Where are Nodes 11, 12, 13, and 14 physically located?

Nodes 01 to 10 correspond to US, Japan, Korea, Mexico, Germany, France, UK, USSR, Brazil, and Sweden.
One routing path lists: 'cascade!transat!orbit-01!stardust'. Orbit-01? Are four of the relay nodes located on satellites?

If Nodes 11-14 are in orbit, who is maintaining the transmitters now that Orion is bankrupt?

When the fire broke out in B2-114, the mainframe was uploading to a satellite uplink on the roof of Orion Tower.

Nova isn't in a vault. Her code was transmitted to the orbital relays before the building burned.
