Umbilical

Umbilicals are corridors branching out from a vessel or space station, such as an orbital defense platform, to serve as docking points for other ships.

Cairo Station Umbilicals
During an award ceremony on Cairo Station just before of the Battle of Earth, the frigate was docked in Cairo's portside umbilical. John-117 cleared the umbilical en-route to the Covenant bomb in Firing Control. This allowed Commander Miranda Keyes, Sergeant Avery J. Johnson, and Commander Keyes' bridge crew to board the In Amber Clad and join the battle above Earth.
