| ==Overview==
| | The network and its data streams are accessible from numerous information hubs located throughout the ring. The data can be extracted in "sylloge nodes" from the network stream, but they must be decrypted via ports in the ring's [[Cartographer]]s or the [[Conservatory (location)|Conservatory]].{{Ref/Reuse|rp30}} |
| The Conspectus network and its data streams are accessible from numerous information hubs located throughout the ring.{{Ref/Reuse|rp30}} A Conspectus network hub is a long underground chamber about ten meters high, with a console in the center of the room and numerous translucent screens streaming data—each screen has several layers of data.{{Ref/Novel|Id=rp31|RP|31}} [[Reclaimer]]s can retrieve data from the screens by physically plucking the string of code; the code then transforms into a sylloge node,{{Ref/Reuse|rp30}} a small rectangular [[Forerunner]] device that can fit into the palm of a [[human]]'s hand.{{Ref/Novel|Id=rp28|RP|28}} However, a sylloge node must be decrypted in ports at the ring's [[Cartographer]]s or the [[Conservatory (location)|Conservatory]].{{Ref/Reuse|rp30}} | |

| Circa [[2558]], the Conspectus network was discovered by [[Kate Stalling]], an [[ONI]] operative and a member of [[Zeta Halo project|the second exploratory expedition force]] sent from the [[United Nations Space Command]] to Installation 07.{{Ref/Reuse|rp22}} However, at some point after the [[Banished]] launched an assault on the ring in [[2559#December|December 2559]],{{Ref/Book|Enc22|Page=25}} Stalling was captured by the Banished.

| On [[2560#April|April 26, 2560]], Gorian and 'Rdomnai found one of the network hubs, they forced a human prisoner of war to extract a sylloge node. Shortly after, they were ambushed by [[Spartan]] [[Bonita Stone]], who managed to snatch the node. During the ensuing fight, although Stone was killed,[[Ouco|her AI]] copied the data and corrupted the original recovered by 'Rdomnai, rendering it useless for the Banished. The copied data was later found by Stone's squadmate [[Nina Kovan]], along with [[Boat crew|a group of UNSC survivors]] in May.{{Ref/Reuse|rp30}} During [[Battle of the beacon tower|a battle at a beacon tower]] that followed, the humans sent a supraluminal message containing that data—including the ring's location—into human-occupied space, in hopes of the UNSC sending reinforcements to the {{UNSCShip|Infinity}} forces stranded on the ring.{{Ref/Novel|Id=rp35|RP|35}}
