This room is where the [[Signal Technician]] will spend most of their shift. The room contains a [[File:Telecom server monitor.gif]] [[Computers#Telecommunications_Server_Monitoring_Console.2FMessaging_Monitor_Console|message monitoring console]], a [[File:Telecom server monitor.gif]] [[Computers#Telecommunications_Server_Monitoring_Console.2FMessaging_Monitor_Console|server monitoring console]] and a [[File:Telecom traffic control.gif]] [[Computers#Telecommunications_Traffic_Control_Console|traffic control console]].

To the left of this room is a small break area. There is a vendor in the south-west corner with some spare clothing for the signal technician, a microwave and donk pockets for when they get hungry, and a shot glass with a full vodka bottle for those long shifts.

===Message Monitor Console===
===Message Monitor Console===
This console logs the PDA messages that go through the server. This requires a decryption key that starts in the [[Chief Engineer]]'s office. A traitor AI can also acquire this key by bruteforcing it, it will take 10 seconds for every character the decryption key has, so don't let a human catch you doing this. In turn you can keep the key secret by changing the key to something no one will figure out, meaning you will have the message logs all to yourself.

A new feature of the message console is the added ability to send admin messages, you can of course change the name of the sender to anyone you like. For example, you could impersonate the Captain and order energy guns for the Science department to "research". Be careful though, if the Quartermaster replies his message will go to the Captain.

There is a closet in the south-west corner with some spare clothing for the signal technician. To the south of this room is a freezer that is vital to be kept on at all times, as it is responsible for the temperature of the server room.

This room also is where spare parts are kept in case some [[Nuclear Operative|pranksters]] decide to dismantle the telecommunications equipment in the server room. Both stock parts (eg. subspace ansibles and capacitors) and machine boards (eg. telecommunications server board and hub mainframe board) are kept here.

==Server Room==
==Server Room==
The server room is where the equipment responsible for keeping telecoms functioning is held. This room also holds spare parts in case some [[Nuclear Operative|pranksters]] decide to dismantle the telecommunications equipment. Both stock parts (eg. subspace ansibles and capacitors) and machine boards (eg. telecommunications server board and hub mainframe board) are kept here.
The server room is where the equipment responsible for keeping telecoms functioning is held. The equipment in this room runs in a super-cooled environment to avoid overheating. Entering this room without the proper protective equipment can be fatal.
 
==Maintenance==
A small maintenance room is east of the telecommunications satellite entrance. This room holds an air tank, SMES and a P.A.C.M.A.N..
