SilentPower Unveils the OMNI LAN Network Switch for High-Performance AV

Explore the OMNI LAN, an optically isolated network switch ensuring pristine audio and video quality for your AV setup.

Introduction to OMNI LAN

SilentPower, a subsidiary of iFi audio, proudly announces the arrival of the OMNI LAN, an innovative optically isolated network switch aimed at audio-visual enthusiasts who demand an unparalleled experience. Launched on April 15, 2025, this cutting-edge device tackles a common issue in high-end AV setups: the standard network switch.

Many audio and video systems can be compromised by overlooked components, especially standard network switches that are designed primarily for data transfer rather than maintaining the integrity of audio and video detail. This oversight can introduce noise, jitter, and interference, ultimately hindering the performance of the entire system.

Key Features of OMNI LAN

Exceptional Design and Performance

• Internal Optical Fibre: Converts electrical signals to optical signals, effectively eliminating electrical noise and surpassing traditional galvanic isolation.
• Triple-Stage Isolation: Provides superior noise filtering for pristine audio and video clarity.
• Real-Time Data Analytics: A built-in dynamic dashboard displays incoming and outgoing port data speeds, viewable directly from your smartphone.
• Versatile Integration: Features 13 ports, including 9 standard ports for routers and servers with one-stage isolation, and 4 Ultra-Pure ports with three-stage isolation for streamers and receivers.
• 10MHz Clock Sync: Minimizes jitter using internal femto-precision clocking, with options for external sync.

The Downside of Standard Switches

Designed for Data, Not Detail

Standard network switches often prioritize data transfer speeds over the quality of audio and video. While these devices may be adequate for routine use, they can impede the full potential of sophisticated AV systems.

When electrical noise travels through network cables alongside binary data signals, it can degrade the performance of AV devices. The clock timing necessary for accurate data conversion can become compromised, resulting in jitter and a loss of clarity, detail, and timing accuracy.

Precision Redefined with OMNI LAN

Elevating AV Experiences

The OMNI LAN addresses these challenges head-on by utilizing optical isolation technology. By converting incoming data into light signals, it ensures complete electrical separation between inputs and outputs, effectively removing electrical noise and interference.

This innovative approach improves timing at the conversion stage, leading to greater precision, enhanced efficiency, and an immersive AV experience that remains true to the original source.

Advanced Noise-Reduction Strategies

Ensuring a Jitter-Free Experience

The OMNI LAN employs multiple strategies to create a jitter and noise-free environment. After isolating the signal optically, it regenerates the data using active circuitry to ensure pure and accurate transmission. Coupled with its internal clock and proprietary GMT (Global Master Timing) system, the OMNI LAN eliminates jitter at its root with femtosecond precision, ensuring ultra-stable clock timing.

Additionally, the switch allows for clock input/output capabilities, enabling it to serve as a master clock in your high-end system. It can also accept external clock inputs for those who have invested in dedicated master clocks.

Dynamic Data Dashboard for User Control

Intuitive User Interface

The OMNI LAN features a retina-grade, full-color TFT display that provides real-time bandwidth data for each port. With the ability to switch views, monitor live traffic, and adjust settings directly from the interface, users can maintain complete control over their system.

Moreover, the device is compatible with the iFi Nexis app, allowing users to monitor traffic, manage grounding, and adjust clock sync. Firmware updates can seamlessly be performed through the app, keeping the OMNI LAN optimized without needing to disconnect it from the system.

Professional Rack Mounting Solutions

Designed for Seamless Integration

For those with rack-mounted home theater setups or professional networking environments, the OMNI Rack Mount Kit offers a streamlined solution. Crafted from cold-rolled steel and optimized for ventilation, this kit supports single and dual-device configurations, allowing for front or rear mounting. This design creates a powerful 24-port switch when two units are paired.
