01Overview

What the CP155B is

The Bosch CP155B is the external smart-prox keypad for the Bosch Solution 6000. It brings alarm control and door access outside the building, so you can arm and disarm at the front door or gate and present a card to enter, with a housing built to handle the weather.

It is rated IP65 and made from high-strength, UV-resistant plastic for external installation, and it has both front and rear tamper protection. The built-in smart-prox reader works with Bosch PR301, PR350, PR365 and PR370 cards and tokens, the numeric keys are backlit for night use, and red, green and blue indicators show area and door-lock status.

The CP155B connects to the panel over an encrypted RS485 LAN, with anti-replay and anti-substitution protection, and occupies one standard keypad position. It runs on 10VDC at 100mA max, provides both alarm and access-control functions on the Solution 6000, and is fitted by a licensed installer.

04Why choose this

Built for the way you actually use the CP155B

Built for outside

An IP65 weather rating and UV-resistant housing let you put a keypad at the front door, gate or carport.

Card or PIN

The built-in smart-prox reader works with Bosch PR-series cards and tokens, so people can tap to disarm or enter rather than key a PIN.

Alarm and access in one

It arms and disarms the Solution 6000 and can control a door, useful for shared entries and small sites.

Secure and tamper-protected

Encrypted RS485 with anti-replay protection plus front and rear tamper guards against interference.

05Where it fits

Right at home in these scenarios

Front-door or gate control

Arm, disarm and enter from outside, with a housing rated for sun and rain.

Card-based entry

Staff or family tap a PR-series card or token to disarm and unlock instead of sharing a PIN.

Carports and side gates

A weather-rated keypad suits exposed entries where an indoor keypad would not survive.

Small business access

Combine alarm control with a single access-controlled door at the entrance.
