Teradek unleash their whole new range of BOLT XT and LT Transmission Systems.
Teradek Bolt wireless video systems transmit exceptional 10 bit HD video at distances up to 3000ft with no perceptible delay. Built for professionals; from DITs to 1st ACs, filmmakers around the world rely on Bolt’s flawless image quality and wireless performance to capture incredible imagery.
Bolt is available in 500ft., 1000ft., and 3000ft. ranges, each with your choice of HDMI, 3G-SDI, or dual inputs. Choose single units; transmitter/receiver or as a bundle and with a choice of battery plate accessories: V-Mount or Gold-Mount. An all-new aluminum chassis reduces the size and weight of the Bolt line from the original, with receivers also allowing for integrated pass-through power.
Bolt’s intelligent RF design ensures your video feed is transmitted reliably over the 5GHz band at extreme distances and in challenging environmental conditions. But transmitting audio and video isn’t the only thing that Bolt can do; auxiliary data can be sent with each video feed and users can upload and apply custom 3D LUTs to their receiver’s output.
Every 3G-SDI Bolt model supports timecode and start/stop flags from many camera manufacturers, including RED, ARRI, Canon, Sony and Panasonic. On top of this; integrated mounting options ensure optimal performance and quick set-up for your units. All XT and LT transmitters include a built-in ARRI 3/8″ Pin-Loc , while 1000 & 3000 XT receivers include a built-in NATO rail.
So now you know all there is to know about the Bolt XT or LT, but which one is right for you?
Bolt XT is the ultimate wireless, zero-delay video system designed for cinematographers to monitor every shot and film with confidence and satisfies the needs of the most discerning professionals, from powerful software tools and rock-solid performance to smart power options and backward compatibility. Available with a maximum range of 500ft, 1000ft, 3000ft, or 10,000ft, the new Bolt XT line offers a professional solution for every budget.
A key feature of the Bolt XT is its backward compatibility with Bolt 500, 1000, 3000, Sidekick II, and 703 Bolt, enabling users to build onto their existing systems or linking with others already on set. Unlike alternative wireless video systems, Bolt XT includes a unique AES 128 encryption algorithm to protect your video footage, ensuring that only authorised receivers can connect to your transmitter.
With the Bolt XT line, Teradek has added an integrated NATO rail on the receiver, several 1/4”-20 and 3/8” mounting points, and an ARRI rosette on the transmitter to greatly improve available mounting options.
The Bolt XT, like the previous generation, is multicast capable up to 4 receivers and includes built-in cross conversion and Teradek’s proprietary software utilities, including a manual frequency-selection tool, 3D LUT engine, and a 5GHz spectrum analyser to keep an eye on interference in your area.
Main features include:
- Backward compatible with 3rd generation Bolt, Sidekick II, Bolt LT, and 703 Bolt
- Professional software features: 3D LUTs, 5GHz spectrum analyser, manual channel selection
- Dual input and output (SDI + HDMI) and SDI loop on the TX
- 500 receiver features a bidirectional small battery plate LP-E6 / Sony NP-F (“L-Series”)
Bolt LT is an affordable, high performance alternative to the BOLT XT and Bolt Pro line of zero delay wireless video systems.
The Bolt LT takes Teradek’s industry-leading wireless performance and packages it into an affordable, streamlined series of zero-delay wireless video systems. The LT line is available in 500ft or 1000ft max-range models, with the LT 500 offering external antennas on the transmitter for enhanced wireless performance.
Not only lighter, but smaller too, the Bolt LT is the essential, no-frills high performance wireless video system. Several ⅜” and ¼”-20 mounting points allow Bolt LT to mount seamlessly to any camera rig and integrated bi-directional Sony L-Series or Canon LP-E6 pass-through battery plates allow you to power your system far more easily than before.
Existing 3rd-generation Bolt users can rejoice because Teradek designed the Bolt LT to be backward compatible with the Bolt 500, 1000, Sidekick II, and 703 Bolt, as well as the powerful new Bolt XT. This feature makes it easier than ever to build onto existing Bolt systems or plug into others already operating on set.
The Bolt LT also retains critical features from the previous generation, including AES 128 encryption to protect your video feed from prying eyes and multicasting to up to 4 receivers.
Main features include:
- Backwards compatible with 3rd generation Bolt 500, 1000, 300, Sidekick II and 703 Bolt
- SDI loop on SDI TX | HDMI loop on HDMI TX
- External antennas on Bolt 500 TX and Bolt 1000 models
- Smaller and lighter chassis design with robust mounting points (3/8” and ¼”-20)
- Extremely affordable and offers the same wireless performance as the XT
