Jefferies tube
Canon - Official Star Trek Technology
Service corridor in a Federation starship. A network
of Jefferies tubes runs through each starship and provides access to
the various conduits (EPS) and waveguides (ODN).
Jefferies tubes are named in honor of the late Matt Jefferies, the ingenious
designer of the original starship Enterprise. They are officially called
so since TNG. While all starships must have service corridors of some
sort, it is uncertain where on the various ship classes the may be located.
Ironically, in the otherwise very consistent Enterprise-D design there
seems to be no space left for them. Read more about that topic: Where
are the Jefferies Tubes?
