Overview
The Havis LPS-103 is a 120W non-isolated DC power supply designed for compatible Havis docking stations used with Panasonic Toughbook mobile computers. It converts vehicle DC power into a 15V DC output for supported docking equipment.
This model features a 90-degree yellow-tip output connector and a cigarette-lighter input cable. Its power rating and connector configuration make it important to verify the docking station model before selecting it for a new installation or replacement.
Power Delivery and Connectivity
The LPS-103 accepts a 12–16V DC input and supplies 15V DC output, with a maximum rated power of 120W. The input cable connects to a compatible vehicle cigarette-lighter outlet, while the output cable connects to supported docking equipment through a 90-degree yellow-tip connector.
The power supply kit includes a 6-foot input cable, a 3-foot output cable, and mounting hardware. These components support integration into a suitable vehicle-based computing installation.
Docking Station Compatibility
Havis's current product catalog identifies the LPS-103 for the following Panasonic docking station series:
- DS-PAN-1110 Series
- DS-PAN-1200 Series
- DS-PAN-1500 Series
Compatibility depends on the exact docking station model and its electrical and connector requirements. Do not assume that every Panasonic Toughbook docking station uses the same power supply, even when its power rating appears similar.
