Correct, that is the ONT. What would be inside (garage, basement,etc) is the power supply for the ONT.

A slack storage box is used on the backside of an ONT when the provider uses pre connectorized fiber drops (like VZ and Frontier FiOS).

Your provider splices each and every drop directly to the ONT.
