Some pics for the Dish/Electronics Sleuths...

[DWS44]

So...been considering selling my house if I could find one I liked with a bigger garage. Today I went and looked at one that seemed promising. It was owned by an older gentleman who apparently recently passed away and being sold by his daughters. Anyways...it had a "DishHD" Dish on the roof (No LNBs), and there were two lines from the dish running to the house (no telling where to) and an unfamiliar (to me) box on the side of the house. Curious what you Dish sleuths might be able to decipher from these pics:

Didn't have a screwdriver with me to get into the box on the left, but I was more curious about what the "Alpha" box on the right might be? Sat-related? Closer look...

Another piece of "Alpha" equipment in the garage as well (pic below)...related perhaps? The text on the plug only said "Telephone Equipment Do Not Remove"

So...any thoughts from the electronics sleuths?

Early FiOS setup?

It's an old VOIP module from the cable company.

Interesting...thanks! I knew the neighborhood was a fiber neighborhood, but since my neighborhood is not, I've never seen or had any fiber equipment. My current neighborhood was one of the last neighborhood developments completed before they started rolling out fiber to new developments, and they've never bothered coming back and adding fiber.

That adapter looks like old Fiber equipment, somebody asked for their LNB back, after they cancelled. Surprisingly somebody went and removed it, does Dish actually do service calls to remove LNB's?

I've had work orders to pick up all equipment, including removal of the dish

The lines from the dish don't go through the Alpha box. So my guess would have been internet/cable/phone or combination.

It's a fiber to the premises box. The "BBPS" simply indicates it has a "Battery Backup Power Supply".

FlexPoint AX Series

looks like a Ont power supply.
