- "The scomp link is busted, but this should get you moving for now."
- ―Cal Kestis, repairing his droid, BD-1
A scomp link was an accessory that allowed an astromech droid[4] or BD unit[3] to plug into a computer via a socket.[5] Also, Imperial droids such as the KX-series security droid had one.[2] It consisted of an extendable arm with a rotating tip.[4] The clone trooper CT-1409 "Echo" had his right arm replaced with a scomp link by the Techno Union after sustaining heavy injuries from experimentation.[1] The Kaminoan-affiliated AZ-series surgical assistant droids also possessed scomp links, embedded into their collapsible arms.[6] Scomp links could also be used manually as an independent tool; Ezra Bridger utilized an old R-series scomp link as a lockpick in order to manually gain access to doors, though this process could take time and skill depending on the door's security.[7]
