The Cuellar system was a Cardassian star system located in Sector 21505. It had a good strategic position, as it was "within arm's reach" of three Federation sectors alongside the Cardassian border.
A Cardassian space station was located in the system until it was incinerated by the USS Phoenix in 2367. The Cardassians claimed it to be a science station, but Captain Benjamin Maxwell of the Phoenix claimed that there was nothing of scientific interest in the system and considered it a military supply port. (TNG: "The Wounded", "The Mind's Eye")
This system was only mentioned in dialogue.
According to the script, the pronunciation for Cuellar was "KWAY-yar". [1]
According to Star Trek: Star Charts (p. 47) and Stellar Cartography: The Starfleet Reference Library ("Federation Historical Highlights, 2161-2385"), this system was located in the Alpha Quadrant. The system's primary was a F-class star.
