The Teradek Ace 750 HDMI Wireless Video System, initially announced before NAB 2024, is now available for purchase.
It is marketed as an affordable, zero-delay wireless video solution for HDMI cameras and workflows.
Compatibility and Compliance
The Ace 750 is cross-compatible with Bolt 4K and Bolt 6 in both 5GHz and 6GHz modes. It adheres to FCC and CE frequency usage and power output guidelines. Teradek designed the Ace 750 to provide professionals, especially those just starting out, access to its unique 6GHz zero-delay wireless video technology.
Performance and Specifications
Utilizing the Teradek BB3 chip, the Ace 750 achieves less than 1 millisecond of latency, significantly faster than wifi-based systems. The system has an operating range of up to 750 feet (228.6 meters) line of sight. Both the transmitter (TX) and receiver (RX) units weigh 6.6 ounces (187 grams) each and have dimensions of 4.39 inches x 3.19 inches x 1 inch.
Design and Features
The Ace 750 is a lightweight, compact HDMI wireless video system with built-in antennas, suitable for use with mirrorless cameras, camcorders, action cameras, and A/V workflows. It sends uncompressed zero-delay, 4Kp30, HDR video and audio. The Ace 750 includes an integrated hole pattern with multiple mounting options, featuring M3 and 1/4-20 inch holes.
Power Options
It can be powered by NP-F or LP-E6 batteries using an optional L-shaped plate or through a barrel connector (7-28V). The inclusion of a battery plate would have been a valuable addition for an entry-level system.
Automatic Channel Selection
The TX and RX units automatically detect and select the 5GHz or 6GHz RF channel with the least interference, employing Auto-Frequency Switching to maintain optimal signal quality. The Ace 750 comes paired out of the box, and the TX can send video to up to six RX devices simultaneously using the Bolt Manager app for iOS or Android.
