Overview

The Final Word in Noise-Free Networking.

Specified into reference-grade AV systems by integrators who refuse to compromise, meet the OMNI LAN - the high-performance network switch engineered to eliminate the noise-related callbacks that plague sensitive installs.

The OMNI LAN is a plug-and-play network switch, designed to strip noise from the signal at every stage. Three individual stages of isolation, including optical galvanic isolation, block interference before it reaches the connected system, while the femto-precision clock system eliminates any jitter.

Packed with meticulously engineered power supply circuitry, unparalleled connectivity, and real-time data speeds displayed on screen, the OMNI LAN is the most comprehensive AV-focused network switch available to the custom install trade.

Key features

Why choose OMNI LAN?

Clear advantages for the installation - the reasons integrators choose this product.

Triple Stage Isolation
Incoming network signals are first galvanically isolated, then converted to light and back, then actively regenerated - so network noise and interference never reach your client's AV system.
Femto-Precision Clocking
Internal Global Master Timing (GMT) femto-precision clocking eliminates jitter, for impeccable timing across your network.
Dynamic Data Display
Real time incoming and outgoing bandwidth for every port, shown on screen for troubleshooting - plus full device control and updates from your smartphone.

It's Not Just Ones and Zeroes.

Network switches link multiple devices within a system. However, they also allow electrical noise from each connected device to spread throughout the network.

In AV systems, this shared noise can degrade performance - particularly timing accuracy - as the signal sent to downstream components like music streamers or DACs carries that noise with it. At the digital-to-analogue conversion stage, this interference disrupts timing, adversely affecting sound quality.

The OMNI LAN is purpose-built for custom AV installations. It strips away electrical noise and interference to preserve signal purity. With advanced isolation, premium components, custom circuitry, and advanced clocking, it minimises both signal and system noise - regenerating a cleaner signal with significantly reduced jitter.

For those with a reference-grade master clock, the OMNI LAN also includes an input for seamless system synchronisation.

Rack Mounting. Built for Custom Install.

For commercial, home theatre, and custom installations, you can additionally purchase the OMNI Rack Mount Kit. Built from cold-rolled steel and optimised for airflow, it's built to handle the demands of complex systems.

It supports single and dual device configurations - and front and rear mounting options - enabling a powerful 26-port switch when two OMNI LANs are installed side by side.

Dynamic Data Dashboard.

The high-resolution colour TFT display gives you real-time bandwidth data for each port, handy for monitoring and troubleshooting without a laptop. Want to focus on just the active ports? Scroll and switch views.

Easily configure device settings via the intuitive on-screen interface, including three advanced grounding modes tailored to optimise noise across various setup environments:

DC-RF: Connects DC ground and RF ground to a common point.

RF: Handles grounding of RF currents separately.

ISO: Isolates device from the primary grounding system.

Mains Noise Protection.

Noise infiltrating from the mains? We've tackled that too.

The OMNI LAN's isolated power supply, multi-stage LC filtering, and multiple grounding loops, blocks mains noise before it touches the signal. Paired with an aftermarket iPower power supply and its Active Noise Cancellation, the network audio signal stays pristine.

Applications

Where this product fits.

Typical Custom Install and professional environments where integrators specify this product.

01
Luxury Residential & Whole-Home Systems
Install the OMNI LAN as the house network switch: standard ports for routers, NAS and control, and ultra-pure ports for the streamers and DACs that carry audio through every zone.
02
Reference Home Cinema & Private Screening Rooms
Put the cinema streamer, media server and processor on the optically isolated ultra-pure ports so network noise from the rest of the home never reaches picture or sound.
03
Dedicated Listening Rooms
Feed the music streamer or DAC from an ultra-pure port, using optical isolation and femto-precision clocking so Ethernet jitter does not colour two-channel playback.
04
Recording, Mastering & Broadcast Studios
Sit the OMNI LAN at the boundary between facility IT and the production network, isolating consoles, recorders and monitoring from noisy office traffic.
05
Luxury Hospitality & Member's Clubs
Rack-mount one or two units to serve suites, lounges and screening rooms from a single optically isolated switch that can be monitored and updated on site.
06
Flagship Showrooms & Dealer Reference Rooms
Use it as the demo-room switch so visiting clients hear and see the system with the network noise removed, not with the building's IT still in the signal path.
