Paradox IPC10 Base Station

Issue 1 2025 Products & Solutions

Managing the security of estates, whether residential or commercial, demands a sophisticated, reliable, and scalable solution. Enter the Paradox IPC10 Base Station, a device designed to streamline communication between Paradox alarm systems and central monitoring stations (CMS).

At its heart, the IPC10 serves as a powerful IP to CMS converter, bridging Paradox’s encrypted IP protocols with industry-standard CMS protocols like Sur-Gard MLR2-DG, Ademco CID-TCP and Ademco 685. This conversion ensures seamless transmission of critical security data, enabling quick response times and reliable monitoring.

The IPC10 stands out for its scalability, supporting up to 5000 accounts. This high processing capacity makes it particularly suited for estate environments, which often require centralised monitoring for multiple buildings, units, or access points. Security operators can manage the entire estate’s surveillance and alarms through one streamlined system without overloading their infrastructure.

Adding to its appeal is its support for MQTT technology, a modern protocol that ensures fast, lightweight, and reliable data communication. The IPC10 ensures that information flows smoothly and efficiently, reducing latency and enhancing real-time monitoring capabilities.

The IPC10’s compact design, low power consumption and single-wire connection further contribute to its suitability for estate applications. Its small footprint makes it easy to install in space-constrained control rooms, while its energy efficiency keeps operational costs low – a critical consideration for long-term estate management.

Additionally, compatibility with the IP180 module extends the IPC10’s functionality, making it a versatile and future-proof choice for estate security systems. Its ability to integrate seamlessly into existing Paradox ecosystems ensures minimal disruption during upgrades and fosters a cohesive approach to security.

The BlueEye end user app and Babyware software are indispensable tools for both end users and security professionals managing Paradox alarm systems. BlueEye provides end users with convenient remote control and monitoring capabilities, while Babyware offers security professionals a robust platform to configure and service systems remotely. These tools enhance user experience and streamline system maintenance, ensuring optimal security management.

In an ever-changing security landscape, the Paradox IPC10 Base Station empowers estates with the tools they need to stay ahead, ensuring peace of mind for residents, employees, and stakeholders alike.
