This article gives a general overview of the Sleeper Cache sites. For in depth information, please go to the respective sub pages.

Sleeper Cache exploration sites are advanced exploration sites, more difficult than normal data or relic sites. There is an additional risk involved because of various hazards, but you can get some sizable reward for your trouble should you decide to run one.

Sleeper Cache exploration sites can be found in all areas of space, regardless of system security, but do come in different versions. All versions show up as a data site in the probe window, but require use of both relic analyzers and data hacking modules.

The Sleeper Cache sites comes in three variations or difficulties, with increasing rewards:

All three types also have a unique property - unlike most other data and relic sites, they will be removed from the probe scanner window once the first relic container in the site is successfully hacked, and will despawn as normal if no non-cloaked players are in the site. As such the sites do not necessarily have to be run through entirely to ensure site "completion".

For in-depth information, guides and fittings for each type of Sleeper Cache site, check out the above links.

In addition to that, the sites contain Sleeper blue loot, R.A.M. and R.Db manufacturing materials for Tech 2 modules and ships, Isotropic Deposition Guides to build capital ships, storyline module blueprints and skillbooks.
