No. OmniAir Consortium is technology neutral. We promote the use of trusted, certified communications technologies. However, we do not advocate for any specific technology or protocol. OmniAir is communications media agnostic. OmniAir is focused on ensuring that wireless communications devices and systems used for transportation safety and mobility are interoperable, secure, and conform to industry standards.
No. OmniAir Consortium does not engage in lobbying or legislative advocacy of any kind. OmniAir’s focus is on technology interoperability through testing and certification.
OmniAir’s Working Groups provide an opportunity for OmniAir Members to help develop test specifications, test plans and procedures, and policies that govern OmniAir’s testing and certification programs. All OmniAir Members are eligible to participate in Working Groups, where members develop consensus interpretation of industry standards and requirements. Working Group members have the opportunity propose specifications, draft documents, and vote on test plans and test documents through a balloting process. OmniAir currently has 9 active Working Groups, along with multiple Sub-Working Groups and tiger teams, addressing topics such as electronic toll collection, cybersecurity, V2X testing, and cybersecurity. To learn more about OmniAir Working Groups, please visit our Working Group page.
OmniAir Certification is an independent, third-party testing and certification process from OmniAir Consortium that ensures that devices and systems conform to industry standards and meet interoperability and security requirements. OmniAir Certified® devices are tested using validated test cases, qualified test equipment, and accredited test laboratories and authorized field test sites.
OmniAir Consortium offers certification programs primarily for communications devices, systems, and applications used in transportation. OmniAir offers third-party testing and certification programs for electronic toll collection equipment, including RFID transponders and readers, including both single and multi-protocol devices. OmniAir also offers certification programs for connected vehicle technologies, including vehicle-to-everything (V2X) technologies, including cellular vehicle-to-everything (C-V2X) on-board units (OBU), roadside units (RSU), modules and aftermarket V2X (AVD) devices. OmniAir is developing new certification programs for V2X-based tolling, network V2X (V2N) and V2X safety applications.
Plugfests are optional but strongly encouraged.
- OmniAir hosts two Plugfest readiness testing events per year.
- Plugfests provide opportunities to test devices with others for security, conformance, and interoperability.
- Many Infrastructure Owner-Operators (IOOs) request proof of Plugfest participation in RFPs if a product is not yet certified.
Upcoming Plugfest dates are posted on the OmniAir website.
