The '''Energy Tether''' is a device used by [[Covenant]] soldiers to rapidly descend from high places, as seen in [[Halo: First Strike]]<ref>[[Halo: First Strike]]</ref>. They work similar to rappelling rope, but are made of pure energy.
 
==Operation==
It is unclear how the ropes are kept together or how they are powered, but they appear to work just as well as normal rope without causing rope-burn. It is most likely a small but extremely powerful [[Gravity Lift]]. These ropes are most commonly used by [[Elites]] and [[Jackals]].
