Teradek Bolt 6 XT

The Teradek Bolt 6 XT is a zero-delay wireless video transmission system designed for reliable, high-quality monitoring on set. Supporting up to 4K60 10-bit 4:2:2 HDR video over 12G-SDI, the Bolt 6 XT uses Teradek's Zero-Delay technology to transmit video with less than 1ms of latency. The system operates across both 5 GHz and 6 GHz wireless frequencies, with automatic or manual frequency selection, AES-256 encryption, and the ability to coexist with other wireless systems on set. HDMI 2.0 connectivity is also supported, making the XT suitable for a wide range of cinema cameras, monitors, and video village configurations.

The Bolt 6 XT is available in three range configurations: 750 ft, 1,500 ft, and MAX. The 750 model has vertical antennas, while the 1,500 and MAX models add horizontal antennas to improve signal robustness in challenging RF environments. In standard operation, one transmitter can connect to up to six receivers. The MAX adds Broadcast Mode, allowing one transmitter to connect to an unlimited number of paired MAX receivers while also extending transmission range to up to 5,000 ft when used with the optional Bolt Panel Antenna. The system is cross-compatible with the Bolt 4K family, providing flexibility when integrating existing Teradek equipment into a Bolt 6 workflow.
