1.4 About Bolero
Bolero Wireless Intercom
The Riedel Bolero Wireless Intercom system is a digital, easy to use full-duplex communications solution for broadcast,
security, industrial and theater applications as well as for sports and cultural events. It is an all-new wireless intercom
system capable of supporting 10 Beltpacks per Antenna and up to 100 Antennas in a single deployment. Bolero
redefines the wireless intercom category with features such as ADR (Advanced DECT Receiver) with multiple-diversity
and RF anti-reflection technology for greater RF robustness.
Bolero utilizes the benefits of the Digital Enhanced Cordless Telecommunications (DECT) standard’s base layer. This
provides a license-free, cellular architecture with seamless hand-over between cells, allowing each Bolero Wireless
Beltpack to continuously monitor and automatically select the best connection to the Antenna.
Bolero is fully integrated in Riedel’s Artist Matrix. Features like “Touch&Go” Beltpack registration, versatile operation as
a wireless Beltpack, a wireless keypanel, and – in an industry first – a walkie-talkie pushing it beyond the limits of
existing wireless intercom solutions.
When used with Artist, Bolero runs over a standards-based AES67 IP network with decentralized Antennas connected
to AES67 switches and to Artist frames equipped with AES67 client cards, providing a fully integrated point-to-point
roaming intercom ecosystem. The more decentralized Antennas added, the more robust the network becomes.
Bolero's Standalone Application is license-based and comes with several plug-and-play features. First, Antennas can be
used individually, in a ring structure, or daisy-chained as the situation demands. Also, up to 100 Antennas and 100
Beltpacks can be integrated into a single system. These Antennas can be placed up to 300 meters apart and up to five
can be powered via the CAT5 network using a new external PSU. The system is quickly and easily configured over the IP
connection using a web browser. Finally, a throw-down box can be used to interface the standalone Bolero with other
intercom systems via 4-wire.
The Bolero high-clarity voice codec provides both higher speech intelligibility and more efficient use of RF spectrum
supporting a higher number of Beltpacks per Antenna in the same audio bandwidth.
The Riedel-exclusive ADR technology, combines a unique receiver design with multiple diversity elements specifically
designed to reduce sensitivity to multipath RF reflections, making Bolero useable in challenging RF environments
where other systems have great difficulty.
The Beltpack itself features 6 buttons for 6 intercom channels or point to point communications, plus a separate
“Reply” button that easily facilitates a reply to the last person that called. Bolero’s sunlight readable and dimmable
display can be inverted so that it is readable in any orientation. The Beltpack can be used without a headset like a
walkie-talkie radio utilizing an integrated mic and speaker.
Bolero Beltpacks support Bluetooth 4.1, allowing either a Bluetooth headset or a Smartphone to be connected. When a
Smartphone is connected, the Beltpack can act like a car's "hands free" setup so the user can receive calls on their
phone and talk and listen via their Beltback headset. User can also inject phone calls directly into the intercom
channels, providing new levels of workflow flexibility.
Based on Riedel’s extensive rental experience, the Beltpack uses a combination of premium materials, including high-
impact plastics and rubber overmolds making it both tough and comfortable to use in any situation.
Light and powerful high performance lithium rechargeable battery packs are used for the Beltpack. Battery packs are
able to charge inside the Beltpack as well as separately in the 5-bay Charger.

1.5 System Modes
New in 2.0
The Bolero system features two modes of operation: Standalone/Link and Integrated/Artist.
Standalone/Link mode
This mode enables communication between Bolero Beltpacks or communication via user defined Partylines (see
chapter 'Partylines') in the Bolero system itself. An Artist system is not required in this mode but one Antenna need
a valid 'Standalone' license to operate in this mode (see chapter 'License Manager' and 'License Installation').
Furthermore IO Devices can be integrated in the Bolero system. A description of required steps can be found in
chapter: "Bolero-Antenna > Features in Detail > Standalone Setup".

ü Bolero Beltpack
ü IO Device (NSA-002A)
ü Gbps Network Switch (optionally with PoE+ functionality)
The NSA-002A must be operated in Bolero-Mode to be integrated in the Bolero network space.
The active mode is indicated by the upper device mode LED (blue: Bolero, violet: Manual).
The operation modes can be toggled by pushing the mode button for more than 5 seconds.
Further information can be found in the separate NSA-002A user manual.
· Connect the 'ETH1/2' port of the IO device (NSA-002A) to the network switch. If a PoE+ switch is used, the device is
also supplied with power.
· Alternatively, attach the device to mains.
· Connect the Antenna's 'AES67/Config' port to the network
switch.
· Power the Antenna via the separate Bolero-Power-Supply
'BL-EPS-1005-00', 'BL-EPS-1001-00' or via PoE.
The IP address of the Antenna is shown in the bottom right
of the display (e.g. 192.168.41.150). The e-ink display shows
the current IP also when the Antenna is not powered.
