Fortinet FortiGate 71G-PoE Next Calendar Day Priority RMA, 5-Year (FC-10-G71GP-210-02-60)

Multi-year support contracts work best when all coverage terms align. The FC-10-G71GP-210-02-60 covers the FortiGate 71G-PoE with five years of Next Calendar Day Delivery Priority RMA, keeping hardware replacement logistics synchronized with long-term FortiCare bundles and eliminating the overhead of annual RMA renewals.

What This Service Covers

FC-10-G71GP-210-02-60 activates a Next Calendar Day delivery SLA for hardware replacement on the FortiGate 71G-PoE. When Fortinet confirms a hardware failure, a replacement unit is dispatched and delivered to your registered site by the end of the next calendar day. The service requires an active FortiCare Premium or Elite base contract on the same serial number and does not include on-site installation.

Who Needs It

Five-year terms are standard in enterprise procurement and public sector contracts where renewals require separate approval workflows. This SKU suits organizations that prefer to lock in RMA coverage for the full hardware lifecycle. Branch networks running the FortiGate 71G-PoE at sites without on-site IT staff benefit from a guaranteed delivery SLA that lets off-site teams schedule the swap predictably, without waiting on an uncertain standard repair timeline.

Activation and Delivery

Purchase is electronic. The license is delivered to your DataCenter360.ca account and activates in the FortiCare portal within one business day. The entitlement attaches to the FortiGate 71G-PoE by serial number. RMA cases are opened through the FortiCare portal; next-day delivery is calculated from the calendar day Fortinet approves the case.
