Teradek Bolt 500 XT 3G-SDI/HDMI Wireless Transmitter and Receiver Set
The Teradek Bolt 500 XT 3G-SDI/HDMI Wireless Transmitter and Receiver Set includes one transmitter and one receiver. This enables you to immediately start transmitting up to 1080p60 video from either an SDI or HDMI source. The zero-latency transmitter/receiver pair features a 500′ line-of-site transmission distance. You can send and receive visually lossless 3G-video signals from a Bolt 500 transmitter with zero latency. The transmitter features cross conversion, so you take an SDI signal in and loop out either an SDI or HDMI signal to your on-camera monitor.
The receiver also features both SDI and HDMI outputs, and the system supports digital SD and HD signals. Although the inputs and outputs support a variety of HD signals in both 50 and 60 Hz standards, as well as 480i and 576i, only HDMI supports 480p and 576p. You can transmit up to three other 3rd-generation Bolt receivers as the transmitter can support up to four receivers. The built-in AES 128-bit encryption helps keep your transmitted video safe from prying eyes.
Teradek Bolt 500 XT 3G-SDI/HDMI Wireless Transmitter
With the Teradek Bolt 500 XT 3G-SDI/HDMI Wireless Transmitter you can transmit visually lossless 3G video signals to a Bolt 500 receiver with zero latency. The Bolt XT is compatible with existing third-generation Bolt systems such as the Bolt 500, 1000, Sidekick II, and 703 Bolt, as well as the Bolt LT. The transmitter unit can be secured to a camera or other SDI/HDMI video source via a built-in 1/4″-20 threaded hole, as well as two M3 threaded holes. The included antennas provide a powerful signal that can travel up to 500′ line of sight.
A shoe mount is included for attaching to cameras without 1/4″-20 threads. For convenience, both a standard BNC cable and HDMI cable are included so you can plug in right out of the box. Power can be provided using the integrated 2-pin connector via the included D-Tap power cable. The transmitter supports up to four receivers. Built-in AES-128 encryption protects your video from prying eyes, while noise rejection helps keep your video clean even when working around 2.4 and 5.8 GHz signals.
