Product description

Distributed retail networks and field-service deployments that commit to a 3-year FortiGate 40F-3G4G lifecycle can save on both per-year support cost and renewal administration by selecting the FC-10-F40FG-314-02-36. This SKU locks in 3 years of FortiCare Essential coverage: firmware entitlement, web-based case submission, and a confirmed next-business-day hardware replacement path for the full term without needing a yearly renewal order.

What FortiCare Essential Covers

FortiCare Essential for the FortiGate 40F-3G4G includes the following over the 3-year term:

  • Web-based case submission and support access
  • Next-business-day response SLA for Priority 1 (service-down) incidents
  • Next-business-day hardware replacement on confirmed unit failures
  • Access to FortiOS firmware updates, security advisories, and the FortiCare portal

Where Essential sits relative to the other Fortinet support tiers:

Feature Essential Premium Elite
P1 (critical) response time Next business day 1 hour 15 minutes
24×7 telephone support
Next-business-day hardware RMA
Priority RMA add-on eligibility
Firmware updates, tools & portal
Extended LTS support & Elite monitoring portal

Who Buys This

The 3-year term is common among organizations that stage device refreshes on a fixed cycle and want support aligned to the hardware lease or depreciation window. Typical buyers include branch-office IT teams standardizing on 3-year renewals across a fleet of FortiGate 40F-3G4G units, managed service providers with multi-year service contracts, and procurement teams consolidating renewals to reduce annual PO volume.

Activation and Delivery

After order confirmation, the license key arrives electronically at the address on file, typically within 0-1 business days. Register the key in the Fortinet FortiCare portal against the target FG-40F-3G4G serial number. The 3-year entitlement activates immediately on registration. No hardware ships and no on-site steps are required.

FortiCare Essential vs. a Subscription Bundle

This contract covers hardware and software support only. FortiGuard security services including IPS, antivirus, web filtering, and DNS filtering require a separate subscription. For sites running active threat inspection, the 3-year UTP bundle (FC-10-F40FG-950-02-36) and Enterprise bundle (FC-10-F40FG-809-02-36) combine FortiCare Premium with the full FortiGuard stack at a single bundled price that is usually lower than purchasing both individually.

Buying from DataCenter360.ca

DataCenter360.ca is a Fortinet Select Partner stocking the full range of FortiGate 40F-3G4G support licenses. The FC-10-F40FG-314-02-36 is fulfilled through authorized Fortinet channels, delivered electronically within 0-1 business days, and registers cleanly in the FortiCare portal. For budget flexibility the 1-year (FC-10-F40FG-314-02-12) and 5-year (FC-10-F40FG-314-02-60) Essential terms are also available.

What does FC-10-F40FG-314-02-36 include?

This is a 3-Year FortiCare Essential contract for the FortiGate 40F-3G4G. Coverage includes web-based support, next-business-day P1 response, next-business-day hardware replacement on verified failures, and firmware and portal access for the full 3-year term. It does not include 24×7 telephone support or Priority RMA eligibility.

Why choose a 3-year term instead of renewing annually?

Multi-year terms reduce per-year support cost and eliminate the administrative overhead of a yearly renewal PO. For organizations with predictable deployment cycles aligned to 3-year hardware refresh windows, the 3-year SKU simplifies budget forecasting and ensures uninterrupted coverage without a lapse risk at each annual renewal date.

Does Essential include hardware replacement for the FG-40F-3G4G?

Yes. FortiCare Essential includes next-business-day hardware RMA on confirmed failures. The full FG-40F-3G4G unit ships as a replacement, including the integrated LTE modem. For faster exchange (same-day or 4-hour), FortiCare Premium plus the Priority RMA add-on is needed.

Is FortiGuard threat protection included?

No. FortiCare Essential is a support and RMA contract; it does not include FortiGuard services. IPS, antivirus, web filtering, DNS filtering, and similar services require a FortiGuard subscription. The 3-year UTP bundle FC-10-F40FG-950-02-36 and Enterprise bundle FC-10-F40FG-809-02-36 bundle support and FortiGuard services together in a single SKU.

How quickly is the license delivered after ordering?

Electronic delivery typically happens within 0-1 business days of order confirmation. The key is emailed to the address on file and activated by entering it in the FortiCare portal alongside the FG-40F-3G4G unit serial number. No physical hardware is shipped.
