SES RPKPCATBLUE Blue Lighted Keypad with Cable and Gasket for CAT Panels
The SES RPKPCATBLUE is a blue lighted replacement keypad assembly for supported SES CAT telephone entry and access-control panels. The keypad provides the front-panel button interface used for visitor entry, PIN entry, directory functions, and on-site system interaction.
This service part includes the keypad, cable, and gasket. It is commonly used when the original CAT keypad is sun-faded, cracked, sticking, damaged by moisture, or no longer lighting or responding correctly. Because SES CAT panels include multiple display sizes and cabinet generations, the original keypad assembly should be compared before ordering.

Technician Note
A failed keypad gasket is a common reason keypad repairs do not last. If there is water staining, corrosion, or green residue on the keypad cable or connector, inspect the front door seal and cabinet before powering the system back up.
Before Ordering
- Match the SES part number and panel model before ordering.
- Compare the keypad layout, cable length, connector style, and gasket shape to the original assembly.
- Check the front door opening and weather seal for cracking, swelling, or water intrusion.
- Confirm whether the unit uses a numeric, alpha/numeric, blue lighted, or longer-cable keypad assembly.
- Power down the access-control unit before service and follow the SES service documentation.
Professional Advisory
If the keypad is water damaged, intermittently shorting, or part of a system with unsafe gate behavior, have a qualified gate or access-control technician inspect the SES unit before replacing parts. Do not bypass gate safety devices, access-control wiring, or monitored safety circuits to force operation.
Questions & Answers
What SES panels use RPKPCATBLUE?
SES RPKPCATBLUE is used on supported CAT series telephone entry panels that require the blue lighted keypad with cable and gasket.
Does RPKPCATBLUE fit TEC panels?
No. TEC panels use different keypad assemblies. Do not substitute this CAT blue lighted keypad for a TEC keypad without a matching SES parts reference.
What CAT models should be checked?
Check whether the installed panel is a CAT2, CAT4, CAT10, CAT8 style, or another CAT generation, then match the keypad cable and gasket.
Why is the cable length important?
SES keypad assemblies can look similar from the front while using different cable lengths or connector routing inside the cabinet.
When is this replacement usually ordered?
It is commonly ordered for worn, cracked, faded, water-damaged, or non-responsive CAT keypads when the rest of the telephone entry unit is still serviceable.
