Power Supply Docking Station (PSDS) Description
Perkins Technical Services, Inc. (PTS) has developed a rugged, lightweight, user-
friendly power supply docking station (PSDS) for tactical radios. The PSDS provides the
capability to operate a Raytheon PSC-5 radio in a continuous and efficient safe manner.
The PSDS’s unique, lightweight slide-in, slide-out design allows for easy use and
installation. The PSDS has been developed to provide increased flexibility in the use of
a PSC-5 and to reduce operation costs resulting from the use of expensive batteries
and/or other power sources. The PSDS worldwide applications include tactical
operation centers, command posts, range operations, field and garrison operation
centers, test and maintenance facilities, training sites, deployment and staging
checkpoints, remote control operations and forward operation bases.
The PSDS provides the user the capability to use a PSC-5 while reducing ARMY power
requirements, soldier workload and logistical support needs.
The PSDS provides the optimum solution for combat support operations requiring
continuous, uninterruptible, reliable communication when AC power is available.
