The conduit was a form of rapid transit used within the Covenant holy city of High Charity. The only known conduit was located between the Forerunner Dreadnought in the center of the city and one of the towers on the city's edge. It is unknown whether the conduit could be used to reach other locations in the city, or whether there was more than one conduit.[1]
The conduit consisted of a beam of green energy projected from a station located in one of the towers, guided by a series of support rings, through which an individual would be propelled to the beam's endpoint at extremely high speeds. The final support ring closest to the Dreadnought was significantly larger than the others and had eight petal-like fins which were folded in when the conduit was active, but would open when the beam retracted. The support rings were apparently held in place by the conduit itself, as they would fall down once the beam was deactivated.[1]
The only known instance of the conduit's use was to allow John-117 to enter the Forerunner Dreadnought at the conclusion of the Battle of High Charity. While Cortana managed to delay the Dreadnought's launch for a limited time, John-117 barely made it into the ship as the conduit closed.[1]
