relay station
Transmission forwarding point
A relay station is a facility that receives signals—radio, television, or telecommunications—and retransmits them to extend their range or overcome obstacles.
The station amplifies or regenerates weakened signals before passing them along: The mountain relay station boosted reception for the valley below.
Satellites function as relay stations in space.
