The workflows [RF-X Video Auto Switcher Auto-Switcher for Bolt 4K/6 and Ranger RXs](https://specs-dev.teradek.com/products/prod.rf-x.md) serves, how well it fits each, which slot it fills, and what else is needed.

## Core (1)

- RF-X in [RF camera for live sports / IMAG](https://specs-dev.teradek.com/workflows/wf.WF-03.md): fit core, role RF diversity auto-switcher placed after 2-6 Bolt or Ranger receivers of one TX; not a transmitter or receiver, slots 2. link; 4. receive, 1 per camera TX that needs redundant receivers (2-6 RX inputs each). Caveat: All Bolts or all Rangers; Bolt and Ranger cannot be mixed. Local SDI only, no IP. Radio licensing follows the TX/RX used. \| Requires (as stated): Ranger or Bolt TX \| Requires (as stated): 2 to 6 Ranger or Bolt RX of the same family Confidence: high.
## Supporting (2)

- RF-X in [Multi-camera live production (worship, education, corporate, concerts) (draft: corrections pending)](https://specs-dev.teradek.com/workflows/wf.WF-07.md): fit supporting, role Redundant-receiver auto-switcher for a roaming wireless camera, slots 2. link; 3. receive, 1 per roaming camera needing redundancy. Caveat: Concerts and arenas are documented; churches or schools are not named. \| Requires (as stated): Ranger or Bolt TX/RX sets Confidence: high.
- RF-X in [On-set zero-delay monitoring](https://specs-dev.teradek.com/workflows/wf.WF-09.md): fit supporting, role Auto-switcher for long tracking shots in RF-congested sets; fibre output can extend video to DIT carts and video village, slots 3. link; 5. receive, 1 per camera TX with redundant RX. Caveat: Adds cost and receiver count; typical only on demanding sets. \| Requires (as stated): Bolt or Ranger TX and 2-6 RX Confidence: high.
## Not suitable (2)

- RF-X in [Live post review (editorial, HDR color)](https://specs-dev.teradek.com/workflows/wf.WF-13.md): fit not suitable. Why: The existing use_case row maps the RF-X fibre output to WF-13 (live post review), but the source sentence is about on-set DIT carts and video village (WF-09); RF-X has no cloud or IP path.
- RF-X in [Wireless camera control and live color](https://specs-dev.teradek.com/workflows/wf.WF-10.md): fit not suitable. Why: RF-X switches SDI video; it carries no camera-control or LUT data link of its own.
