second part: the UBR (Universal Broadband Router)- in this case Neath 2
third part: Which cable on the UBR the person is connected two. There are 6 cables on each UBR [although sometimes not all of them are used]
fourth part: upstream channel id... 6 upstream channels on each cable... (or is it 7  )
next part: customer number... not related to anything at all... just a number
last part... self explanatory
btw just out of interest, why do you want to know??

cpc1 etc defines which of the ubr's ip ranges they are on (the first three parts, for example 81.1.2.x) and the cust number (like cust200) is the final part of the ip (making like 81.1.2.200 in the example).
