Legends. This article is part of Legends: the expanded-universe stories that Lucasfilm set apart from canon in 2014.

The telesponder was a communications device incorporated on spacecraft. It automatically transmitted a ship's identification profile in reply to signals broadcast by starports and other military or civil authorities.

Many individuals, including smugglers and spies, would have multiple false telesponders installed on their ships. Han Solo had numerous false telesponder profiles for the Millennium Falcon.
