retransmit
Relay the signal
To retransmit is to transmit again—sending a signal, message, or broadcast a second time or relaying it onward to another destination.
In broadcasting, a station might retransmit a network's signal to reach local viewers.
In data communications, packets that fail to arrive are automatically retransmitted: The server retransmitted the corrupted file.
The noun is retransmission.
