Fortinet FortiGate 900G FortiCare Premium Support, 5-Year (FC-10-FG9H0-247-02-60)

A five-year FortiCare Premium subscription on the FortiGate 900G makes sense when the platform has been committed as the core of a data-centre perimeter or large-campus network for the long term. Locking in Premium support for five years eliminates renewal overhead, protects against future price increases, and guarantees that 24×7 TAC access and one-hour Sev-1 response will be in place for the full operational window.

What This License Covers

FortiCare Premium is the middle tier of Fortinet’s three-level support structure. For a platform pushing 26 Gbps IPS throughput like the FortiGate 900G, it delivers the response times and logistics that production environments require. The comparison below shows where Premium sits relative to Essential and Elite.

Who Needs This Subscription

The FortiGate 900G targets large enterprise campuses, regional data centres, and high-throughput environments where firewall availability is tied directly to business operations. Organizations in verticals with strict uptime or compliance obligations (financial institutions, healthcare networks, government facilities) typically treat Premium-level SLAs as a baseline for Tier-1 network appliances. A five-year term is well suited to capital-expenditure environments where hardware acquisition and support budgets are planned together.

Activation and Delivery

DataCenter360.ca delivers the license registration token electronically after order confirmation. Registration takes place in the Fortinet Support Portal (support.fortinet.com) using the appliance’s serial number. Coverage begins on the registration date and runs for five full years. Because this is an electronic entitlement, it can be ordered and activated without waiting for courier delivery, which is useful for sites that need to close a support gap quickly.

One Service vs. the Full Bundle

FortiCare Premium covers TAC support and hardware logistics only. FortiGuard threat-intelligence services (IPS, application control, web filtering, antivirus updates) are separate. If your FortiGate 900G deployment requires both, review the UTP or Enterprise bundle subscriptions for this model, which include FortiCare Premium alongside FortiGuard feeds in a single SKU. Buying the bundle is almost always more cost-effective than adding each service individually over a five-year term.
