Bond expands the award-winning Cube encoder’s transmission capabilities to create a state of the art cellular broadcast solution that helps you to go live from mission critical news events to your school’s football games.
The Bond Backpack is an all in one professional HEVC/H.264 streaming solution for broadcasters seeking the best in signal reception and video quality.
Main Compartment
High Gain Antennas
Wireless reception for Teradek Node modems is greatly enhanced with two high gain antennas attached to the interior of the backpack.
Gold or V Mount Battery Plate
Choose between Gold-mount, V-mount, or no battery plate for portable power. When your battery runs dry, Cubes internal Li-Ion battery will give you 5 minutes of operation while you swap power sources.
Node Modems
Each backpack supports up to 5 USB or Teradek Node modems, ensuring you have connectivity wherever you go.
Integrated Locking Cables
To keep things tidy, we’ve neatly integrated several locking connector cables to attach your bonding encoder to each Node modem, ensuring your system is always running even if your backpack is dropped or tossed across the room.
Secondary Compartment
HEVC / AVC Bonding Codec
At the heart of the Bond Backpack is the Cube encoder, a High Profile HEVC encoder that supports bitrates up to 30 Mbps, both HDMI and 3G-SDI inputs, and a boot-to-live time of just 20 seconds. H.264 only encoders are also available.
Active Cooling
To keep you comfortable and your gear operating optimally, we’ve integrated a practically silent fan to keep hot air out and cool air in.
Ergonomic, Weather Resistant Design
The Bond Backpack is ergonomic, lightweight, and weather resistant, allowing the camera operator to focus on the content and not on fatigue or damage from the elements. Nylon strips on the backpack’s shoulder straps keep your cables neatly dressed
along your shoulder, while the quick release lock on the front offers quick access to both the encoder and battery.
From the Bond module to Cube to Node, Teradek’s complete bonding solution allows you to create a system that works just the way you need it to. Whether you’re an existing Cube 600 user seeking to upgrade your transmission capabilities or new to the
Teradek ecosystem, Bond offers a highly customizable solution that suits workflows large and small.

At the heart of Bond is Cube, a High-Profile H.264 and H.265 encoder that supports bit rates up to 30Mbps and a boot-to-live time of 20 seconds. Cube includes a series of professional features such as adaptive
streaming, closed-captioning, and both HDMI and SDI inputs.
The Bond expansion module seamlessly connects to any Cube 600 or 700 series through a pogo pin connector. Once connected, the module offers up to 4 additional modem connections via USB or 4-pin connector. A built-in 5 minute Li-Ion offers
continuous power during battery swaps.
*Product should not be disassembled
Node is a high performance 3G / 4G / LTE modem that provides exceptional connectivity and weather resistance. The modem connects to Bond via your choice of USB or 4-pin connector, with the latter offering superior coupling to the chassis.
Bringing it all together
Required for Bond, Core is a complete IP video management ecosystem in the cloud. When you stream over bonded network connections, a server running demuxing software is required to turn the data back into a recognizable format. For Teradek, this is a
Sputnik server, which is built into the Core platform.
Once your video stream hits the Core platform, you can:
Archive
Record each stream on AWS servers in real-time.
Transcode
Convert your video feed from HEVC to AVC, or change your stream’s bit rate, resolution, and/or frame rate.
Configure
Remotely monitor and configure all of your Teradek codecs from the Core dashboard.
Multi-platform delivery
Stream to unlimited destinations at the same time, including YouTube, Facebook, Twitch, Periscope, custom RTMP servers, HEVC/AVC decoders, and more.
