An openreach BUDI box

Is it usual in an MDU scenario like this to have the ONTs in there for (presumably) monitoring / a quick ready reckoned that the PON is up and functional?

Hard to be sure but does the photo show writing , Lift 1 , Lift 2 , on the ONT’s , being an MDU , having lifts seems plausible and don’t lifts need to have communication to the outside world in the case of emergencies?

Ah. Sharp eyes! Missed the writing. Clearly not in use yet or at least not cabled to the Ethernet port. No power backup in place. Maybe for ordinary (not emergency) lift system telemetry?

They will be lift phones / telemetry with cellular backups, at that point it's less important to have the ONT on a UPS.

Good point @jpm. Any backup power / comms. probably within the lift controls.
