The '''teleportation grid''', also referred to as a '''translocation grid''',<ref name="nelson">[http://majornelson.com/2011/08/26/news-from-halo-fest/ '''Xbox Live's Major Nelson''': ''News From Halo Fest'']</ref> is a piece of [[Forerunner]] technology equipped to several important installations. Using [[slipspace translocation]] technology, the grid transports its users from one location to another in a compressed Slipstream field, not unlike starships using slipspace as a travel medium.

During the [[Skirmish on Installation 03]] on [[2557#July|July 26, 2557]], [[859 Static Carillon]], the [[monitor]] of the [[Composer's Forge]], temporarily disabled the [[Ur-Didact]] and used an emergency teleport feature present in [[Installation 03]]'s teleportation grid to displace the [[Promethean]] commander into the [[Control Room (Installation 03)|Control Room]]. According to the monitor, the control center was the only destination available to him, being the most secure location on the ring. Static Carillon then teleported [[John-117]] into the control room and, after ejecting the segment of the Halo housing the control room, he teleported the Master Chief aboard [[Blue Team]]'s [[GA-TL1 Longsword]] in orbit just before the detached section impacted the [[Composer's Forge]].<ref>'''Halo: Escalation''', ''[[Halo: Escalation Issue 10|Issue #10]]''</ref>

[[Installation 07]]'s teleportation grid utilized portals, much like those on [[Requiem]]. On the Master Chief's orders, [[the Weapon]] opened a portal to take him from the [[Command Spire (location)|Command Spire]] to as close as possible to where [[Jega 'Rdomnai]] was taking [[Fernando Esparza]].{{Ref/Level|Id=Command Spire|Hi|[[The Command Spire]]}} The two passed through a data cluster of [[Cortana]]'s memories, causing the Master Chief to see some of them.{{Ref/Level|Hi|[[Repository (Halo Infinite level)|Repository]]}}

The ring also had translocation pads which teleported the [[boat crew]] out of the Conservatory using a sequence of glyphs provided by [[117649 Despondent Pyre]]. The trip made the humans nauseous.{{Ref/Novel|RP|Chapter=35}} Later, after Spartan [[Tomas Horvath]] fell onto a pad with [[Gorian]], it activated and teleported both combatants away moments before the pad was destroyed by Banished fire, thus preventing the rest of the team from using it or discovering where Horvath had been sent. Horvath was teleported to a partially collapsed Forerunner facility on a mountain very far away from the [[beam emitter|beacon tower]] where had teleported from.{{Ref/Novel|RP|Chapter=36}}{{Ref/Novel|RP|Chapter=39}}

After the death of the [[Harbinger]], a portal mysteriously opened inside the [[Silent Auditorium (location)|Silent Auditorium]]'s central chamber, enabling the Chief and the Weapon to escape the collapsing chamber. The portal not only transported them to the opposite side of the Ring, it also sent them three days into the future.{{Ref/Quest|Id=Silent Auditorium|HI|Endless|Silent Auditorium}}
