It looks like a point-to-point relay. There appears to be two different sized dish antennas on each antenna “pod” which would indicate two different frequencies are in use. I’m sure it’s the method they’re using to transmit the camera feed back to a landline connection. The poles without a camera are probably just a relay to get the signal down the next hop in the chain, or maybe there is some other sort of sensor data being collected at those points.
Looking at the UniFi stats azdle posted the dishes in the pod are separate send and receive dishes. The size denotes the dbi gain.
