Teradek RF-X Redundant Wireless Video Switcher for Bolt 4K/6 and Ranger RX

Teradek RF-X Redundant Wireless Video Switcher for Bolt 4K/6 and Ranger RX is a 1RU signal management system designed for productions operating in congested or unpredictable RF environments. It accepts feeds from up to six compatible Bolt or Ranger wireless receivers and automatically routes the strongest available signal to the primary 12G-SDI program output.

By using multiple receiver locations instead of relying on a single wireless path, RF-X helps maintain a stable video feed as cameras move throughout a venue. The system continuously evaluates receiver performance, providing seamless switching between wireless sources while allowing engineering teams to monitor incoming signals through a dedicated multiview output.

Highlights

• Supports up to six Bolt or Ranger wireless receivers for redundant wireless workflows
• Automatically selects the strongest wireless signal for uninterrupted program output
• Six 12G-SDI inputs with dedicated 12G-SDI program and monitor outputs
• Configurable multiview monitoring output for receiver management
• Sub-1 ms transmitter-to-receiver delay for low-latency production environments

Why It Helps

RF-X is designed for productions where cameras move through multiple RF coverage areas. Instead of depending on a single wireless receiver, multiple Bolt or Ranger receivers can be positioned around the venue while RF-X continuously selects the strongest incoming signal, helping maintain a stable wireless video feed throughout the production.

The dedicated 12G-SDI monitor output supports configurable multiview, allowing engineering teams to observe all connected receiver feeds while the main program output continues delivering the selected wireless source. This makes RF-X well suited for sports venues, concert productions, broadcast facilities, and other large-scale live events.

System Characteristics

• Automatic redundant receiver switching helps maintain reliable wireless video coverage
• Six-receiver architecture expands RF coverage across large production areas
• Professional 12G-SDI connectivity supports UHD workflows up to 4K60
• Integrated monitoring tools provide configurable multiview and system management
• Rackmount 1RU design integrates easily into mobile production racks and broadcast facilities
