IPC series
Hub for the ReadyLinks IPC client series, covering the IPC-2TCP-RPF, IPC-1 and IPC-4S model families, the common IPC feature set and the benefits of the ReadyLinks platform.
Powerful ReadyLinks clients unlock robust edge performance and insights. Enable performant subscriber, wireless and enterprise networks over existing infrastructure today.
ReadyLinks IPC access switches provide Layer 2 access switching, ideal for enterprise, hospitality, ISP, and IP surveillance networks. Full physical specifications and LED behavior are on the Clients overview, and deployment guidance is in the IPC clients guide.
#Models
The IPC line is organized into three model families:
- IPC-2TCP-RPF series: IPC-2TCP and IPC-2TCP-RPF, with a RJ45 / Coax (F) combo ReadyLink port and two 1GbE RJ45 ports.
- IPC-1 series: IPC-1T (twisted pair, RJ45) and IPC-1C (coax, F connector), each with one 1GbE RJ45 port.
- IPC-4S series: IPC-4STP (twisted pair, Phoenix) and IPC-4SBNC (coax, BNC) for IP surveillance deployments.
For a side-by-side comparison of all six models, see the models table in the IPC clients guide.

#Benefits
#Point-to-multipoint
Service over 360 end points from one switch leveraging ReadyLinks point-to-multipoint technology. Deliver high-speed Ethernet services over existing splitters and taps without replacing any existing cable infrastructure. Coexist with existing cable services using the built-in spectrum filtering functionality.
#Power options
ReadyLinks provides a variety of options for upgrading power constrained networks, whether power is available in the equipment closet or in the customer premise. ReadyLinks PoX™ allows you to deliver PoE, PoE+, and PoE++ over single pair copper or coax infrastructure.
#Cloud networking
Cloud Networking allows for Infrastructure as Code (IaC) to be used to create and manage network infrastructure. The ReadyLinks API is a RESTful API that allows for the creation and management of network infrastructure. The API is available to all users of the ReadyLinks platform. Some examples of what the ReadyLinks API allows you to do:
- Add new organizations, admins, networks, devices, VLANs, and more
- Configure thousands of networks in minutes
- Configure thousands of devices in minutes
