1 Safety
ESD precaution
Please note that the B465 Universal Dual Path Communicator and optional plug-in cellular
modules come in a plastic bags, and are protected from ESD. All plug-in cellular communicator
components may potentially be exposed to finger touches - therefore extra attention must be
paid to ESD (electrostatic discharge) precaution. Make sure there is no static interference
when using the board. Appropriate ESD protections must be taken and wearing electrostatic
equipment is recommended, such as anti-static wrist strap.
ESD damage can range from subtle performance degradation to complete device failure.
Precision integrated circuits may be more susceptible to damage because very small
parametric changes could cause the device not to meet its published specifications.
!
Warning!
Failure to follow these instructions can result in a failure to initiate alarm conditions
Bosch Security Systems, Inc. is not responsible for improperly installed, tested, or maintained
devices. Follow these instructions to avoid personal injury and damage to the equipment.
Notice!
Inform the operator and the local authority having jurisdiction (AHJ) before installing the
module in an existing system.
Disconnect all power to the control panel before installing the module.

2 Introduction
The B465 Conettix Universal Dual Path Communicator (referred to as the B465) links the
control panel PSTN digital dialer and/or dry contact inputs from a control panel to an IP
connection (Ethernet or Cellular) to the D6600 or D6100i Communication Receiver/Gateway
through an internet connection.
There is no need to change the control panel’s reporting format for IP communications when
the B465 is installed. The B465 embeds the reports from the control panel into Conettix IP
reports. The embedded reports are in the same reporting format they were received in. The
B465 sends its internal status in Contact ID reports embedded Conettix IP reports.
When the control panel’s PSTN dialer sends a report, the B465 simulates a public switched
telephone network (PSTN) to receive the report. The B465 decodes the control panel PSTN
dialer report and then sends the decoded report to the Conettix D6600, D6100IPv6, or D6100i
Communication Gateway/Receiver (referred to as the central station receiver) using an IP
connection and the Bosch Conettix IP protocol. When the central station receiver receives the
report, it sends back an acknowledgement report to the B465 through the Conettix IP
protocol. The B465 sends the acknowledgement report to the connected control panel
through the simulated PSTN connection. This process maintains true end-to-end security.
B465 connections:
– Ethernet connects to the network
– 4 programmable inputs
– 3 programmable outputs (dry contact relays) (use to transmit B465 status to the control
panel, if required)
– control panel phone lines to B465 panel line 1 and panel line 2 terminals
– B44x Plug-in Cellular Communicator module (optional)
– B46 External Annunciator (optional)

3.1 B465 overview
The B465 allows any fire and intrusion control systems with PSTN dialers and/or dry contact
inputs to communicate with Bosch central station receivers over Ethernet or cellular networks
through IP. This allows customers using control panels developed before the introduction of
networking and cellular to eliminate costly phone lines and gain some of the modern
performance that IP networking enables.
The B465 is compatible with the following standard reporting formats:
– Modem II
– Modem IIe
– Modem IIIa2
– Ademco Contact ID (SIA DC-05) +10 digit account codes
– Pulse 3/1, 3/1 Checksum (2300 Hz ACK Tone)
– Pulse 3/1, 3/1 Checksum (1400 Hz ACK Tone)
– Pulse 4/2 (2300 Hz ACK Tone)

Conettix Universal Dual Path Communicator System overview | en 11
Bosch Security Systems, Inc. Installation and Operation Manual 2017.11 | 05 | F.01U.311.207
– Pulse 4/2 (1400 Hz ACK Tone)
– SIA (SIA8, SIA20)
The B465 links the control panel’s PSTN dialer to the internet and then to one of the Bosch
Conettix receivers. The B465:
– Connects with the control panel PSTN dialer (through the B465 panel line terminals) or
the control panel relay outputs connected to the B465 inputs.
– Embeds alarm reports in Conettix IP reports and sends them to a Conettix D6600, D6100i
or D6100IPv6 Communications Receiver/Gateway through an IP network.
– The Conettix receiver replies to the B465 with an acknowledgement report.
– The B465 sends an acknowledgement back to the control panel through the PSTN
interface which completes the signal transmission

