Bell System Bellprox BPS-1 1-Way Surface Audio Door Entry System with Proximity Reader

Complete 1-Way Audio Door Entry Kit with MIFARE 13.56MHz Proximity Access & 10 User Fobs

The Bell System Bellprox BPS-1 1-Way Surface Audio System with Proximity Reader combines conventional audio telephone door entry with standalone proximity access control, providing a complete entrance solution for residents, tenants, staff and visitors.

Regular authorised users can gain convenient keyless entry using a proximity fob, while visitors remain controlled through the audio telephone entry system. This provides an effective combination of everyday access convenience and visitor-controlled entry without requiring a centrally managed access-control system.

At the heart of the system is the Bell BPR Compact Proximity Reader, a panel-mounted reader using MIFARE 13.56MHz tag technology and capable of supporting up to 1,000 fob users. User fobs are validated and voided using Bell's shadow fob system with Bell Custom Security Coding, providing a straightforward method of administering authorised users.

The reader supports both fail-secure and fail-safe locking devices and also provides an input for an exit button, increasing installation flexibility. A single multicolour green, red and blue LED provides visual indication of the reader's operational status.

Supplied as a comprehensive 1-way kit, the BPS-1 includes a Bell 801 telephone, BPR entrance panel with compact proximity reader, model 61 speech unit, PS4A 12V 4A DC power supply, model 203 surface lock release and BP10 pack containing 10 user fobs.

Combined Audio Door Entry & Proximity Access

The Bellprox BPS-1 combines two complementary entrance-control technologies within one system.

Visitors use the telephone door-entry system, allowing the occupant to communicate with callers before deciding whether to grant access.

Residents, tenants, staff and other authorised users use proximity fobs, allowing them to enter directly without needing to call the occupant or enter a numerical access code.

This makes the BPS-1 particularly useful where regular users require convenient access while visitors still need to be screened through a conventional door-entry system.

1-Way Audio Door Entry

The BPS-1 is configured as a 1-way system, making it suitable for an entrance serving a single internal telephone position.

The supplied Bell System model 801 telephone provides the internal communication point, allowing the occupant to communicate with a visitor at the entrance.

Once the visitor has been identified, access can be granted through the electric door-release system.

Bell BPR Compact Proximity Reader

The BPS-1 incorporates Bell's BPR Compact Proximity Reader into the entrance panel.

This is a complete panel-mount proximity reader designed to provide straightforward standalone access control without requiring a separate central controller.

Its compact format allows proximity access to be integrated neatly into the door-entry panel, producing a professional entrance installation.

MIFARE 13.56MHz Technology

The BPR reader is based on MIFARE 13.56MHz tag technology.

Authorised users can present a compatible programmed fob to the reader to request access, providing a convenient alternative to physical keys or numerical keypad codes.

This contactless method is particularly useful for entrances used frequently by residents, employees or tenants.

Supports Up to 1,000 Fob Users

The Bellprox BPR can identify up to 1,000 fob users.

This substantial capacity provides considerable flexibility, even when the system is initially installed with only a small number of authorised users.

It also means the proximity system can accommodate changing access requirements without immediately requiring replacement with a larger access-control platform.

10 User Fobs Included

The BPS-1 kit includes a BP10 pack containing 10 user fobs.

This means the system can be commissioned with a useful number of authorised users immediately, without requiring the initial set of fobs to be purchased separately.

Additional compatible fobs can be managed within the reader's maximum user capacity as required.

Shadow Fob User Management

Validation and voiding of users' key fobs is achieved through Bell's shadow fob system.

This provides a practical way of managing authorised credentials within the standalone access-control system.

The arrangement is particularly useful when a user's access needs to be changed or removed without requiring a centrally networked management platform.

Bell Custom Security Coding

The Bellprox system incorporates Bell Custom Security Coding as part of its fob-management arrangement.

This forms part of the system used for validating and voiding authorised proximity credentials and is designed specifically around the Bellprox access-control platform.

Fail-Secure & Fail-Safe Lock Compatibility

The BPR proximity reader can provide output for both fail-secure and fail-safe locking devices.

This gives installers greater flexibility when selecting the appropriate locking arrangement for a particular entrance.

A fail-secure or fail-safe configuration should always be selected according to the door hardware, access requirements, fire strategy and applicable regulations.

Exit Button Input

The reader also provides an input for an exit button.

Where required by the installation, an appropriate request-to-exit button can therefore be incorporated into the access-control arrangement.

This makes the BPR suitable for applications where authorised entry is controlled electronically but a dedicated internal exit control is also required.

Multicolour LED Status Indication

A single LED provides green, red and blue visual indication of the reader's operational status.

This gives users clear visual feedback when interacting with the proximity system and helps make everyday operation straightforward.

Visitor Access Through the Telephone Entry System

Visitors who do not have an authorised fob use the conventional telephone entry system.

The visitor calls the occupant, who can communicate with them using the internal telephone before deciding whether to release the entrance door.

This ensures that the convenience of proximity access for regular users does not remove the ability to control unknown visitor entry.

Bell System 801 Telephone

The kit includes a Bell System model 801 telephone for the internal user position.

This provides the audio interface between the occupant and visitors at the entrance panel.

The traditional handset arrangement offers straightforward operation and enables the occupant to communicate with callers before granting access.

Bell Model 61 Speech Unit

A Bell System model 61 speech unit is included as part of the audio door-entry system.

The speech unit provides the external audio functionality required for communication between the entrance panel and internal telephone.

PS4A 12V 4A DC Power Supply

The BPS-1 includes a Bell System PS4A 12V 4A DC power supply.

This provides the low-voltage power required by the compatible components within the system and eliminates the need to specify the principal system power supply separately.

Bell 203 Surface Lock Release

A Bell System model 203 surface lock release is supplied with the BPS-1 kit.

This electrically operated release provides the door-unlocking function for the supplied configuration.

The lock can be released through the appropriate visitor-entry operation or when a valid authorised proximity fob is presented.

Standalone Access Control

The Bellprox BPR is designed as a standalone proximity access system.

This makes it particularly appropriate where straightforward local user management is required without the additional complexity of a central access-control computer or network.

It provides the key functionality required for fob-controlled access while remaining comparatively simple to install, programme and administer.

No Central Programming Required

The Bellprox system is particularly suited to installations where central programming is not required.

User management is handled locally through the standalone system, helping reduce the infrastructure and complexity associated with larger centrally administered access-control solutions.

No Central Reporting Required

The BPS-1 is also intended for applications where central access reporting is not required.

For residential properties, smaller businesses and other straightforward applications, this can provide an effective balance between access control and ease of administration.

Where detailed event reporting or centralised multi-door management is required, a more advanced access-control platform may be appropriate.

Ideal for Residents & Tenants

Proximity fob access is particularly convenient for residential users.

Residents and tenants can simply present their authorised fob at the entrance rather than entering a code or calling the property.

Visitors continue to use the telephone entry system, maintaining a clear distinction between authorised everyday access and visitor-controlled entry.

Suitable for Staff Access

The BPS-1 can also provide a convenient staff-entry solution.

Employees can be issued with individual proximity fobs, allowing them to gain access through the entrance without sharing a numerical keypad code.

With support for up to 1,000 fob users, the BPR reader provides significant capacity for compatible commercial applications.

Complete 1-Way Kit in a Box

The BPS-1 brings together the principal components required for a one-way Bellprox installation.
