This article is about the Forerunner artifact. For the transit conduit in High Charity, see High Charity conduit.

The Conduit was a Forerunner artifact found by the Covenant. It was taken to Earth and the ship holding it crashed on the surface causing it to be contested by UNSC and Covenant forces during the Battle of Mombasa in October 2552. An ODST squad[1] managed to procure the Conduit from the Covenant, who subsequently struggled to reacquire it. In 2557, the Conduit was in the possession of Jul 'Mdama's Covenant faction, who took it to a Forerunner structure known as the Altar on Installation 03. The UNSC retrieved the artifact from the Covenant and took it to an ONI facility in the Earth city of New Phoenix, which had fallen under attack by Promethean forces emerging from a slipspace portal. An ONI research team in the base believed they may be able to use the Conduit to close the portal and stop the invasion.[2][3] They were able to stop the invasion, but the Conduit was able to make a slipspace jump before they could study it.
