Would any of you know what these boxes are? They are atop street signs. The cities mounted them.

>>
>>129487583
The ones near me don't look like that, but they're popping up everywhere. Sometimes they've even put up new specialized poles for them, and you can't even really see how they're wired or where they go.

It's obvious whatever the case that they dress them up to blend in to the scenery, meaning it's clearly something nefarious. They even have these things now that look like giant oil filters hanging outside main doorways where you'd almost thing it were a floodlight of some sort.

Who is getting paid to design these things and have them installed?
>>
>>129487583
Not sure anon - but I'd guess some machine to machine router/ap - or a municipal radio repeater. The omni-directional antenna means it's probably not wifi (modern aps have multiple phased antennas) and the length means it's longer wavelength - since 2.4ghz is only 4inches long.... So 433mhz 1/2wave is like 12inches about in line with OPs pic. If that's the case, probably a LoRaWAN/Zigbee/etc link (lots in Chicago) or again a police/municipal radio repeater.
The bottom part of the enclosure is probably to hold 2 small SLA batteries stacked atop one another.
I built a large wireless network a few years back and put all kinds of strange boxes on poles/rooftops. So I'm always looking at these things wondering - glad other people do the same.

good post.

Probably 400/800 mhz something for city use. Some of the power monitoring and control stuff uses that kind of stuff. Agreed on not being 2.4 or 5Ghz.

They probably just alert some agency if the sign goes down. They aren't really big enough to do any large scale tracking like >>129488323 suggests.

Nah, shotspotter uses a phased microphone array. Lots of little things poking out or a omnidirectional radome looking cover hiding it all.
OP should buy a cheap SDR dongle+'gnu radio' and do a capture if he's really curious.

Word has it that something called 5G network is coming soon, and with space to build towers at a premium, expect to see relay boxes like the ones in your photo popping up in the weirdest of places.

Spoof telephone masts, used to skim cell data from phones directly to the agency that owns them.

Trust me, London is absolutely saturated with them.
>>
>>129489667
You know what they've had here for years are these little strange protrusions they U-bolt on to street lights everywhere, and then they run the wires so it looks like it's just got a power connection. A power connection for what? What the hell is it doing then? It's not turning the light on and off because that's what the tiny little inbuilt sensor at the top is for.

Best answer I've gotten so far is they're tracking shipments from the trucking industry. Well I guess it must be UPS trucks or something because they're all over residential areas.
>>
OP here, I know they are city connected somewhat. One went missing and a cop asked the homeowner nearest where it was, said a GPS signal indicated it was at their residence.

Wifi repeater for company like Comcast's free wifi service?
>>
>>129489215
You don't pick up sound with an antenna
>>
>>129490008
I see them even around college campuses where they already have 10 different kinds of disguised antennae around for god knows what. The campus wifi is obvious because they use ethernet cables that are labeled for the router closets. The cell phone ones are obvious because you can look at what they have printed on the thick coax cables.

What the fuck all the new things are is beyond me but somebody is paying out the nose for them.

The Xfinity repeaters are from private users not knowing they are a hotspot for anyone and everyone.

t. Technitium/Hotspot user getting free wifi from his next door neighbor.
>>
>>129489951
Ok, so we know it wants to link what it's receiving/transmiting with the location
>>
>>129490397
Those repeaters are pretty dank though. Get a few user:pass combos and you can leech free interbutts without causing anybody obvious trouble.

I'm not one to talk up telecom cartels, but that was a good move.

It's so obvious though. If you were a real threat to the state, maybe you'd just organize and take out a bunch of them with supersonic rounds at a distance as a distraction from where you wanted to do your dastardly deeds.

You could even set at least one on fire to distract the fire department. Who do they think they are catching? The 100+ nigger gun crimes that happen on any given weekend in bombed out shitholes?

Your car has an RFID chip placed in it. When you travel through the "strange box", your car's location is pinged allowing it to be tracked discreetly.
Isn't technology lovely?

>stuff on poles
This is almost certainly a radar sensor for measuring traffic flow. The induction loops in the road are really limited in terms of data and require a lot of upkeep. Ultrasonics and other things suck ass - so radar is used to track frequency and speed of traffic. Some $$ cities have fiber connecting some intersections with cameras/machine vision and shit but it's really really expensive.

My city was a test case for an interstate camera system that blew through $30million. Most cities just do limited traffic surveys with nothing more than a tube with an air sensor on the other side and some gopros mounted to a pole that they then pickup a few days later and have an intern manually count cars. Met with traffic folks and pitched my sub-ghz network and asked them about all the stuff they had already on poles/intersections.

>tracking shipments from trucking industry
RFID reading through a moving tractor trailer just isn't happening. Worked in this field too with a BigCorp $$$$ budget doing wireless sensor stuff - radios attached to pallets, high value items, etc. Spotty as hell on 3G - much less trying to scan RFIDs at 60mph. Some of the finance firms do use realtime satellite to track shit though.
>>
>>129491458
Uber has taken to using Uber-branded fleet vehicles near me. Once they go unmanned, I'm going to have a field day jumping out in front of them so they have to come to a screeching halt and then knocking those spiny things on top off with a bat.

It's going to be a fun timeline. It'll back up traffic for ages.
>>
>>129491328
From what I understand, the hotspots get throttled if the primary user is doing something that consumes the bandwidth. You get priority and any leecher like me gets slowed.
>>
>>129487583
it's on a stop sign, get closer and look for logo or serial number. Take a proper side profile of it, too.

police/medic radio relay box

it picks up the walkie talkie signal and amplifies it so it can reach base clearer

>>129491753
Yup, traffic shaping. Seems to work pretty decent. Although I've noticed it's not just comcast that has started to shit on UDP traffic.

>dat deep packet inspection

Lastly and to no-one in particular, stuff on telephone poles is going to get ever crowded. In addition to all the m2m/IoT shit - 'edge computing' is the next hot thing. Basically moving the processing for image/voice/lidar/radar/etc machine learning is moved closer to the object needing it - reducing latency. Nokia and 'self driving car' folks are pushing this - since current (((cellular))) providers have refused or can't build a data network needed to off-board a lot of machine learning computation.

He makes a good point and i might be wrong.
Maybe the police are prepping for when netneutrality ends so that they can retain communication without paying (((them))).
Or maybe they are intended to middle-man the cell towers so that can warrantlessly track meta-data again without appealing to the network provider.

Correct. This is also related to the big red balls outside every Target store. You're being made to expect these mammoth, engorged balls each time you go shopping so that when they take them away, you're left with a void you don't understand why you have.. But will subconsciously try to fill with other mammoth, engorged balls anywhrre you can find them, including the testicles of other men.

Whites are specficially targeted by this, to kill off the white race. This is why ((they)) chose Target and not Wal*Mart for their spheres of deception.
