Remote relay beacon. Dellis Tantor plants a remote relay beacon. Remote relay beacons were tall communication structures which could retransmit data through a line-of-sight network. Once deployed, the beacons would search out any nearby beacons and establish a laser connection thourgh which data could be transmitted.
A relay is an electrically operated switch. Many relays use an electromagnet to mechanically operate a switch, but other operating principles are also used, such as solid-state relays. Relays are used where it is necessary to control a circuit by a separate low-power signal, or where several circuits must be controlled by one signal. The first relays were used in long distance telegraph circuits as amplifiers: they repeated the signal coming in from one circuit and re-transmitted it on another c
