It's the Mouth of Sauron, it's in the title!

Seriously though, it's a telecom routing box that overheated and melted the cover.

I know the Mouth of Sauron of course, I should've clarified that I didn't recognise what the cosplay is. Thank you.

Yep. Likely has 2 cables coming in that contains ~~144~~ 100 phone line pairs.

Those ~~144~~ 100 pairs get split out to local houses or business. Generally 1 or 2 pairs per household and 10 pairs per business unit.
