So this box is converting from SMF to MMF (but I believe the reverse from what you thought.)

Thanks. You may be right. Normally SMF is used for long runs and MMF for shorter runs. But looking at the PDF you posted it's actually a customer fiber termination box for the fiber drop to the house. Interesting.
