    Would anyone know what the dish is for in the attached pictures? I moved to a new house recently and this is on the gable wall.

    I suspect it is a 4G modem and dish since the only cable attached to it is an ethernet one so it is possible that it is powered via POE.

    Cant ID it but could be either a WISP 2.4G product or for MNO LTE. Get a PoE injector and find out sure.

    Looks like a microwave receiver used by some broadband companies

    It looks like a Mikrotik sxt lite Wireless antenna 5Ghz from a local fixed wireless broadband company.
