− '''Communications Equipment''' is part of the basic equipment intrinsic not only to military units like [[BattleMechs]] and [[Combat Vehicle|combat vehicles]] but some [[Support Vehicle|support]] and civilian vehicles as well. Beyond these fundamental systems is secondary, specialized "comm gear" that is more powerful and allows for more and varied uses. This expanded communications equipment allow for point-to-point operations (without bouncing) averaging fifty kilometers in range, while more advanced versions can uplink with [[Satellite]]s and other orbiting spacecraft. The largest of these devices can even link to [[HPG]] stations to allow for interstellar communication.<ref name="TMp212">''TechManual'', p. 212, "Communications Equipment"</ref> + '''Communications Equipment''' is part of the basic equipment intrinsic not only to military units like [[BattleMechs]] and [[Combat Vehicle|combat vehicles]] but some [[Support Vehicle|support]] and civilian vehicles as well.

The use of this extra communications equipment is practically infinite. In civilian use it can allow a state-of-the-art newsvid van to report on the latest crisis with up-to-the-minute details or allow a traffic-control airship to direct incoming and departing vehicles more efficiently. Combat and support vehicles which dedicate extra tonnage for communications equipment most commonly fulfill the role of battlefield command centers, allowing them to coordinate maneuvers or monitor [[Remote Sensor]]s.<ref name="TMp212"/> The use of this extra communications equipment is practically infinite.
