The best-known case: from 98600 to 9695

A representative example of this change is the 4+N amplifier without voice synthesis , which previously appeared in the catalogues with the reference 98600 , and is now identified as 9695 .

This is not an isolated case: there are dozens of references that have changed over the last few Fermax catalogues.

Why did Fermax change the nomenclature?

• Unification of codes between ranges (City Classic, Citymax, VDS, MDS).
• Simplification in the catalog to avoid confusion between similar products.
• International standardization , since Fermax distributes in more than 80 countries.

This means that some installers are still working with older part numbers on their projects, but now have clear equivalencies so they can order the correct spare parts.
