Authorized Partner for United States (US)Five years of guaranteed fast hardware replacement without the cost of onsite labor: that is the core value of the FortiGate 81F 4-Hour Hardware Delivery Priority RMA, 5-Year (FC-10-0081F-211-02-60). If your team has qualified staff on-site who can swap a 1U appliance, this subscription delivers the replacement hardware in four hours and your engineers handle the rest.
FC-10-0081F-211-02-60 is the -211- Priority RMA add-on for the FortiGate 81F. It commits to delivering replacement hardware within four hours of a verified hardware failure and an approved RMA request. No onsite engineer is included; installation is handled by the customer’s local staff.
The 5-year term runs from activation, covering the full typical operational lifetime of the FortiGate 81F without annual renewals. FortiCare Premium or Elite must be active on the same serial number throughout. Physical damage and out-of-warranty events are excluded.
Primary use cases: organizations with trained network staff at the site, data centers and server rooms where 4-hour hardware replacement meets uptime SLAs, and environments that want the speed of Priority RMA without the cost of dispatching an engineer for a straightforward swap. The -211- tier matches IT teams that have experience replacing rackmount hardware and simply need the parts to arrive fast.
For sites without qualified local staff, the -212- tier (FC-10-0081F-212-02-60) adds engineer dispatch to the same delivery window. If engineer availability is the constraint, not parts speed, -212- is the right choice.
FC-10-0081F-211-02-60 is an electronic subscription delivered worldwide and registered at support.fortinet.com against the FortiGate 81F serial number. The entitlement activates in the FortiCare portal after registration. Confirm that the FortiGate 81F’s physical location falls within Fortinet’s 4-hour hardware depot service area before activating this subscription.

DataCenter360.ca is an authorized Fortinet Select Partner offering electronic delivery of Fortinet subscriptions globally. The 5-Year -211- SKU for the FortiGate 81F is a single purchase covering the device’s full operational life. We can combine it with a FortiCare Premium order for immediate electronic delivery on the same day.
No. The -211- service targets delivery of the replacement hardware unit within 4 hours of a verified RMA request. There is no engineer dispatch under this tier. Your local IT staff performs the physical installation. If you need an engineer dispatched, the -212- tier (FC-10-0081F-212-02-60) includes both hardware delivery and onsite engineer for the same 4-hour target.
The 5-year subscription reduces administrative overhead, typically offers a better per-year price than annual renewals, and eliminates the risk of an accidental lapse. If the FortiGate 81F goes into production for five or more years, the 5-year term (FC-10-0081F-211-02-60) is the most efficient procurement path. Shorter terms are available: 1-year (FC-10-0081F-211-02-12) or 3-year (FC-10-0081F-211-02-36).
FortiCare Premium includes Advanced Replacement as the base RMA tier: Fortinet ships the replacement before you return the failed unit, but the delivery target is next business day rather than 4 hours. The -211- add-on upgrades that delivery commitment to a 4-hour target for environments where next-business-day is too slow.
Yes. The -211- service upgrades hardware delivery speed; the -301- Secure RMA controls drive retention. Both add-ons can be registered on the same FortiGate 81F under FortiCare Premium or Elite. If your site requires fast replacement and media retention, hold both subscriptions with matching term lengths where possible.
The license is delivered electronically worldwide by DataCenter360.ca. The 4-hour hardware delivery SLA depends on Fortinet’s regional parts depot coverage at the device’s physical location. Confirm geographic availability with Fortinet for your specific country and city before relying on the 4-hour commitment.
