Bell System Bellprox BPS-4 4-Way Surface Audio Door Entry System with Proximity Reader

Complete 4-Way Audio Door Entry Kit with MIFARE 13.56MHz Proximity Access & 10 User Fobs

The Bell System Bellprox BPS-4 4-Way Surface Audio Door Entry System with Proximity Reader combines a four-way audio telephone door-entry system with standalone proximity access control, providing a convenient entrance solution for four flats, offices, units or separate users sharing a common entrance.

Visitors can call the appropriate occupant through the telephone entry system, while residents, tenants, staff and other authorised users can gain direct keyless access using a compatible proximity key fob.

The entrance panel incorporates the compact Bell BPR proximity reader, based on MIFARE 13.56MHz tag technology and capable of identifying up to 1,000 fob users. This provides substantial capacity for authorised access while maintaining the simplicity of a standalone system with no requirement for central programming or reporting.

Validation and voiding of users' key fobs is achieved through Bell's shadow fob system with Bell Custom Security Coding. The BPR reader can provide outputs for both fail-secure and fail-safe locking devices and includes an input for an exit button. A single multicolour green, red and blue LED provides visual indication of operational status.

Supplied as a comprehensive four-way package, the BPS-4 includes four Bell System 801 telephones, a BPR door 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.

4-Way Audio Door Entry System

The BPS-4 is configured as a four-way audio door-entry system, making it particularly suitable for a common entrance serving four individual flats, offices or other internal users.

Visitors use the external entrance panel to call the required occupant. The appropriate resident or member of staff can then communicate with the visitor using their internal Bell 801 telephone before deciding whether to release the entrance door.

This provides individual visitor calling for four users while allowing them to share the same controlled building entrance.

Four Bell System 801 Telephones

The BPS-4 configuration includes four Bell System model 801 telephones, providing a separate internal communication position for each of the system's four users.

Each occupant can receive calls from visitors and communicate with them before granting access.

For a four-flat conversion, each flat can therefore have its own dedicated telephone while sharing the communal entrance panel and locking system.

Combined Audio Door Entry & Proximity Access

The Bellprox system combines two complementary methods of entrance control.

Visitors use the audio telephone entry system, enabling the appropriate occupant to communicate with them before granting entry.

Authorised residents, tenants and staff use proximity fobs, allowing them to gain direct access without making a telephone call or entering a numerical access code.

This provides convenient everyday access for regular users while retaining occupant-controlled entry for visitors.

Bell BPR Compact Proximity Reader

The BPS-4 incorporates the Bell BPR Compact Proximity Reader into the entrance panel.

The BPR is a complete panel-mounted proximity reader designed for standalone access-control applications.

Integrating the reader directly into the door-entry panel provides a neat entrance arrangement without requiring a completely separate external proximity reader.

MIFARE 13.56MHz Technology

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

An authorised user can present a compatible programmed fob to the reader to request access, providing a convenient contactless method of entry.

This makes the system particularly practical for regular users who would otherwise need to carry conventional entrance keys or remember a shared keypad code.

Supports Up to 1,000 Fob Users

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

The proximity access system is therefore not limited to the four principal occupants served by the audio door-entry system.

Additional fobs can be administered according to the requirements of the property, making the system suitable where several people require authorised access.

10 User Fobs Included

The BPS-4 includes a BP10 pack containing 10 user fobs.

This provides an initial set of proximity credentials for commissioning and everyday use without requiring the first pack of fobs to be purchased separately.

With capacity for up to 1,000 fob users, the system also provides considerable scope for additional authorised users where required.

Shadow Fob User Management

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

This provides a straightforward way of managing authorised users within the standalone proximity system.

It is particularly useful where uncomplicated local credential administration is required without introducing a centrally networked access-control platform.

Bell Custom Security Coding

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

Together with the shadow fob system, this provides Bell's dedicated method for validating and voiding authorised user fobs.

Fail-Secure & Fail-Safe Lock Support

The BPR proximity reader can provide outputs for both fail-secure and fail-safe lock devices.

This gives installers flexibility when selecting and configuring compatible locking equipment.

The appropriate lock arrangement should always be selected according to the door hardware, access requirements, fire strategy, means of escape and applicable regulations.

Exit Button Input

The BPR reader provides an input for an exit button.

A suitable request-to-exit button can therefore be incorporated into the system where required by the installation.

This provides additional flexibility when designing the entrance and exit-control arrangement.

Green, Red & Blue LED Status Indication

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

This provides clear visual feedback to users when interacting with the reader.

Visitor Access Through the Telephone Entry System

Visitors without an authorised proximity fob use the conventional audio door-entry system.

They call the appropriate occupant from the entrance panel, and the occupant can communicate with them before deciding whether access should be granted.

This ensures that adding proximity access for residents or employees does not compromise the controlled visitor-entry process.

Keyless Entry for Authorised Users

For residents, tenants, staff and other approved users, proximity access provides a convenient alternative to conventional keys or numerical keypad codes.

The authorised user simply presents their compatible programmed fob to the BPR reader to request entry.

This can make everyday building access faster and more convenient, particularly at frequently used communal entrances.

Standalone Proximity Access Control

The Bellprox BPR operates as a standalone proximity access system.

This makes the BPS-4 particularly appropriate where the convenience of individual electronic credentials is required without the complexity of a larger computer-controlled access platform.

No Central Programming Required

The Bellprox system is designed for applications where central programming is not required.

Local standalone administration keeps the access system comparatively straightforward to commission and manage.

No Central Reporting Required

The system is also suitable where central reporting is not required.

This makes it particularly useful for smaller residential and commercial installations where straightforward fob access is required without detailed networked reporting or central event management.

Bell System Model 61 Speech Unit

The kit includes a Bell System model 61 speech unit.

This forms part of the audio communication system between the external entrance panel and the four internal Bell 801 telephones.

PS4A 12V 4A DC Power Supply

A Bell System PS4A 12V 4A DC power supply is supplied with the BPS-4.

Bell 203 Surface Lock Release

The BPS-4 includes a Bell System model 203 surface lock release.

This provides the electrically operated door-release function for the supplied configuration, enabling the entrance to be unlocked through the appropriate door-entry or authorised proximity-access operation.

Ideal for Four-Flat Conversions

The BPS-4 is particularly suited to a converted property containing four individual flats sharing a common entrance.

Each flat can be equipped with its own Bell 801 telephone, allowing visitors to call the appropriate resident directly.

Residents can use programmed proximity fobs for everyday access, while visitors continue to use the telephone door-entry system.

Suitable for Small Apartment Buildings

The four-way arrangement also makes the BPS-4 suitable for appropriate small apartment buildings and other multi-occupancy residential properties.

The combination of individual visitor calling and shared proximity access provides a practical way of managing a communal entrance.

Suitable for Commercial Premises

The system can also be considered for commercial properties where one entrance serves four separate offices, departments or users.

Staff can use proximity fobs for regular access, while visitors can call the relevant internal position using the audio door-entry system.

The BPS-4 brings together the principal components required for a four-way Bellprox installation.
