Pretty sure it's an FPGA - this sort of thing is the perfect use case for them. It seems that the lid has fallen off of it. As to the transceiver ICs, it'll be something like these:

If you look at the pinout, the area where the Rx/Tx go in and out roughly correspond to the board shown.

You might the right on both counts, the FPGA on ADRV9361-Z7035 looks fairly similar

I dunno, I looks a bit thrown together to me. Like the ethernet jack shoved at an angle and glued into place.

You mean the SMA jack? The ethernet jack looks straight and installed properly on the PCB. The whole device has the look of a prototype but that big PCB in the middle looks like some kind of expensive evaluation board.
