DS Power Source

While operating tethered, for instance at one of the "practice fields" they set up at a competition venue, what is the power source for the DS?

Perhaps I'm missing something - I rescanned the controls documents and didn't see anything, however.

Is 110AC required for the DS, or can it obtain it's power from the robot, through the ethernet tether cable? I suspect the answer is yes you need 110 AC, but I wanted to find confirmation and have been unable to.

This could be problematic if a team needs to run out to the field after an aborted auton round, etc to reset their robot - they likely won't have 110 AC power to hook their DS up to on the field.
