The IPX is a multiservice, narrowband cell switch. It is available in 8-, 16-, or 32-slot versions. The IPX 8 can be either standalone or rack-mounted; the IPX 16 and IPX 32 are freestanding. The IPX product family seamlessly integrates with the other Cisco products, including the Cisco BPX 8600 series and FastPAD products, which are all managed with StrataView network management software. EOL: Cisco IPX
Product Overview
Note The IPX is the predecessor to the IGX 8400 series wide-area switch.
The IPX supports a wide range of narrowband and broadband applications for both enterprise networks and service provider networks. In a multiservice environment, the IPX allows you to easily and cost-effectively launch new services and expand system capacity to meet growing demands. Similarly, as technologies evolve and WAN bandwidth increases, the IPX provides you with seamless growth and migration.
The IPX, IGX 8400 series, and BPX 8600 series switches share many of the same core capabilities and Intelligent QoS Management Suite including the following:
Advanced CoS (Class of Service) Management
Optimized Bandwidth Management
Dynamic Buffer Management
Automatic Routing Management
The IPX lets you migrate from narrowband speed to broadband ATM on the same platform, providing unmatched WAN investment protection.

The IPX is supported by Cisco`s WAN ATM network management tools.
StrataView Plus provides the unique capabilities required for managing ATM WANs. StrataView Plus distributes the logical management intelligence throughout the network through a set of building blocks, or modules. By distributing network management functionality, service management and process automation can be tightly integrated—simplifying management of even the most complex WANs and providing a comprehensive end-to-end management solution.
StrataView Plus is an SNMP-based multiprotocol management environment designed specifically for ATM WANs. It provides integrated service management and process automation to simplify management of even the most complex networks. StrataView Plus lets you easily monitor usage, provision connections, prototype services, optimize traffic flow, model network design, and track network statistics. See the "Cisco StrataView Plus ATM Network Management" chapter for additional information about StrataView Plus.
The following table lists the product numbers you can use to order IPX products, accessories, and spares. If a product number ends with an equal sign (=), the item can be ordered only as a spare. If a product number does not end with an equal sign, the item can be ordered as a spare or as a configurable part of a system order
