What OTE/OptiTap is used here?

I was able to get Spectrum to expand approximately 1,700 ft from an existing RDOF tap to my house. They normally use the 2-port CommScope OTE's that have the optitap ports sticking out the side. They did for the rest of the road. But for this one they did something different. They appeared to use their own crew to expand rather than the contractors that did the rest of the road. This OTE is different than all the others. It's hard to tell but it looks to be possibly a 6-port one based on zooming into it. Can anyone tell me the make and model of this?
