appear to go into that silver enclosure, but it is possible that the enclosure is connected to something just out of the reach of the pic. Could be part of a small cell 5G network node, but it seems a bit small for that. May be an amplifier/power conditioner or otherwise related to DSL or cable internet/TV feeds. Looks more like a splice box, though - simply used to splice and weather-protect lines.
