Designed for Purists, By Perfectionists

Even the finest AV setups can be quietly compromised by one overlooked component: the standard network switch. Designed for data, not detail, these switches introduce noise, jitter, and interference that limit the performance of the entire system.

The OMNI LAN changes that. With triple-stage isolation, femto-precision clocking, and real-time performance monitoring, it strips away interference and restores timing precision at the source – unleashing a level of clarity and cohesion your system was built to deliver.

OMNI LAN: Where Precision Takes Priority

At the core of its design lies optical isolation, converting incoming data to light and back again, to create complete electrical separation between input and output. This eliminates electrical noise, interference, and stray currents from reaching a user’s most sensitive components. The result is greater precision, enhanced system efficiency, and a more immersive, true-to-source AV experience.

Purpose-Built

Traditionally, achieving optical galvanic isolation required a complex setup involving multiple media converters, power supplies, and extensive cabling. The OMNI LAN is designed from the ground-up as an elegant, purpose-built, plug-and-play solution to adding galvanic isolation to your system.

Users have 13 ports available: 4 ‘Ultra-Pure’ ports benefitting from 3 stages of isolation, including the internal optical isolation path purposefully designed for their most critical AV components, while the 9 ‘Standard’ ports include one stage of galvanic isolation designed for less critical devices such as routers, set top boxes, NAS drives, and consoles.

Noise-Free Networking

The OMNI employs multiple strategies to ensure a jitter and noise-free experience. After optically isolating the signal, it is then regenerated entirely using active circuitry to reconstruct the binary data stream and ensure pure, accurate signal transmission. This operates in tandem with the internal clock and iFi's own advanced GMT (Global Master Timing) system – a proprietary, out-of-the-box digital solution that eliminates jitter at its root, using femtosecond-level precision for ultra-stable clock timing.

With the OMNI LAN’s dedicated clock input/output, it can be utilized as a master clock in your high-end system to leverage the quality of iFi's clocking technology. For maximum compatibility, the OMNI LAN can also receive an external clock input, for those who have invested in an external dedicated master clock for their system.

Dynamic Data Dashboard

A retina-grade, full-color TFT display keeps you informed with real-time bandwidth data for each port. Switch views, monitor live traffic, and adjust settings directly.

The intuitive user interface offers more than just monitoring and update options. Clock sync input and output options can be controlled quickly and easily from the display and multi-function dial, while advanced grounding mode selection is also available, tailored to optimize noise across various setup environments:

DC-RF: Connects both DC ground and RF ground together
RF: Grounds RF only, with no DC ground
ISO: No DC or RF connection to ground

All dashboard settings are also accessible via the iFi Nexis app. Connecting through your smartphone lets you monitor traffic, manage grounding, adjust clock sync, and more – offering full control from the comfort of your listening chair, boardroom, or home cinema.
