The Battle Net can be isolated for deep space broadcast, as well as inter-ship and between units. It should also be noted that the Battle Net was broadcast over all of [[Installation 04]] and by monitoring it, [[Cortana]] was able to discern Covenant activity over the ring. In the original [[Halo]], Cortana used [[John 117]]'s in-suit communications array to access the BattleNet. Battle Network channels are also commonly unencrypted, likely because the Covenant did not believe humans pose a threat and think that their extinction is imminent and unavoidable. | ||
The Battle Net is standard equipment aboard all Covenant vessels, but ground communication is best made using [[Uplink Crate]]s. | The Battle Net is standard equipment aboard all Covenant vessels, but ground communication is best made using [[Uplink Crate]]s. | ||
