Product Description

The Extron IPCP Pro S1 xi control processor is a high-performance, compact control processor engineered for centralized AV control in small to medium-size commercial applications. With greater processing power and twice the memory of the prior IP Link Pro series, this Extron control processor pairs Gigabit Ethernet with advanced security to coordinate displays, switchers, sources, and room peripherals from a single, network-connected device. Its quarter-rack, 1U metal enclosure fits cleanly behind a display, inside a credenza, or in a shared equipment rack, making it well suited to conference rooms, huddle spaces, classrooms, and divisible meeting rooms.

Extron IPCP Pro S1 xi IPCP Pro xi Control Processor Room Control Extron

As an IP Link Pro control processor, the IPCP Pro S1 xi supports TouchLink Pro touchpanels, Network Button Panels, and IPL EXP expansion interfaces over standard network infrastructure, so a single processor can drive a complete room control system. It speaks secure communication protocols including HTTPS, SSH, SFTP, and 802.1X port-based network access control, and it integrates with building management system protocols such as BACnet, KNX, and DALI for coordinated control of HVAC, lighting, and security alongside the AV system. One bidirectional RS-232/RS-422/RS-485 serial port adds direct device control for legacy and serial-only equipment.

The IPCP Pro S1 xi is configured with Global Configurator Plus or Global Configurator Professional, or programmed with Global Scripter, and supports Extron LinkLicense to expand system functionality over time. For multi-room deployments, GlobalViewer Enterprise delivers centralized AV resource monitoring, management, and control across a network. Buyers comparing models for larger systems should review the Extron IPCP Pro 350 xi control processor, and can browse the full range of compatible control hardware in the Extron collection.

Key Features

  • IP Link Pro Endpoint Support — The processor manages TouchLink Pro touchpanels, Network Button Panels, eBUS button panels, and IPL EXP expansion interfaces over a standard Ethernet network.
  • Gigabit Ethernet Control — A single 10/100/1000Base-T RJ-45 port monitors and controls Ethernet-enabled AV devices such as displays, switchers, and sources across the network.
  • Secure Communication Protocols — The IPCP Pro S1 xi supports industry-standard protocols including HTTPS, SSH, SFTP, SMTP, NTP, and IEEE 802.1X authentication for port-based network access control.
  • Bidirectional Serial Port — One configurable RS-232/RS-422/RS-485 serial port with hardware and software handshaking provides direct control of serial-connected devices.
  • Building Management Integration — Native support for BACnet, KNX, and DALI lets the processor coordinate HVAC, lighting, power, fire, and security systems with the AV control system.
  • Central File Deployment — A primary control processor automatically transfers project files, configurations, and programs to touchpanels, processors, and button panels as they come online, accelerating system commissioning.
  • LinkLicense Expandability — Extron LinkLicense unlocks additional features and functionality, allowing the control system to grow with evolving room requirements.
  • Flexible Powering — The unit operates from the included external Extron Everlast power supply or from Power over Ethernet compliant with PoE 802.3af, Class 3.
  • Compact Commercial-Grade Enclosure — A 1U-high, quarter-rack-wide metal enclosure with convection cooling mounts on an optional rack shelf or furniture bracket and is UL 2043 plenum rated.
