Custom Carrier Locking

Articles

What is PLMN?

PLMN is a globally unique carrier code used for cellular registration.  These are usually 5-6 digits.  A carrier can also have multiple PLMN codes.

What does the PLMN do for me?

When using a multi -carrier sim and "Teradek Data" you can select which network you want to use under the "Carrier Lock" option of the Node II modem.

Input/Encoding

Articles

In addition to configuring your stream type, Prism allows you to control various characteristics of the network video stream. The Encoder settings can be found by clicking Input/Encoding at the top of the web UI.

Uploading recordings to External Storage

Articles

Core gives you the ability to copy the recorded files from the archive to External storage, using FTP or the Google Drive option.

NOTE: External Storage feature is available only for Core Plus, Pro, and Enterprise Plans

FTP (File Transfer Protocol) is used for transferring files from one host to another or between computers through a network. FTP integration with Core archive is done in order to enable customers to more seamlessly integrate Core with their production workflow by allowing copying files from the archive to FTP manually or to allow automatic FTP uploads of all newly recorded files.

Bolt 6 U-NII-5 (6GHz) support by region

Articles

Bolt 6 radios are calibrated and tested to support operation in the U-NII-5 (5.925–6.425GHz) frequencies. Although the product and its internal radios support these additional frequencies vs. previous Bolt products, regulatory restrictions mean that U-NII-5 operation is allowed only in the regions where it has been cleared for use. As different regions approve U-NII-5 for unlicensed operation, Teradek will release firmware updates to enable the additional frequencies. Note that we sometimes refer to U-NII-5 frequencies as “6GHz” to make it simpler to understand Bolt 4K (5GHz only) vs. Bolt 6 operation (5GHz and 6GHz).

Decoder

Articles

The Decoder Settings panel allows you to configure your Decoder to receive streams from the Encoder. Before using the Decoder, ensure that the Encoder is on the same network, or accessible via your web browser (web UI).

Encoder

Articles

ART 2U allows you to control various characteristics of the network video stream. Encoder settings can be found by clicking Encoder at the top of the web UI.

Wireless Configuration

Articles

Bolt 6 contains several wireless configuration options that allow the system to work at its best in different environments. The system is designed to work adequately using its default, automatic settings, but they may not be ideal for all situations. This section details all available wireless configuration options for the transmitter and receiver.

File Sharing on Core

Articles

File Sync in Core is a great feature for on-set and remote playback of instant camera proxies for use as basic dailies - you will now be able to share and playback recorded takes instantly after recording from anywhere in the world.

The feature is available for  Core  Plus, Pro and Enterprise plans.

Below you will find additional information about the compatible devices and clients for viewing, and how to set up your encoder, Core TV, or Apps.

Configurations for Teradek Data

Articles

On Prism devices, or most devices supporting Node II, you can press the Teradek Data button, and the APN and carrier locking features will become available.  To use Node I devices, Teradek must pre-customize the sims to operate in a limited capacity.

When using non-Teradek Data-enabled devices, you must configure APN.
