As for what it's for, it could be anything. Possibly just for the camera that's also on that pole?
Those airfibers are massive fucking overkill for a single camera. I’ve aligned pairs of these that feed entire like 10-25 unit MDUs.
if they are chaining them bandwidth will add up, and depending on the switching equipment they could be doing a large ring of some sort. it would be pretty easy to calculate since cameras are a pretty even throughput.
Looks like a air fiber 24 which is only 1.5Gbps throughput, 8-24mbps per camera would mean between 60-200 cameras, which for a state transportation department wouldn't be unreasonable, especially they are using these for something else, like interconnects between buildings for a metro-lan scenario.
I'm pretty sure that's what Bill Gates will be using to activate the 5G nanobots that we all received in the COVID vaccine.

We were all supposed to die by late 2020. What’s taking so long?
They forgot to put out all the antennas, and you know how slow big infrastructure projects can be.
They said that people would start dying like flies in no time. Why do I care? You see, currently houses and cars are so expensive, because there are many people who also want to buy those things. If the population was cut to a fraction, as was promised, the prices would crash accordingly due to massive oversupply of everything. I’m still waiting for the day when I can buy a house with 1000 €.

Aah, the classic Soon™. The gaming industry has taught you well.
Nanomachine, son.
That indeed looks like exactly what they are, which I should have known since I have a bunch of UniFi gear at home. I wonder what PennDOT is using them for.
