An empty astromech socket in the Phantom
The astromech socket, also known as the astromech slot or droid socket, was a component of some starships where an astromech droid could be put in to provide help for the pilot.
In some cases, like the Phantom, an astromech was needed for the ship to enter hyperspace.[1]
