The Ion Cannon Uplink Platform was a powerful satellite dish designed to interface and transmit coordinates to space-based ion cannons, installed at GDI upgrade centers. It communicated and control with the orbital ion cannon to call down strikes on enemy positions. It was a compact advancement to the advanced communication center used in the First Tiberium War, but still drew considerable amounts of power.
After the Second Tiberium War the decision was made to avoid over reliance on the fragile Upgrade Center. It was replaced by the much more armored ion cannon control bunkers.
