United States (US) Authorized DistributorAnnual FortiCare contracts suit deployments where the budget cycles year-to-year, where the device was recently acquired and the renewal term is still being decided, or where the hardware bundle’s included FortiCare has expired and you need to reinstate coverage quickly. The FC-10-F80FP-247-02-12 provides 12 months of FortiCare Premium for the FortiGate 80F-POE: 1-hour critical-issue response, advanced hardware replacement, and direct telephone access to Fortinet TAC.
FortiCare Premium is Fortinet’s mid-tier support contract. For the FortiGate 80F-POE, it provides: a 1-hour critical-issue response SLA from Fortinet TAC, direct telephone access to a support engineer, advanced hardware replacement (a replacement unit ships before the failed appliance is returned), Priority RMA add-on eligibility, access to all firmware and software releases, and the Fortinet online support portal and asset management tools.
This subscription is the Premium tier. The table below shows how it compares to Essential and Elite so you can confirm the coverage fits, or step up if needed.
| Feature | Essential | Premium | Elite |
|---|---|---|---|
| Critical-issue response | Next business day | 1 hour | 15 minutes |
| Telephone support | — | ✓ | ✓ |
| Hardware RMA | Return & replace | Advanced replacement | Advanced replacement |
| Priority RMA add-on eligible | — | ✓ | ✓ |
| Firmware updates, online tools & asset portal | ✓ | ✓ | ✓ |
| Extended LTS support & Elite monitoring portal | — | — | ✓ |
Teams with annual IT budgets that renew line by line each fiscal year. Also common for sites that received the firewall through a hardware bundle and whose initial FortiCare is expiring — rather than committing to a 3 or 5-year contract upfront, the 1-year term lets you reassess coverage needs at each renewal. MSPs managing client devices on a year-to-year service contract also purchase this term to match their billing cycles.
The contract is electronic and delivered by email within 0 to 1 business days after payment, to any country. You register the code in the Fortinet support portal under the serial number of your FortiGate 80F-POE. If FortiCare coverage on the device has already lapsed, the new contract activates from the registration date. If an active contract is still running, Fortinet stacks the new term to start at the end of the existing one.
FortiCare Premium is a support-only contract — it covers TAC response, hardware replacement, and firmware access. If the 80F-POE also needs FortiGuard threat services, the FG-80F-POE-BDL-950 (UTP) and FG-80F-POE-BDL-809 (Enterprise) hardware bundles include hardware, FortiCare, and all FortiGuard subscriptions in one SKU. The annual effective cost is often lower when bundled. For a device already in service, this standalone 1-year Premium keeps support current while you assess the right long-term path.
At DataCenter360.ca, FortiCare activations are processed the same day on most orders and delivered by email within one business day. If you later decide on a longer commitment, the 3-year (FC-10-F80FP-247-02-36) and 5-year (FC-10-F80FP-247-02-60) options have a lower effective annual rate — we stock all three terms for the 80F-POE.
No. FortiCare Premium can be purchased at any time and applied to a registered device. If coverage has lapsed, the new contract activates from the date you register it. If coverage is still active, Fortinet adds the new term to the end of the existing contract.
Elite upgrades the critical-issue response from 1 hour (Premium) to 15 minutes, and adds extended LTS support and the Elite monitoring portal. For most branch deployments, 1-hour response is sufficient — Elite is typically chosen for data centre or mission-critical edge devices where even 1-hour downtime has material business impact.
Under return-and-replace (Essential tier), you ship the failed unit to Fortinet first, and a replacement is sent after it is received and assessed. Under advanced replacement (Premium and Elite), Fortinet ships the replacement before you return the faulty unit, significantly reducing how long the site runs without the firewall.
Yes. You can purchase a new 1-year contract before the current one expires, and Fortinet stacks it to activate at the end of the existing term. There is no limit to how many times you can renew annually, though the 3-year and 5-year terms save both money and renewal overhead over time.
Yes. FortiCare contracts are electronic and carry no geographic restriction on where the device is installed or where the contract is registered. DataCenter360.ca ships the registration code by email and the activation is completed online through the Fortinet support portal.
