The documentation can be found at
http://jdbc.postgresql.org/documentation/82/index.html

In Chapter 3 (Loading the Driver) you will find that the JDBC driver class is

org.postgresql.Driver

In Chapter 3 (Connecting to the Database) you will find a description of the JDBC URL and the various connection parameters.

Yours URL will probably look like

jdbc:postgresql://dbserver.company.com:5432/databasename
