Summary

Bandwidth packs occupy the utility slot. When worn, they give a mechanitor wearing it +6 bandwidth, allowing you to control more allied mechanoids. They have no quality.

Analysis

Bandwidth packs are unique in that they are a permanent and stable means of gaining bandwidth. Band nodes stop working when the power goes out, and apparel items will degrade over time and damage. The ability to arm 6 more militors (or other mechanoids) is certainly powerful, especially as most other utility-slot items are consumable.
