This box, which is about 30 cm long, and appears to be of a sort of
reinforced structure (they don't seem to be ventilation slots) is about
5m off the ground. It looks to me as though there are some sturdy power
cables entering it. There also appears to be something of coax cable
size entering, which go to the rectangular BT box above and to the
right. Any idea what it is for (and box above for that matter)?

Looks a bit like a fibre splice enclosure, but could just as well be
copper splices, as a kid I remember seeing all sorts of "torpedo" shaped
things strapped to telegraph poles out in the sticks.

Is that an old DAX box for sharing a voice phone line? Can’t find any
pictures online unfortunately. Maybe I’m calling it by the wrong name?
