Source-bounded topology
Documented topology, controls, and unknowns
Expected, documented, and observed configurations remain separate. Physical port capability is not treated as an active connection.
Safe public evidence boundaryReviewed 2026-07-21
The reviewed ClearVote 2.5 record identifies the ClearAccess station and its local peripherals, while Clear Ballot's current security policy says certified products are never attached to modems, the Internet, Wi-Fi, or Bluetooth. The exact port occupation and field wiring of a particular station are not established.
This public view records device roles, connection media, evidence scope, and isolation controls. It intentionally excludes IP addresses, credentials, keys, access codes, APNs, SIM identifiers, serial numbers, and site-specific routing details.1 sourced configuration view1 source imageNo field-observed topology collected

Certified station boundary and local peripherals
ClearAccess is represented as a touchscreen ballot-marking station with a ballot printer and accessibility inputs. The reviewed sources support local peripheral relationships and a product-level communications boundary, not a field-observed network.

Clear Ballot states that certified products are never attached to modems, the Internet, Wi-Fi, or Bluetooth.
not publicly establishedField port state
The exact enabled interfaces, occupied connectors, and jurisdiction cabling were not established by the reviewed public record.
Operational details withheld
No addresses, credentials, cryptographic material, access codes, or site-specific configuration values are collected or displayed.
A product-level communications policy and a certified component list do not prove the state of a particular port, cable, station, polling place, or election deployment.
