Notes on this record (19)
  • Spec values differ between Shopify variants for: Interface; record uses the default (first) variant
  • EC Declaration of Conformity is a PDF on media.screensteps.com (not an allowed source, not fetched); ce_red / rohs_weee left null unless the guide article text names the directive
  • EUR pricing not available: store serves USD only (?currency=EUR / ?country=DE return USD prices; /en-de, /de, /en-eu paths 404)
  • tco.warranty_months: Teradek-wide manufacturer's warranty stated on the Pro Care comparison table
  • use_cases: only one site sentence matches a workflow; no secondary use case available
  • ODS lists SKU 10-0033, which the scraped variants do not have (scraped variants stay the master).
  • ODS variants (names only): USB-A; USB-C; 5-Pin Locking; No Cable
  • ODS Node 5G specs.network.ethernet_ports says 'none' (nothing applies); no claim made (row 86).

  • ODS powered_by: Host Teradek encoder (5V DC USB / 5-pin) (Draws up to 6W directly from host device without external battery)
  • Owner, 2026-10-22: There is no official end-of-life policy yet (one is being worked on); until it exists, support covers every product, so no end-of-support date is given.
  • Owner, 2026-10-24: Node modems take any SIM, the customer's own SIM included.
  • The official firmware feed (https://update.teradek.com/wares.php?product=node) lists guides and tools for this product but no firmware, so any firmware values come from other sources.
