SCENE 01 / WIRELESS SYSTEMS
Wireless Systems in Saudi Arabia
Complete wireless infrastructure for your Saudi production.
Here is how this works in practice. Wireless communication and audio transmission systems keep shoot teams connected and audio signals flowing without physical cables. These systems cover wireless intercoms, IFB feeds, audio hops, and comms networks that are key for setting up large crews across expansive sets or locations.
Here is the short of it. We give wireless system packages configured for your production's specific communication and audio distribution needs. Our team sets up frequency planning and gear testing to make sure interference-free operation, allowing seamless crew communication and reliable audio transmission across your shoot.

On Location
Integrated wireless audio, Teradek Bolt 6 video, and Preston FIZ lens-control infrastructure with CST frequency licensing for MBC Studios, NEOM, and AlUla sets.
We design Saudi wireless infrastructure as a single set up stack. Audio blocks run Lectrosonics SSM, Wisycom MTP60, and Sennheiser SK6212. Wireless video transmitters use Teradek Bolt 6 LT and 4K, with onboard SmallHD and TVLogic monitor pairs.
Lens and director comms layer on top. Preston FIZ and ARRI WCU-4 handle wireless lens control. Lectrosonics IFB and Wisycom IFB feeds cover director comms. Clear-Com FreeSpeak II and Riedel Bolero packages from MBC Studios handle video village intercom.
Here is how this works in practice. CST (Communications, Space and Technology Commission) licensing covers the whole stack on a single bulk filing per production. We run Lectrosonics SmartTune plus Shure Wireless Workbench scans before camera roll. The scans lock blocks clear of three RF environments. MBC's broadcast bleed in Riyadh, the NEOM XR Lab RF environment at Bajdah Studios, and the unique signal landscape inside AlUla's sandstone canyons.
Filmquip Dubai, Picture Works Dubai, and Sigma Cine Dubai cover overflow. Transport runs via the 12-hour E11 highway corridor.
Here is the short of it. Several major shoots run multi-axis wireless stacks. Examples have Kandahar at NEOM, Desert Warrior at AlUla, the Telfaz11 commercial pipeline, and MBC's flagship Riyadh shoots. In each, audio, video, and lens control share antenna distribution and RF planning.
Here is the breakdown. Our coordinators map Teradek Bolt antenna farms across stage-floor configurations at MBC Studios Riyadh and the 9,000 m² NEOM Bajdah tricky. We plan portable repeater fleets on Toyota Land Cruisers. That matters when shoots cross the Hisma Plateau or push into Tabuk province, where mobile coverage collapses.
Heat is the working constraint. Teradek nodes throttle past 45°C. Preston motors slow in haboob conditions. We specify AC-trailer RF coordinator stations for AlUla and Empty Quarter summer schedules. We route prayer-time pauses (Fajr, Dhuhr, Asr, Maghrib, Isha) as battery-swap windows for the entire wireless stack.
FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
What wireless systems do you coordinate?
We set up all production wireless systems including microphones, IFB/IEM, wireless video, lens control, intercom, and any other RF gear. Full planning makes sure all systems work as one without interference.
How do you handle frequency allocation?
We scan your locations, identify clean frequencies within Saudi legal range, and allocate channels to all departments. We give frequency records and work with each department to program their gear.
What about wireless video systems?
We supply Teradek Bolt, Vaxis Storm, and other wireless video systems for video village distribution. These give zero-latency transmission allowing directors and clients to monitor without cables.
Do you provide wireless lens control?
Yes, we supply wireless follow focus systems including Preston FIZ, ARRI WCU-4, and Tilta Nucleus. We make sure lens control frequencies are set up with other wireless systems.
What about Saudi RF regulations?
We're familiar with Saudi frequency rules and make sure all wireless gear operates within legal range. We can advise on sign-ups needs for high-power systems.
Can you support large-scale productions?
Yes, we often support shoots with dozens of wireless channels across many departments. Complex shoots gain most from full RF planning.
