Rockford Fosgate RGB-Y6P 6-Pin Color Optix Y-Adapter

The Rockford Fosgate RGB-Y6P is a 6-pin Color Optix Y-adapter for expanding a compatible Rockford Fosgate RGB lighting and speaker installation. It provides a plug-and-play connection point for adding another Color Optix speaker on the same cable run. It is designed for marine, wake, and powersports systems where protected connections and clean wiring matter.

This adapter is intended for owners building a Color Optix system around a compatible PMX-RGB controller and matching Gen-2 Color Optix components. It helps reduce the need for cutting, splicing, or making improvised lighting connections. The RGB-Y6P is especially useful when adding speakers after the initial system installation.

Rather than adding audio power or changing the sound of a system, the RGB-Y6P supports the wiring path used by compatible speakers and their integrated Color Optix illumination. Its two-conductor speaker leads carry speaker positive and negative connections, while the low-voltage DC connection supports the grille LEDs. This keeps the lighting and speaker connection arrangement organized in a shared system run.

The adapter is compatible with Rockford Fosgate M1 and M2 Color Optix speakers and subwoofers, as well as supported M1/M2 moto-can and M2 wake-can applications. A 6-pin connection accepts the appropriate speaker connector, and an additional 6-pin female connection supports continued daisy-chaining. Confirm the applicable Rockford Fosgate compatibility chart before planning a mixed-component system.

Built for exposed marine and powersports environments, the RGB-Y6P is rated IPX6 when properly secured. It is part of Rockford Fosgate's True Marine Color Optix ecosystem, allowing compatible components to work with the Color Optix controller. Use it with the appropriate RGB-6, RGB-16, or RGB-25 extension cable when additional reach is needed.

Key Features

• 6-Pin Y-Adapter: Creates a branch point for compatible Color Optix speaker wiring.
• Gen-2 Color Optix Support: Designed for current Gen-2 Color Optix cable configurations.
• Daisy-Chain Output: Adds another compatible speaker on the same cable run.
• Low-Voltage LED Connection: Supports illumination behind compatible speaker grilles.
• Speaker Lead Integration: Includes two conductors for speaker positive and negative wiring.
• IPX6 Protection: Helps protect properly secured connections from water exposure.

Design & Installation

The RGB-Y6P uses a purpose-built Color Optix connector arrangement for marine and powersports wiring layouts. Its sealed connection design is intended to help maintain weather resistance when connectors are correctly joined and secured. Rockford Fosgate identifies the adapter as part of its True Marine Color Optix ecosystem.

Connect the adapter to a compatible PMX-RGB controller or RGB-6, RGB-16, or RGB-25 extension cable, then connect the compatible speaker's Deutsch-style connector. Use the additional 6-pin female connection to continue the run to another compatible speaker. Follow Rockford Fosgate's Gen-2 Color Optix wiring chart, observe total cable-length limits, and avoid exceeding the controller system capacity.
