4K Wireless Video with Up to 5,000-Foot Range

The Bolt 7 MAX is the long-range model in Teradek's Bolt 7 zero-delay wireless video ecosystem. Designed for professional production, it delivers 4K HDR wireless video with a range of up to 5,000 feet (1.5 km), providing the distance needed for large sets, stadiums, venues, outdoor productions, and other demanding production environments.

Bolt 7 MAX supports 12G-SDI and HDMI wireless video, giving production teams a flexible way to transmit high-quality video between cameras, monitors, and other compatible equipment without relying on long cable runs.

Dedicated 900 MHz Data for Camera and Production Control

Bolt 7 MAX goes beyond wireless video with a dedicated 900 MHz wireless data channel. This channel supports camera control, monitor control, color workflows, and Ethernet transport, allowing production-critical data to travel alongside the wireless video system.

By combining video and data connectivity in one system, Bolt 7 MAX can help reduce cable runs, simplify camera configurations, and eliminate the need for multiple standalone wireless devices.

Compact Design and Faster Setup

The redesigned Bolt 7 chassis is smaller and lighter, making it easier to mount on modern cinema cameras, broadcast cameras, and professional production rigs.

A new full-color OLED display provides quick access to system information and helps simplify pairing and configuration. Streamlined setup and support through the Teradek Bolt App help production crews deploy and manage the system more efficiently.

Backward Compatible with Bolt 4K, Bolt 6, and RF-X

Bolt 7 MAX is backward compatible with Teradek Bolt 4K, Bolt 6, and RF-X systems, helping production teams expand their wireless video capabilities while continuing to work with compatible equipment already in their Teradek ecosystem.

This makes Bolt 7 MAX suitable for production companies, broadcasters, rental houses, and other professional organizations managing multiple generations of Teradek wireless video equipment.

USB-C Connectivity for Emerging Camera Workflows

Bolt 7 MAX supports DisplayPort Alt Mode over USB-C on compatible cameras. This enables supported camera systems to use a single USB-C connection for video and communications, helping simplify physical connections on modern camera builds.

Optional battery solutions include Gold Mount, Gold Mount Plus, and V-Mount battery cradles, providing flexible power options for professional camera configurations. MAX Deluxe options include two battery cradles.

Bolt 7 Wireless Range Options

The Bolt 7 family is available in three range configurations:

• Bolt 7 750: Up to 750 ft (228 m)
• Bolt 7 1500: Up to 1,500 ft (450 m)
• Bolt 7 MAX: Up to 5,000 ft (1.5 km)

The Bolt 7 MAX is designed for productions that require the greatest wireless transmission distance in the Bolt 7 family, making it well suited to large venues, expansive sets, sports facilities, outdoor productions, and other applications where cameras and monitoring equipment may be separated by significant distances.
