Bury it in the ground? I have a customer with a house that is mostly buried in the ground, and I think adobe houses similarly use the thermal mass of the bricks to average out t he daytime and nighttime temperatures.
There have been news reports recently about advances in radiative cooling that can passively cool to as much as 20 degrees below ambient air temperature even during the heat of the day, by radiating the heat into space. Requires a coating that reflects all incoming sunlight. https://phys.org/news/2018-10-energy-saving-radiative-cooling-ready-real-world.html From: AF <[email protected]> On Behalf Of David Coudron Sent: Friday, August 9, 2019 7:34 AM To: AnimalFarm Microwave Users Group <[email protected]> Subject: Re: [AFMUG] Small climate controlled enclosure We have had pretty good luck fan cooling using relays. Seems very reliable, but of course will only cool to ambient temp and you have to be open to the outside. If you need a fully closed and cooled enclosure you probably will have to buy a good enclosure and purchase the cooling separately from what we have found by doing a quick look in the past. Polycase and FactoryMation have pretty good prices on decent enclosures. Kooltronic and others make closed loop AC/cooling for enclosures but we haven’t dug too deep on them as fans seem to handle the issues for now.

Would be nice if someone made an outdoor rated PON OLT that is affordable, but those don't seem to exist. I would be attaching this enclosure to a utility pole.
