Overview
Streamline alarm monitoring and migrate legacy systems to modern IP with the Bosch B465-SW-1640 Universal Alarm Communicator Kit. This Conettix dual-path communicator converts PSTN digital dialer or dry-contact outputs into IP signals for dependable central station reporting, preserving existing panel programming so installations are fast and predictable. Built-in Ethernet and support for optional Conettix cellular modules (B440/B441/B442/B443) provide resilient, multi-path reporting to minimize downtime and ensure continuous security and surveillance monitoring.
Designed for commercial fire and burglary applications, the B465 is UL 864 10th Edition (per NFPA 72) approved and auto-detects Contact ID, SIA and pulse formats for broad panel compatibility. Installers benefit from flexible I/O — four configurable inputs and three outputs — and simple power options (16.5 VAC transformer or 24 VDC supply). Whether you're upgrading a facility for IP monitoring, adding cellular failover for redundancy, or standardizing reporting to a central station, the Bosch B465 reduces complexity while improving reliability.
Ideal for integrators, security managers and system installers—deploy the B465 to modernize alarm communication and maintain continuous, compliant monitoring.
