Fortinet FortiGate 70G-PoE Secure RMA Service, 5-Year (FC-10-G70GP-301-02-60)

In environments where a failed firewall cannot leave your facility through standard return channels — government installations, defense contractors, regulated financial data centers — Secure RMA is the service that closes the compliance gap. FC-10-G70GP-301-02-60 provides 5 years of Fortinet Secure RMA for your FortiGate 70G-PoE, with Fortinet managing the secure disposal of failed hardware under documented chain-of-custody protocols.

What This Service Covers

Secure RMA changes how hardware returns work. Under standard RMA, a failed unit ships back to Fortinet via normal logistics. Under Secure RMA, Fortinet follows a documented procedure for secure hardware disposal — meeting requirements for organizations that cannot allow potentially sensitive data stored in device memory to leave under standard return-freight conditions.

FC-10-G70GP-301-02-60 covers your FortiGate 70G-PoE for five years. FortiCare Premium or Elite is required as the base support contract. The 5-year term aligns with a full hardware lifecycle and eliminates annual renewal overhead.

Who Should Add This

Secure RMA is the appropriate service for organizations operating in regulated industries where hardware disposal must meet documented security standards — federal and provincial government agencies, defense contractors, financial institutions with strict data security policies, healthcare environments subject to PHI regulations, and any site that has written policies requiring secure destruction of network equipment at end of service. If your organization requires a paper trail for hardware disposal, this is the RMA tier to use.

Priority RMA vs. Your FortiCare Tier

Secure RMA is a standalone service tier, not a replacement for FortiCare. It requires FortiCare Premium or Elite as the base contract. If you also need Priority hardware delivery speed alongside secure disposal, discuss a combined service configuration with DataCenter360.ca — the two can be layered. The table above shows what each FortiCare tier provides in terms of standard hardware RMA and support depth, as context for where Secure RMA fits in the overall support structure.
