Communicans Receiver/Gateway upgrades alarm modules to IP.
April 21, 2008 -
Designed to work with Conettix security- and fire-alarm modules, D6100i module supports Internet or Intranet communications over LAN or WAN in addition to telephone line communications over PSTN. It accepts control panel signal transmission, translates signal to common data format, and sends signal over high-speed IP to central station automation system. Secure transmission is achieved via constant connection monitoring with optional encryption and authentication.
Bosch Extends Its Conettix Family of Security- and Fire-Alarm Modules
New Receiver/Gateway module with enhanced communication features
o Built-in Internet or intranet communications over a LAN or WAN
o Two public switched telephone network lines
o Simultaneous LAN or WAN and PSTN communications.
o Supports 128-bit AES (Advanced Encryption Standard) Rijndael encryption
Bosch Security Systems is extending its Conettix family of security- and fire-alarm modules with a Communications Receiver/Gateway module offering enhanced communication features. The new D6100i module supports internet or intranet communications over a local-area network (LAN) or wide-area network (WAN), plus telephone line communications over the public switched telephone network (PSTN).
Bosch's Conettix family is a complete line of security communication modules for intrusion and fire systems. Designed to provide reliable data transmission over a wide range of transmission paths and formats, the modules transmit security and fire alarms to monitoring centers and users, as well as enabling data up/download for Bosch intrusion and fire panels. They also offer solutions for alarm verification and for two-way audio communication with a control panel.
Bosch's new addition to the Conettix family, the D6100i Communications Receiver/Gateway, offers a compact, economical solution well suited to small applications in, for example, gated communities and university campuses. A rising number of such communities are now switching to the use of high-speed Internet or broadband connections for correspondence, shopping and business-data transmission.
To address this evolving need, the D6100i upgrades a conventional alarm control panel to use high-speed Internet Protocol (IP) instead of a telephone connection for alarm notification. By using existing internet or intranet structures, the configuration avoids telephone lines and additional telephone service costs. Up to 3,200 accounts for LAN or WAN communications are supported. The system achieves a high level of security of transmission very cost-effectively by means of constant connection monitoring with optional encryption and authentication, including 128-bit AES Rijndael encryption. Other advantages include high transmission speed and low bandwidth requirement. As well as Internet connectivity, the D6100i also features two PSTN analog lines. When used in this configuration, the D6100i uses existing telephone lines.
A control panel's signal is transmitted over the LAN/WAN or a PSTN telephone line to the D6100i. The receiver translates the signal to a common data format and sends the signal through Ethernet LAN, WAN or RS-232 connection to a central station automation system which subsequently sends information to operator work stations.
