Site-to-site transporter

The portable site-to-site transporter owned by Tom Paris in an alternate timeline

A portable transporter was a portable site-to-site transporter device which allows beaming from one location to another without using a large external transporter pad or system. While these devices could be carried along, some were known to be rather large and bulky. Some portable transporters had the ability to transport themselves along with the payload.

History

In 2259, in the alternate reality, John Harrison was in possession of a portable transporter, a portable transwarp beaming device. He used it to beam himself from Earth to Qo'noS. The device itself did not beam along with Harrison, but remained behind and was found and recovered from the wreckage of his craft. (Star Trek Into Darkness)

In 2371, Commander Benjamin Sisko theorized that Morka, Atul, and Bo'rak used a portable transporter to place a piece of surveillance equipment in a bulkhead. However, Constable Odo did not believe the Klingon Intelligence personnel would be seen walking through Deep Space 9's corridors with a large device such as a portable transporter. (DS9: "Visionary")

In 2372, in an alternate timeline, Tom Paris had acquired a hand-held site-to-site transporter. He and Harry Kim used the device to transport from a San Francisco street to Harry's office at Starfleet Headquarters and from the office to the Earth Spacedock. This type of transporter beamed itself along with the transported personnel. (VOY: "Non Sequitur")

In 2375, the Borg drone One developed internal transporter nodes based on the 29th century mobile emitter technology. These implants could be utilized as a personal portable site-to-site transporter. (VOY: "Drone")

Emergency transport unit

The emergency transport unit

The emergency transport unit was a miniature portable transporter device developed in 2379. It was designed to provide a single one-direction transport for one individual. During the Battle of the Bassen Rift, Jean-Luc Picard beamed from the Scimitar to the USS Enterprise-E using such a device. (Star Trek Nemesis)

The device used by Jadzia Dax in "The Passenger" to remove Rao Vantika's neural patterns from Doctor Bashir was described in the script as a portable transporter. [1]
