Gateway Module
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2011 Mercury Milan, 2011 Lincoln MKZ, and 2011 Ford Fusion. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
The IPC is the gateway module, translating messages on the HS-CAN to MS-CAN and vice versa. This allows a message to be distributed throughout both networks. The IPC is the only module on this vehicle that has this ability.
