Looks like it is not finally connected yet, just attached with tape to the pillar.



What is it's purpose?

          This is a fiber optic splicebox. It is a weatherproof enclosure where two (or more) ends of fiber optic cables are connected.



          Yes - electricity poles also carry optical fiber for control of the network and often internet access.

            That is a junction box which is weather proof, and is probably temporary and will be moved before it gets played with.

                                        A one-liner is a joke that is delivered in a single line. A good one-liner is said to be pithy - concise and meaningful. [1] Comedians and actors use this comedic method as part of their act, e.g. Jimmy Carr, Tommy Cooper, Rodney Dangerfield, Norm Macdonald, Ken Dodd, Stewart Francis, Zach Galifianakis, Mitch Hedberg, Anthony Jeselnik, Milton Jones, Shappi Khorsandi, Jay London, Mark Linn-Baker, Demetri Martin, Groucho Marx, Dan Mintz, Emo Philips, Tim Vine, Steven Wright and Henny Youngman and Arnold Schwarzenegger. [ citation needed ] Many fictional characters are also known to deliver one-liners, including James Bond, who usually includes pithy and laconic quips after disposing of a villain.
