[[Halo|Halo's]] surface is littered with small '''teleporters''' which allow for instantaneous transport over short distances to another teleporter or a teleporter exit point. Although they act similarly to Halo's teleportation grid, they are unable to transport over long distances. In [[Multiplayer]], these are seen on levels such as [[Blood Gulch]] and [[Beaver Creek]]. However, in multiplayer, teleporters can be found on [[Earth]]. It is unknown how [[Forerunner]] technology ended up on modern-day Earth.

In [[Halo 3]], teleporters were not present in any multiplayer map because Bungie thought it was too easy to "camp" near them and get easy kills. Despite this, teleporters were reintroduced in the recently released map Avalanche. However, teleporters are available in [[Forge]] for all the Halo 3 maps. In Halo 3, when a person enters a teleporter and are going a higher speed (most likely caused by a jump from above) they keep their momentum and come out at the same speed but in the direction it is aiming.

*It is unlikely to be canon, since it was never mentioned in either the campaign of the games or the novels.  
*The canon nature of teleporters are debatable, as they are never mentioned in any canon material. Bungie has stated, however, that multiplayer maps themselves are canon.
*In [[Halo 3]], the teleporters only appear in [[Forge]]. However, Bungie provided the gamers with the [[Man Cannon]], a different way of quickly going through the map.

*They are rumored to cause [[ghost]] appearances when overused.{{fact}}
*A clever, though usually considered cheap, strategy involving teleporters is to go through one, then immediately move backwards. If the space behind it goes back far enough, then you can camp behind the teleporter. This only works with two-way teleporters.

*On Cold Storage and [[Gemini]], the teleporters are blue instead of the normal green.
