What is IPLC?
IPLC stands for International Private Leased Circuit. It is a dedicated, point-to-point private line that connects two locations in different countries, with the full capacity reserved for you end to end.
Because the circuit is not shared and never crosses the public internet, an IPLC gives consistent latency, strong security and predictable performance. Organisations use IPLCs to link offices and data centres, carry voice and video, replicate data between countries and, for carriers and ISPs, build international backbone capacity.

How an IPLC works
An IPLC joins your two sites with one continuous, dedicated circuit. Local access links each site to a carrier point of presence, and reserved international capacity carries the traffic between countries over subsea and terrestrial cable systems. The circuit is handed off to you as SDH or Ethernet, and nothing else shares its bandwidth.
IPLC bandwidth and handoff
We deliver IPLCs from 64 Kbps to 10 Gbps, with SDH and Ethernet over SDH (EoSDH) services. The capacity and interfaces available depend on the route, and we confirm them for each pair of locations when quoting.
Full-circuit vs half-circuit IPLC
| Option | How it works | Best for |
|---|---|---|
| End-to-end (full circuit) | One provider delivers the whole circuit between both locations, under one contract and one SLA. | Enterprises that want a single point of contact for the entire link |
| Half circuit | Each end of the circuit is supplied by a carrier in that country, and the two halves meet at an agreed midpoint. | Carriers and licensed operators that already hold one end of the route |
Protection options
| Type | What happens if a cable fails |
|---|---|
| Unprotected | The circuit runs on a single path. It is the lowest-cost option, suitable where you have another backup link. |
| Protected | A standby path is reserved in advance and traffic switches over automatically. |
| Restorable | Traffic is re-routed over alternative capacity after a fault, restoring the service without a dedicated standby path. |
IPLC vs NPLC, IEPL and MPLS
| Service | Scope | Topology | Typical use |
|---|---|---|---|
| IPLC (International Private Leased Circuit) | Between two countries | Point-to-point, dedicated | International office, data-centre and backbone links |
| NPLC (National / domestic private leased circuit) | Within one country | Point-to-point, dedicated | Linking sites in the same country |
| IEPL (International Ethernet Private Line) | Between two countries | Point-to-point, Ethernet handoff | International links that plug straight into Ethernet switches and routers |
| MPLS IP-VPN | Many sites, any countries | Any-to-any, managed network | Connecting many branches with QoS |

Who uses IPLCs
- Carriers, LDIs and ISPs building international backbone and upstream capacity (connectivity for ISPs and carriers).
- Banks and financial institutions replicating data between data centres and DR sites (banking & financial services).
- Energy companies linking operations centres and international offices (oil, gas & energy).
- Multinationals and international call centres connecting offices in different countries with guaranteed capacity.
