Engineered once, deployable many times.
A mobile broadcast trailer (also known as an outside broadcast or OB van) is a road-deployable broadcast production facility for live event coverage — sports broadcasts, news events, concerts, political summits, and entertainment productions. structmod mobile broadcast trailers integrate the production control room, technical infrastructure (cameras, audio, video switching, graphics), satellite or fibre uplink for transmission to the broadcast network, and operator workspace into a single road-deployable unit. The trailer drives between event venues and sets up for broadcast within hours of arrival.
Standard configurations include the production control room with director's position, vision mixing, audio mixing, graphics workstation, and engineering monitoring; equipment racks housing broadcast servers, video switching matrix, audio infrastructure, encoders, and uplink electronics; satellite uplink dish (deployable mast or fixed roof-mount) or fibre/IP transmission infrastructure for broadcast network connection; cable management for outside connections to cameras, audio sources, and venue infrastructure; operator workspace with seating for production team during broadcasts. Acoustic isolation prevents external venue noise from affecting production audio; air conditioning maintains equipment temperature during sustained operation; redundant power systems (mains plus generator backup) prevent transmission interruption.
structmod mobile broadcast trailers serve sports broadcasters covering football, basketball, motorsport and other live sports across multiple venues per week; news broadcasters covering political events, breaking news, and major announcements; entertainment broadcasters covering concerts, festivals, and award shows; corporate broadcasters covering major announcements and stakeholder events. The trailer-based configuration enables broadcasters to maintain consistent production quality across different venues without relying on venue infrastructure. Lead time is 14-18 weeks from contract signature for stock configurations, 16-20 weeks for specialty configurations including 4K UHD or specialty audio infrastructure. EN 1090 EXC-2 chassis, IEC 60364-1 commercial electrical with broadcast-grade earthing, EMI/EMC compliance for sensitive electronics.
