If you get knocked and then subsequently die, your teammates can pick your banner up from your deathbox and then respawn you at a beacon. A drop ship comes and you jump out of it with minimal gear.
If you have a support legend in your team, these banners can also be crafted in a "replicator", since picking the banner up is not always feasible
