In a word
port (carry) + -able (capable of) = 'carry-able'. From the portable radios of the 1950s, to camping stoves, to portable chargers and "portable software" in the code world — every time a new thing-you-can-carry appears, the same root tags along. One Latin root packs its bag across the centuries.
