The Array offers a more resilient wireless transmission, especially in challenging RF conditions, by focusing the signal and reducing interference. Featuring a dedicated external omnidirectional antenna for increased reception when the signal is outside the directional cone of the panel array. As a result, you may achieve a boost in the reception range based on the maximum range of the connected Bolt4K.
Antenna placement
Array 4K Panel Antenna
Your Bolt 4K receiver (if equipped with a dual battery plates) can attach to the back of an Bolt 6 / Bolt 4K Antenna Array which is a directional antenna with a receive pattern that varies based on its distance from the transmitter. The panel antenna enables Bolt 4K MAX to reach its full 5,000 ft range, and while it doesn’t add range to your 750 or 1500 systems, it focuses the receiver’s antenna elements and increases gain in front of the panel. If you’re shooting outdoors, using a panel antenna to direct your signal should improve performance, especially for ranges greater than 1,500 ft. The Panel antenna has both vertical and horizontal antenna connections (two H, five V), and your TX antenna configuration will determine which RP-SMA connector to connect to the left and right antennas on the receiver.
Your antennas are only as good as how you place them
In most cases, the ideal position for the transmitter and receiver antennas is perpendicular to the ground -- straight up and down. If the transmitter is at an angle or on its side, antennas should be arranged so that they point up. Pointing the antennas in any other direction re-orients the radiation pattern and may reduce performance. For situations where the ideal antenna placement just isn’t possible, you can relocate their position on your camera with Teradek antenna extension kit.
Optimizing your wireless performance and getting the most of Bolt 4K is as simple as correctly placing your antennas and understanding when to use what antenna configuration. No matter which antenna you use, Bolt 4K still produces a sharper image and handles channel interference over longer ranges better than ever before.

Customs, duties & taxes
There are no customs duties or taxes on orders shipping within the EU. Orders shipped outside of the EU may be subject to import taxes, customs duties and fees collected by the destination country. The recipient of an international shipment may be subject to such import taxes, customs duties and fees, which are collected once a shipment reaches the recipient's country. Additional charges for customs clearance must be paid for by the recipient; we have no control over these charges and cannot predict what they may be. Customs policies vary widely from country to country; and when customs clearance procedures are required, it can cause delays beyond our original delivery estimates. We advise that you contact your local customs office for more information.
