Hollyland vs Teradek wireless video
Updated 21 Oct 2026
Teradek Bolt is the standard zero-delay wireless video link on high-end UK productions; Hollyland Mars and Pyro systems cost much less and are common on corporate, documentary and indie shoots. Both quote range and latency, but under their own test conditions, so treat figures as best case line-of-sight numbers.
The table lists 42 Hollyland and Teradek transmitters, receivers and monitor-receivers in the GEARMATH registry that publish a range or latency figure. Sort by range or latency to compare.

Reading the numbers
Range is quoted line of sight, with transmitter and receiver raised above the crowd. People, walls and other 5 GHz traffic cut it sharply. Latency under 1 ms (Teradek's "zero delay" Bolt claim) matters for focus pulling and operating from a monitor; under about 100 ms is usually fine for video village and client monitors. Teradek Bolt 4K, Bolt 6 and Bolt 7 generations pair only with the same generation.
