Lyon Video entered the mobile production industry in 1996. We maintain a fleet of ten production trucks, with four B-unit trucks as well. We have a wide variety of trucks available, both in size and capabilities. We are committed to providing high-quality facilities for our clients' production needs.
The PDF and XLS files contain information about the trucks and their equipment, as well as their monitor wall configurations.
MOBILE PRODUCTION NEWS
Kayenne is here!
Lyon Video is proud to announce that our first Kayenne switcher has been installed in MU-8. The power and flexibility of this switcher is unparalleled in the industry, and will provide our clients with cutting-edge capabilities. Watch for us to upgrade our other trucks as well!
Chyron Upgrades

MOBILE UNITS
HD Side-by-Side trucks
Lyon-1 & Lyon-2
Lyon-1 and Lyon-2 are nearly identical Side-by-Side or split trucks. These small but powerful HD SDI expando units are designed to handle a split feed, but are powerful enough to do a small show on their own. With their own Kalypso switcher, full audio with IFB and Intercom, EVS and tape facilities, they can make a split feed show feel more like a stand-alone production.
SD Trucks
Lyon-3
Lyon-3 is a fully digital SDI Expando. It can operate in SD16x9 mode for up-conversion, or in standard 4x3 mode for SD broadcast. This truck is wired for 16 cameras, 6 tape, 2 EVS, Kalypso switcher and Yamaha 4000 audio console.
Large HD Trucks
All of Lyon Video's large HD trucks share similar equipment and features. All have Grass Valley Switchers, GVG cameras, and Calrec audio consoles. All of these trucks carry their full compliment of gear and cable, which means that they can do an entire show without requiring a B-unit or chase truck. For additional space and support needs, we do of course have B-units available.
LYON-5
Lyon-5 is a walk-thru Expando body, wired for 16 cameras, EVS XT servers, X-file, Chyron Duet HyperX2, and a Calrec Q2 console.
LYON-6
Lyon-6 was our first full HD truck. This full-length walk-thru expando trailer is wired for 16 cameras, carries EVS XT(2) servers, and features a Calrec Alpha digital audio console.
LYON-7 and LYON-8
Lyon-7 and Lyon-8 have a nearly identical floorplan to Lyon 6 but are outfitted with Calrec Sigma digital audio consoles with Bluefin. Lyon-8 now has the new Kayenne switcher from Grass Valley!
Right-Sized HD Trucks
These trucks are full HD Expando trucks, but were spec'ed for smaller shows. They still have Kalypso switchers, GVG cameras and Calrec audio consoles. The difference is not quality, it's quantity, and it isn't a big difference!
LYON-9
Lyon-9 shares the capabilities and flexibility of our larger HD trucks, while having a smaller installed base of cameras and servers. Now equipped with a Chyron HyperX3 Duet. This unit travels with a Calrec Omega digital audio console.
MU-10
Lyon Video Mobile Unit 10 carries the same equipment complement as MU-9, with a slightly larger layout.
B-Units
Lyon Video maintains 4 B-Unit trucks to complement our fleet of mobile production trucks. Whether you need "a little more space" for graphics, or golfcarts and gators for your show, we have a B-Unit to meet your needs.
LYON-4
Lyon-4 is an industry workhorse. Recently upgraded with Ikegami 388 cameras, and featuring a GVG 3000 switcher and Yamaha 3500 audio console,this truck continues to provide a stable broadcast platform in SD video.
