Network relay

Summary

The network relay is a device used to separate a network within a ship or station into multiple partially separate sub-networks.
Separate sub-networks allow one-way broadcasting of variable changes between them, and enable the creation of modular YOLOL systems.

Basic information

• Network Relays are connected to two separate data networks via cable sockets at both ends of the device
  • One end of the relay acts as the "input" connection
  • The other end acts as the "output" connection
• When the relay is powered, changes made to device fields connected to the input propagate will apply to all similarly named device fields that are connected to relay output
  • Values between networks are not automatically synchronized
    • This means that connected networks may contain different values for similarly named device fields
