OMNEO

OMNEO is an evolutionary solution for connecting devices over IP to exchange information including control and audio content for use in applications such as pro audio, public address, intercom, and conferencing.

OMNEO is an architectural approach to connecting devices that need to exchange information such as audio content or device control.

Built upon multiple technologies, including IP and open public standards, OMNEO supports the technologies of today – such as Audinate’s Dante – while adopting the standards of tomorrow. OMNEO offers a professional-grade media networking solution that provides interoperability, unique features for easier installation, better performance, and greater scalability than any other IP offering on the market.

OMNEO Media Network Technology for RTS Intercom Systems

Network device

Architecture

RTS and it's parent organization, Bosch Building Technologies, have introduced a public standards based media networking architecture to promote device interconnectivity.

This architecture – called OMNEO – has two main components: (1) a media program transport protocol suite that offers low latency, high-quality multichannel media stream exchange; and (2) a robust control protocol suite that provides reliable and secure system control and monitoring for pro media networks of all sizes, from small to intercontinental.

OMNEO is fully compatible with Audinate's Dante networking technology to provide standards-based, routable IP media transport. In addition, OMNEO has been designed to support emerging and future standards as they come to the market.

OMNEO's system control component is AES70 also referred to as OCA, for Open Control Architecture, it includes many features for flexibility, reliability, security, and compatible growth over the years.
