Bosch DS1101i Break Glass Sensor
The Bosch DS1101i Break Glass Sensor is a wired acoustic glass break detector designed to help protect windows, glass doors and glazed entry points as part of a compatible security alarm system. Using Bosch microprocessor-based Sound Analysis Technology (SAT), automatic environmental test circuitry and sound check functionality, the DS1101i provides reliable detection for areas where glass break protection is required.
This Bosch security sensor is ideal for homes, offices, retail stores, showrooms and commercial premises with vulnerable glass areas. It can be used alongside PIR motion detectors, reed switches, vibration sensors and other alarm accessories to create a more complete perimeter and internal security solution.

Microprocessor-Based Sound Analysis
The Bosch DS1101i uses microprocessor-based Sound Analysis Technology to help identify the specific acoustic pattern associated with breaking glass. This helps the sensor distinguish genuine glass break events from other common background sounds when installed and configured correctly.
Automatic Environmental Test Circuitry
The automatic environmental test circuitry helps support reliable performance by assisting with setup and site testing. This is useful for professional installers when checking the detector’s suitability for the room, glass area and surrounding acoustic environment.
Compact Design with Tamper Protection
The DS1101i features a compact round design with a high-impact ABS plastic enclosure. It also includes a normally-closed cover-activated tamper switch with separate terminals, helping protect the device from unauthorised opening or interference.
