The Bolt 7 Wireless Transmitter brings advanced zero-delay wireless video technology to professional cameras. Available in 750ft (228m), 1,500ft (450m), and MAX (up to 5000ft/1.5km) models, it transmits 4K HDR video over 12G-SDI and HDMI while enabling production-critical data workflows through a dedicated 900 MHz wireless data channel.
This device features a smaller form factor than previous generations, integrating seamlessly onto handheld, Steadicam, gimbal, and broadcast camera rigs. Support for DisplayPort Alt Mode over USB-C enables emerging workflows with compatible cameras using a single cable for video and communications.
Pairing is faster than ever with new wireless and wired pairing options. The system maintains backward compatibility with Bolt 4K, Bolt 6, and RF-X systems, allowing productions to integrate it into their current Teradek ecosystem and scale capabilities.
