Tether Node:
Fixed points that Maintenance Tanks use for attaching a wire for rapid ascension and descent. They can also be used with the Psychic Spider Ball.
Logbook entry
Tether Nodes are fixed points designed for use by Maintenance Tanks. They are not physical devices but are energy spheres placed in the air by a special projector. Once attached to one, Maintenance Tanks can then adjust the length of their wires to raise or lower themselves.

By using the Psychic Spider Ball together with the Psychic Grapple, it is possible for a user to pull on a Psychic Grapple connection to build tension and slingshot themselves.
