Located on the [[AI Satellite]], this area houses the many complex servers and equipment needed to allow radio headset communication. Requires Telecommunications access to enter and accessible via Space.
==Control Room==
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]].
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.
The freezer is also kept here, which is vital to be kept on at all times, as it is responsible for the temperature of the server room.
===[[File:Aas_on.gif]] Automated Arrivals Announcement System===
This system announces the name and rank of a new crew member over the common channel when they join. If a head of staff joins late, it will announce the new arrival on the departmental radio channel as well.
===[[File:Telecom server monitor.gif]] Server Monitoring Console===
This console logs communication over all radio channels. Useful if you really want to listen in on security or command radio and can't get a headset.
===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 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.
==Server Room==
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.
