When your data center rack runs on -48V DC infrastructure, you need a firewall purpose-built for that environment. The FortiGate 1100E-DC ships with a native DC power input and dual hot-swappable DC power supplies, eliminating the AC-to-DC conversion step and simplifying power redundancy in carrier and colocation deployments. This bundle pairs that hardware with 3 years of FortiGuard Enterprise Protection — the highest FortiGuard service tier — so the appliance is fully licensed from day one.
The FG-1100E-DC-BDL-809-36 combines three things into a single purchase:
Bundling avoids a separate license purchase, locks in a single renewal date, and typically carries better unit economics than buying hardware and services separately.

Enterprise (code 809) is the top FortiGuard tier. It includes every service in the ATP and UTP tiers, then adds SD-WAN cloud-assisted monitoring, FortiAnalyzer Cloud log retention, and NOC/SOC managed services. The table below shows what each tier brings:
| Capability | ATP | UTP | Enterprise |
|---|---|---|---|
| FortiCare Premium Support | ✓ | ✓ | ✓ |
| IPS & Application Control | ✓ | ✓ | ✓ |
| Advanced Malware Protection (AMP) | ✓ | ✓ | ✓ |
| URL / DNS / Video Filtering | — | ✓ | ✓ |
| Anti-spam | — | ✓ | ✓ |
| Security Rating Service | — | ✓ | ✓ |
| Industrial & OT Security | — | ✓ | ✓ |

The FG-1100E-DC is suited to three kinds of buyers:
At 12.5 Gbps IPS and 9.8 Gbps NGFW, this appliance handles multi-gigabit internet edges, core segmentation, and SSL inspection simultaneously without a throughput ceiling under realistic enterprise traffic mixes.
If the 3-year term does not match your procurement cycle, the same Enterprise bundle is available for 1 year (FG-1100E-DC-BDL-809-12) and 5 years (FG-1100E-DC-BDL-809-60). The UTP tier (FG-1100E-DC-BDL-950-36) covers the same hardware with a narrower service set at a lower subscription cost — suitable when SD-WAN cloud monitoring and FortiAnalyzer Cloud are not required. The FG-1100E (AC power) carries identical performance specs and is the right choice when AC infrastructure is in place.
DataCenter360.ca is an authorized Fortinet Select Partner serving enterprise, government, and telecom buyers across Canada. Every FortiGate appliance ships brand new in factory-sealed Fortinet packaging with direct access to Fortinet TAC throughout the FortiCare term. DC-powered appliances ship from our warehouse in 0 to 1 business days with free freight — no broker delays, no gray-market risk. Questions about DC power wiring, licensing activation, or HA deployment? Our pre-sales team works through the details before you order.
The Enterprise tier (code 809) bundles FortiCare Premium Support with the full FortiGuard service stack: IPS, Application Control, Advanced Malware Protection, URL/DNS/Video Filtering, Anti-spam, Security Rating, Industrial and OT Security, FortiConverter migration service, SD-WAN cloud-assisted monitoring, FortiAnalyzer Cloud log retention, and managed NOC/SOC services. It is Fortinet’s highest subscription tier and covers every security service in the ATP and UTP tiers plus the analytics and managed service add-ons.
Yes. DataCenter360.ca stocks and ships the FG-1100E-DC within Canada. Hardware ships free in 0 to 1 business days from our Canadian warehouse. Export outside Canada is not available for this hardware SKU — DataCenter360.ca is authorized to sell Fortinet hardware only within Canada. Fortinet licensing (renewal or standalone subscriptions) can be delivered electronically worldwide.
The FortiCare and FortiGuard term starts on the date you activate the license contract key with Fortinet. The key ships with the hardware (or separately by email for re-orders) and is registered through the Fortinet Support Portal. If you already have an existing contract on the same unit, the new term stacks — it does not begin until the prior contract expires. DataCenter360.ca recommends activating within 30 days of receipt to avoid gaps in coverage.
The FG-1100E-DC and FG-1100E have identical performance specs, port counts, and FortiOS capabilities. The sole hardware difference is the power supply: the FG-1100E-DC uses -48V DC input (designed for telco DC power plants and carrier-grade racks), while the FG-1100E uses standard 100-240V AC. Choose DC if your facility is provisioned with -48V DC power rails; choose AC otherwise. Both support dual hot-swappable redundant PSUs.
Yes. When the bundle term expires, you renew with standalone FortiCare and FortiGuard service SKUs for the FG-1100E-DC (FC-10-F11DE-xxx). You can renew individual services or purchase a new bundle-equivalent set. DataCenter360.ca can quote renewal SKUs at any point during the term. Renewing before expiry prevents a lapse in FortiGuard signature updates and TAC access.
