Fortinet FortiGate 80F-DSL Secure RMA, 1-Year (FC-10-F80FD-301-02-12)

Not every IT team is ready to commit to a multi-year support contract on a single appliance. The 1-Year Secure RMA for the FortiGate 80F-DSL (FC-10-F80FD-301-02-12) gives compliance-sensitive organizations the controlled hardware replacement process they need on an annual subscription basis, with the option to renew or expand to a longer term when the time comes.

What the 1-Year Secure RMA Covers

FC-10-F80FD-301-02-12 provides Secure RMA service for the FortiGate 80F-DSL for 12 months. If the device fails during the coverage window, Fortinet handles the hardware replacement using secure procedures designed for environments where standard open-return processes would create a chain-of-custody concern.

FortiCare Support Tiers and Secure RMA

Secure RMA applies across FortiCare-covered hardware. The table below shows how support and RMA handling differ by tier.

Who Benefits from the 1-Year Term

Annual licensing aligns with fiscal-year IT budgets, which makes it practical for public-sector organizations, non-profits, or any team that requires annual contract reviews. A 1-year term is also useful when the FortiGate 80F-DSL is nearing the end of a hardware refresh cycle and you want coverage through the expected replacement date without over-committing.

Delivery and Activation

Purchase FC-10-F80FD-301-02-12 from DataCenter360.ca and receive your activation code by email within 0 to 1 business day. Register against the FortiGate 80F-DSL serial number in the Fortinet Support Portal to start your 12-month coverage window.

Weighing Secure RMA Against Other Options

If the FortiGate 80F-DSL also needs FortiGuard security subscriptions, the Priority RMA add-on or Secure RMA is a separate purchase from security subscriptions. Teams that are building out full support coverage from scratch may find it worth comparing the total cost of individual service SKUs versus a subscription bundle that includes FortiCare Premium. For organizations that already have security subscriptions in place and specifically need secure hardware handling, this 1-year contract is a direct fit.
