Fiber Internet and cable are included in mandatory HOA fees (yay HOAs) so this seems weird. No other homes in the area have anything like this. Also, I’m 99% sure this unit is a full time Airbnb if that might matter (and why I can’t just ask my neighbor wtf is on their roof). Did some reverse image searches and didn’t find a match, that 5G seemed closest to my untrained eye. I don’t like tech shit that I don’t know what the hell it is. Particularly when it’s aimed close to my house. TIA!
That indeed looks like a cell network antenna.
Like others have already said, looks like a cell network antenna. Maybe service sucks inside home, so they got a repeater/amplifier?
Or if the home owner rents the place an an AirBnB and the cell coverage sucked, maybe he agreed to have an antenna installed at his home for a small income supplement from the carrier?
AT&T reception is shit here for unknown reasons. Tmo and V strong. But maybe something here.
Please don’t get this guy in trouble just because he put some shit on his roof.
Not my intention in the slightest. I’m generally a mind my own business dude, and supportive of people doing whatever they want with their stuff. This thing though happens to be aimed in my general direction, which also isn’t a problem, but I don’t like not knowing what the heck it is.
Looks a lot like this LTE Mimo cell antenna, although with an extra set of plugs on the bottom.

Dual LTE and 5G, maybe?

See if its pointing at a tower.
This is a client access sector. Not a point to point carrier link from a tower. It will be aimed towards the people with devices and it will spread out its signal in 180 degree or less angle.
You’ve just assigned me a little field trip! Thanks :)
There’s a crypto that pays for cell coverage called Helium. Maybe it’s that.
I vote for this reality
Doesn’t look like it, and Helium doesn’t use cell service, it’s all LoRa based.
