I did some research on this "box" in the LVP. It's a Hexatronic NEG20610+ "Customer Subscriber Box v2.4" I believe the cable coming from the ground into this box is SMF, not MMF, because of the distance it has to travel. I want to pry open the box to see if it's an SC connector, but I don't want to risk it and it's not important. The fiber running to the Gateway is probably MMF. So this box is converting from SMF to MMF (but I believe the reverse from what you thought.)
