Teradek Prism Mobile Backpack Mk II 4G V Mount 2x 5G

Teradek Prism Mobile Backpack Mk II 4G V Mount 2x 5G is a portable 4K contribution and cellular-bonding package built for ENG, live broadcast, sports, event coverage, and remote production. From the supplied source, it combines a Prism Mobile Mk II V-Mount encoder, two internal Node II LTE modems, and two external Node 5G modems installed through the backpack bonding assembly.

This is the kind of system that makes sense when a field crew needs more network resilience than a single modem can provide. The encoder accepts professional SDI or HDMI sources, combines available cellular paths through Teradek bonding technology, and sends high-resolution video back to the control room while the camera package remains mobile.

Why It Helps

This package is useful when a live contribution feed needs more than one available network path. The Prism Mobile can combine its two internal LTE modems with the two supplied 5G nodes, giving the encoder four cellular connections to work with as signal conditions change in the field.

The professional video interface keeps it practical for broadcast cameras and switchers. A 12G-SDI or HDMI 2.0 source can be encoded as H.264 or H.265, while the SDI output provides a local path for monitoring or connection to other production equipment.

The transport options also give engineers flexibility at the receive side. TRT and Teradek bonding support managed Teradek workflows, while SRT, RIST, RTMP, MPEG-TS, RTSP, HLS, and WHIP cover a wider range of control-room, cloud, and streaming destinations.
