A Jump Cassette is an electronic cassette used to provide astrogational data to a jump drive. In spacer jargon, these cassettes have sometimes been referred to (incorrectly) as "Jump Tapes".
In cases where a Generate Program is not available, starports have single-use flight plans (in self-erasing cassettes) available for all worlds within jump range for Cr10,000 per jump number. [1]
