| - Many starships have a number of transporter rooms in addition to transporters in other locales such as cargo bays. The transporter rooms on the USS Defiant were sometimes referred to as the transporter bays. (DS9 episodes: "The Way of the Warrior", "To the Death", "Broken Link", DS9 - Gateways novel: Demons of Air and Darkness, DS9 - Mission: Gamma novels: Cathedral, Lesser Evil, DS9 novel: Warpath)
- The number of transporter rooms varied per ship or station, the main criteria being the ability to evacuate all personnel within a specified time. All key components which were needed for transport were fitted in this room and the one just below. Some starships, such as the NX-class Enterprise NX-01, did not have a transporter room. The area surrounding the transporter was instead situated between two corridors to which the transporter alcove was directly adjoined, on either side. (Star Trek: Enterprise)

(DS9 episodes: "The Way of the Warrior", "To the Death", "Broken Link", DS9 - Gateways novel: Demons of Air and Darkness, DS9 - Mission: Gamma novels: Cathedral, Lesser Evil, DS9 novel: Warpath) In an alternate timeline where Montgomery Scott rescued James T. Kirk before he could be absorbed into the Nexus, Alliance vessels were equipped with an interrogation chamber; the only access to this section of the vessel was via a single transporter pad inside a miniature transporter room, a transporter cubicle.

All key components which were needed for transport were fitted in this room and the one just below. Some starships, such as the NX-class Enterprise NX-01, did not have a transporter room. The area surrounding the transporter was instead situated between two corridors to which the transporter alcove was directly adjoined, on either side. (Star Trek: Enterprise) A transporter room was usually manned by a transporter chief. Miles O'Brien was the senior transporter chief for much of the USS Enterprise-D's service. Transporter Room three was O'Brien's preferred room. Before he left (to take up his post on Deep Space 9), Jean-Luc Picard told him it would not be the same without him. (Star Trek: The Next Generation; DS9: "Emissary") Although Deep Space 9 did possess at least five transporter rooms, Ops had its own transporter. (DS9: "Dramatis Personae", "Things Past") The DS9 Ops transporter was also used, several times, to effect a doorway to the mirror universe. (DS9: "Through the Looking Glass", "Shattered Mirror", "Resurrection") Captain Benjamin Sisko referred to the transporter room of the USS Defiant as the "transporter bay". (DS9: "The Way of the Warrior", "To the Death", "Broken Link") Constitution-class transporter rooms occasionally had food synthesizers. (TOS: "Tomorrow is Yesterday" , "This Side of Paradise" )
