This term refers to the use of the transporter while a vessel is about to enter warp speeds. Because of the severe spatial distortions a warp field generates, this procedure is highly dangerous and requires extensive adjustments to the transport procedure as well as an upshift in the annular confinement beam frequency to compensate for the distortions.

If the vessel is currently at warp and needs to transport objects or persons to a stationary location, the ship must first brielfy drop out of warp, engage the transporter and then engage the warp drive.

This was performed once when the USS Enterprise-D was enroute to an emergency distress call from the USS Constantinople and received a second emergency distress call from Ira Graves on the planet Gravesworld. (TNG: "The Schizoid Man")
