power port

Device electricity source

A power port is an electrical socket or connector that supplies power to devices.

On laptops and electronics, it's where the charging cable plugs in.

In vehicles, power ports replaced cigarette lighters as general-purpose outlets: I charged my phone through the car's power port.

In medicine, a power port is an implanted device for administering medications or contrast agents at high pressure during imaging procedures.
