IPC-4S series
The IPC-4S series (IPC-4STP and IPC-4SBNC) enables IoT and IP surveillance deployments with 4S electric box retrofits and PoE+ at the edge. Models, hardware configuration and default configuration.
ReadyLinks IPC-4S series enables IoT deployments with 4S electric box retrofits and PoE+ at the edge. IPC-4S clients are managed via the ReadyView dashboard and support the common IPC feature set.

#ReadyLink ports
- Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) Orthogonal Frequency-Division Multiplexing (OFDM) in 4-200MHz offers 2Gbps bit rate and PoE+ over 2-6 conductors.
- LDPC, FEC line condition adaptive
- ~40dB of attenuation in the frequency range 4-200MHz

#Configuration
By default, the IPC-4S acts as a transparent bridge, simply passing traffic to and from the connected ReadyLink switchport. However, each IPC-4S is capable of advanced switching capabilities such as VLAN tagging, IGMP snooping, rate limits, etc.
For the recommended staging process before installation, see Deployment and staging in the IPC clients guide.
