The PMX-5CAN is a Rockford Fosgate marine and motorsports digital media receiver. It's designed for use in harsh outdoor environments, like boats and off-road vehicles. Here's a breakdown of its key features and what it's used for: Key Features: * Digital Media Receiver: It plays audio from various digital sources, but does not have a CD player. * AM/FM/WB Tuner: Includes a standard AM/FM radio tuner and Weather Band (WB) for weather alerts. * 2.7" Full Color Display: A bright, easy-to-read display designed for optimum viewing even in full sun. It's optically wet-bonded to prevent dust and moisture penetration. * CAN-bus Functionality: This is a significant feature. It allows the PMX-5CAN to connect to NMEA 2000 systems and compatible Multi-Function Displays (MFDs) like those from Raymarine, Garmin, and Simrad (often with an additional PMX-CAN adapter). This enables control of the receiver's functions directly from your boat's MFD. * Bluetooth Connectivity: For wireless audio streaming from Apple and Android smartphones, with A2DP and AVRCP support (allowing control of music from the receiver). * IPX6 Marine Grade: This rating means it's highly water-resistant and can withstand powerful jets of water, making it suitable for marine environments. * Multi-Zone/Multi-Source Control: Offers 2-zone/2-source control, allowing different audio sources and volumes in different areas of your vessel. * Internal Amplifier: Provides 4x50W @ 2ohm (or 4x25W RMS @ 4 ohms) of power to speakers. * Preamp Outputs: Includes RCA outputs for connecting external amplifiers for more power. * USB and AUX Inputs: For connecting other audio devices and for USB charging. * SiriusXM-Ready™: Compatible with SiriusXM satellite radio (requires a separate tuner and subscription). * Pandora® Internet Radio Compatible: Integrates with Pandora streaming service. * 7-Band Graphic EQ: Allows for fine-tuning of audio. * Independent Subwoofer Level Control: Dedicated control for subwoofer output. * Element Ready™: Designed to resist dust, UV, temperature, water, corrosion, and vibration. Uses: The PMX-5CAN is primarily used as an audio control center in marine vessels (boats, yachts) and powersports vehicles (ATVs, UTVs, motorcycles). Its robust, weather-resistant design and CAN-bus integration make it ideal for these applications, allowing for seamless control of your audio system and integration with other onboard electronics.
