Quantum Entanglement Communicator

Quantum Entanglement Communicators or QECs are the only technology currenrly available for instantaneous communication across space regardless of distance. They require massive amounts of energy and space to be kept online and as such are only deployed on planets. They also have low transmission rates of data. As such, only the most populated planets have reliable access to QECs for private parties. 
Quantum technology is available to only a select few manufacturers, most lying high technology corporations. These include Clarktech, Cardrys Technologies, IDS, Surben State Corporation and the FAMA.
