What are those devices in Ghost in the Shell they use to arrest suspects? It
seemingly causes them to be paralyzed from the neck down.

I think I saw in mentioned in the manga, but not the anime.

Couldn't find a wiki entry or anything like that, but from what I've seen (and
I've seen all of GITS a few times) it's a special device to paralyze people or
any other thing that has this port.

I don't remember any explanation about how it works, it just does. Section 9
uses it often enough throughout the years to assume it's reliable.

An image of the neck port and a connection wire. Didn't find a paralyzing plug
pic, so if somebody does, please edit it in.

It is in chapter three of the manga:

Apparently in the manga, it renders them unconcious, but their bodies can
still be moved, but in the anime, they become temporarily quadriplegic.
