Real-Time 4K Wireless Video
Transmit uncompressed video in 1080p and 2160p at 60FPS with less than 1ms of delay. Up to and beyond 5000 feet of range.

True HDR Color
Supports 10-Bit 4:2:2 

Improved Wireless Performance
Reliable signal transmission over 13x 40MHz frequencies, with upgraded hardware and less image break-up than previous Bolt generations. Faster reconnection times, automatic signal quality switching, and a more robust frequency hopping algorithm. An additional 5GHz radio frequency link is available for high-traffic locations with excessive interference from other wireless devices.

Rock-Solid Reliability
Bolt 4K features 8x the wireless performance of previous Bolt generations, ensuring video is delivered in even the toughest of RF environments.

Universal Compatibility
Send signal to any Bolt 4K series RX device for expanding workflow requirements.

Broadcast Mode
Supports Broadcast Mode which means you can connect unlimited receivers simultaneously. Broadcast mode also can increase your wireless video range to 5000 feet and beyond with the next-generation Array 4K Panel Antenna.

Inputs/Outputs
Input: 1x HDMI 2.0 (up to 4Kp30), 1x 3G-SDI (up to 1080p60)
Output: 1x 3G-SDI (up to 1080p60)

Camera Metadata
Send start / stop flags, timecode, and other ancillary data over the wireless link. On the receiver side, upload and apply custom 3D LUTs to monitor each take with the look you’re after.

Bolt App for iOS
Remotely pair units, configure settings, and utilize all of Bolt 4K’s features from any iOS smartphone or tablet. The Bolt App uses Bolt 4K’s integrated Bluetooth to give you all of its settings in the palm of your hand. LUT/Color processing is not available through the Bolt App
