Voor de vrachtwagens die tol moeten betalen.

These are fixed-position OBU scanners for the Viapass tax levied on freight traffic using highways and select regional/provincial roads. See: [https://www.viapass.be/en/controls/](https://www.viapass.be/en/controls/) & [https://datanews.knack.be/nieuws/zo-werkt-de-kilometerheffing-voor-vrachtwagens/](https://datanews.knack.be/nieuws/zo-werkt-de-kilometerheffing-voor-vrachtwagens/) This way trucks without a functioning OBU can be flagged and fined if necessary.
They give you a mini-tan by flashing you with a purple light when you pass underneath.

If they have ports, like the one you have posted, they are from Satellic / Viapass for the kilometer road toll. They have used the ports to move everything inwards when working on the equipment so that they don’t have to shutdown the road for that. Also that is why their inftrastructure box is placed behind the guardrail on the highway.
Fun fact, the biggest one is located at the E40 at the brussels tunnels.
These are devices specifically made to reduce the driving skills of BMW drivers even more.
