Fortinet FortiGate 3000F Next Business Day Priority RMA, 3-Year (FC-10-F3K0F-210-02-36)

Three years is a common planning horizon for enterprise data center infrastructure: long enough to align with capital budget cycles, short enough to preserve flexibility before the next hardware generation arrives. FC-10-F3K0F-210-02-36 covers that span with Next Calendar Day Priority RMA protection for the FortiGate 3000F, so a hardware failure does not turn into a prolonged outage for a perimeter device handling site-level connectivity.

What Next Calendar Day Delivery Priority RMA Provides

This subscription attaches to an existing FortiCare Premium or Elite contract and governs how fast Fortinet delivers replacement hardware after an exchange is approved. When a FortiGate 3000F fails and the exchange is confirmed through Fortinet’s support portal, a replacement unit is dispatched for next-calendar-day courier delivery. “Next calendar day” means the day immediately after confirmation, including weekends and public holidays. The table below compares hardware RMA handling across FortiCare service tiers.

Who Needs This Add-On

A three-year Priority RMA commitment fits organizations that align infrastructure contracts to three-year OpEx or CapEx cycles. Common scenarios include:

• Enterprises operating the FortiGate 3000F as a primary perimeter device where a hardware failure would interrupt external connectivity across the site
• Teams running high-availability FortiGate pairs who need failed nodes replaced by the next calendar day to restore full cluster redundancy
• Managed security providers holding customer SLAs with recovery time objectives that standard return-and-replace shipping cannot meet

FortiCare Essential does not qualify for Priority RMA add-ons. The base support contract must be at Premium or Elite level before this subscription can be registered to the device serial number.

Activation and Delivery

FC-10-F3K0F-210-02-36 is an electronic subscription. DataCenter360.ca delivers the activation code by email within 0 to 1 business days of payment. The code is registered to the device serial number in the Fortinet support portal, starting the three-year Priority RMA term from the activation date. No hardware ships when the subscription is ordered. When a 3000F hardware failure occurs and Fortinet confirms the exchange, Fortinet dispatches a replacement unit from its depot for next-calendar-day courier delivery.