transformers have a rating of 16.5 VAC, 40 VA.
Notice!
Commercial Fire requirement
Commercial Fire applications require that you install a D8004 Transformer Enclosure if you
are using either the D1640 or D1640-CA plug-in transformers.
3.2 PSTN reporting format compatibility
The B465 is suitable for use with of the following standard digital dialer formats:
– Modem II
– Modem IIe
– Modem IIIa2
– Ademco Contact ID (SIA DC-05) +10 digit account codes
– Pulse 3/1, 3/1 Checksum (2300 Hz ACK Tone)

– Pulse 4/2 (2300 Hz ACK Tone)
– Pulse 4/2 (1400 Hz ACK Tone)
– SIA (SIA8, SIA20)
3.2.1 Phone line voltage
The B465 simulates conventional phone lines to the control panel. The B465 supplies a
constant phone voltage of 28 VDC (control panel dialer on hook) to satisfy the control panel's
phone line monitor. The B465 phone voltage is 3 to 8 VDC when the control panel attempts to
communicate (off hook).

Conettix Universal Dual Path Communicator System overview | en 13
Bosch Security Systems, Inc. Installation and Operation Manual 2017.11 | 05 | F.01U.311.207
You can configure the B465 to remove the phone line voltage when there is a communication
failure between the B465 and the central station receiver. Removing the phone line voltage
causes a communication trouble (phone line trouble) to occur at the control panel.
3.3 IP communication
The B465 uses its built-in Ethernet connection, and a Conettix Plug-in cellular module (B44x)
to send reports to the central station receiver. The system routes event reports to the primary
and secondary destinations using Ethernet or cellular communication, depending on
configuration.
3.4 B46 overview (optional)
The B46 is an optional module that provides external B465 LED and sounder status when
installed in a supported enclosure. The module has 3 LEDs (System Trouble, Power, and
Battery) which illuminate through the B46 LED cover. The LED cover snaps into a knockout in
the enclosure door. The B46 fits in the B10/B10R, D8103 enclosure. Refer to the following

connect the system to earth ground before making other connections. The icon indicates the
earth ground terminal. Use a recommended earth ground reference, such as a grounding rod
or a metal cold water pipe. Make the connection using 14 AWG (1.8 mm) to 16 AWG (1.5 mm)
wire.
Notice!
Do not use telephone or electrical ground for the earth ground connection. Do not connect
other control panel terminals to earth ground.
!
Caution!
Avoid electrostatic discharge. Always touch the earth ground connection with the icon first,
before beginning work on the control panel.
Notice!
In ground fault enabled systems, you might cause a ground fault when connecting a computer
to the B465 for programming.
4.6 Install the cellular plug-in communicator module (optional)
For cellular communication, use one of the following:
– B440 Conettix Plug-in Cellular Communicator (3G Verizon, US only)
– B441 Conettix Plug-in Cellular Communicator (Verizon, US only)
– B442 Conettix Plug-in GPRS Cellular Communicator (outside the USA where approved)
– B443 Conettix Plug-in HSPA+ Cellular Communicator (where approved)
– B444 Conettix Plug-in LTE Cellular Communicator (Verizon, US only)
Install the plug-in module
1. Power down the B465.
2. Insert the plug-in module into plug-in stabilizing hole X, and then into the plug-in module
connector. Continue pressing the module into the connector until the retention clip
engages. Refer to callouts 1, 2, and 3 in B465 overview, page 10.

3. Route the antenna cable through a wire knockout in the top of the enclosure.
4. Connect the antenna to the threaded connector on the plug-in module.
5. Secure the antenna cable to the outside of the enclosure.
Notice!
Mount antenna on metal surface to improve weak signal
If the signal to the plug-in cellular module is weak, place the antenna on top of a metal
surface that has a radius of 10.16 cm (4 in.) or larger to improve performance.
