 Interestingly, entropy on realspace is prevented as the pocket dimension does not physically exist in a manner that allows conventional exchanges or energy. Because of this, the siphon requires heavy usage of still-experimental transphasic particle technologies to function. As a means of preventing a failure of the assembly from affecting or damaging normal space, the unit is insulated by a large null-entropy((Stasis chamber.)) unit that will lock down all real and virtual events inside of the chamber long enough for it to deactivate safely. If compromised by weapons assault and unable to shut down safely, the resulting detonation is comparable to a very small [[technology:aether]] burst warhead going off in a prismatic-white conflagration. Interestingly, entropy on realspace is prevented as the pocket dimension does not physically exist in a manner that allows conventional exchanges or energy.

-The efficiency of the system can be stated as being somewhere around four magnitudes greater that of the initial charge required to activate, but not much more than that because neither the siphon array nor conversion system have perfect efficiency. As a consequence, it only has 65-75% of the performance of a comparably sized [[technology:aether]] or [[corp:motoyoshi_fleet_yards:eien_power_systems:quantum_foam|quantum foam]] 'reactor'.+The efficiency of the system can be stated as being somewhere around four magnitudes greater that of the initial charge required to activate, but not much more than that because neither the siphon array nor conversion system have perfect efficiency.

 The zero-point siphon is most notable for projecting distortion fields which can be 'tuned' by specialized modules, which allow it advanced ECM/ECCM functions that are superior to those of charged particle or interference-based systems. The zero-point siphon is most notable for projecting distortion fields which can be 'tuned' by specialized modules, which allow it advanced ECM/ECCM functions that are superior to those of charged particle or interference-based systems.
