Neural relays were devices used in the 51st century to let people send "Thought-Mail" by Point-And-Think Technology.

Sometimes, if someone died, their consciousness could still leave an imprint in the neural relay. Using its communications device, the Data Ghost was able, for a short time, to talk to other people, before deteriorating, starting to repeat itself. While usually lasting only a few minutes, Anita mentioned that her Grandfather had 'ghosted' for an entire day and kept talking about his shoe-laces.

Anita was killed by the Vashta Nerada, but had no obvious Data Ghost, as the Vashta Nerada had learned to talk through the neural relay. (DW: Silence in the Library/Forest of the Dead)
