Rockford Fosgate RGB-YC Y-Adapter Color Optix Cable for PMX-RGB
Rockford Fosgate RGB-YC Color Optix Y-Adapter Cable for PMX-RGB Controller (Gen-1)
A plug-and-play Y-adapter cable for the Rockford Fosgate PMX-RGB Color Optix controller, splitting one RGB controller output into two lines to support expanded Color Optix speaker and subwoofer installations. IPX7 rated Deutsch/Amphenol connectors. Backed by a 2 year warranty.
Product Overview
The Rockford Fosgate RGB-YC is a plug-and-play Y-adapter cable designed to simplify and expand Color Optix RGB LED speaker installations using the PMX-RGB controller. By splitting one RGB controller output into two separate lines, the RGB-YC allows more Color Optix speakers and subwoofers to be connected to a single PMX-RGB controller output, making it the essential accessory for larger marine audio builds within the Rockford Fosgate True Marine Ecosystem.
The PMX-RGB controller supports up to 8 Color Optix speakers and/or subwoofers in total. The RGB-YC uses Element Ready Deutsch/Amphenol connectors rated to IPX7, providing protection against heavy splashing and rain at the connection points. No tools or additional wiring are required for installation.
Features & Benefits
Splits One RGB Output to Two Lines: The RGB-YC Y-adapter divides a single PMX-RGB controller output into two separate RGB connections, allowing more Color Optix speakers and subwoofers to be connected to the same controller output for a more complete and evenly distributed lighting installation.
Plug-and-Play - No Wiring Required: The RGB-YC uses the same Deutsch/Amphenol plug-and-play connector system as all Rockford Fosgate Color Optix components, making installation as simple as plugging in a cable with no soldering, crimping, or additional wiring needed.
IPX7 Rated Deutsch/Amphenol Connectors: The Element Ready Deutsch/Amphenol connectors are rated to IPX7, providing protection against heavy splashing and rain at the connection points throughout the service life of the cable in marine and outdoor environments.
Supports Up to 8 Color Optix Speakers and/or Subwoofers Per Controller: The PMX-RGB controller supports a total of up to 8 Color Optix speakers and/or subwoofers. The RGB-YC enables efficient distribution of the controller's output channels to reach this maximum across a broader installation area.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does the RGB-YC Y-adapter do?
The RGB-YC splits a single RGB output from the PMX-RGB Color Optix controller into two separate RGB lines. This allows the controller's output to be distributed to more Color Optix speakers or subwoofers across a wider installation without the need for additional controllers or complex wiring.
How many Color Optix devices can be connected to one PMX-RGB controller?
The PMX-RGB controller supports up to 8 Color Optix speakers and/or subwoofers in total. The RGB-YC Y-adapter is used to help distribute that capacity efficiently across multiple connection points in the installation.
Is the RGB-YC compatible with all Color Optix speakers and subwoofers?
Yes. The RGB-YC uses the same Deutsch/Amphenol plug-and-play connector system used across all Rockford Fosgate M1 and M2 series Color Optix speakers and subwoofers. It is compatible with all products in the Color Optix ecosystem that use this connector type.
Is the RGB-YC waterproof?
The Deutsch/Amphenol connectors on the RGB-YC are rated to IPX7, providing protection against heavy splashing and rain at the connection points. This makes it suitable for marine and outdoor environments where moisture exposure is expected.
Does the RGB-YC work without the PMX-RGB controller?
No. The RGB-YC is an accessory cable for the PMX-RGB Color Optix controller and does not function independently.
