Fortinet FortiGateRugged 60F Secure RMA Service, 5-Year (FC-10-0069F-301-02-60)

FortiGateRugged 60F units protecting utility substations, water treatment facilities, and energy distribution networks are typically part of a long-term infrastructure investment. Replacing them happens on a five-year capital cycle, not an annual refresh. FC-10-0069F-301-02-60 provides five years of Secure RMA coverage aligned to that cycle: any hardware failure during the period triggers a replacement unit and certified destruction of the returned hardware, with full compliance documentation provided by Fortinet.

What This Service Covers

Secure RMA handles replacement hardware plus certified secure destruction of the failed unit. For critical infrastructure environments where data handling controls apply to physical hardware, this service provides the documentation chain needed to satisfy audit requirements. The table below shows where this fits within the FortiCare support tier structure.

Who Needs This

Five-year Secure RMA is most relevant to operators running FortiGateRugged 60F devices in NERC CIP-regulated assets, ICS/SCADA environments with strict data destruction policies, government and defense field networks, and industrial perimeter deployments where hardware decommissioning is a controlled process. The 5-year term matches long-lived infrastructure contracts and eliminates renewal events that would otherwise trigger change management processes in locked-down environments.

Activation and Delivery

FC-10-0069F-301-02-60 is an electronic license delivered by email, usually same business day. Register it in the Fortinet Support Portal against the FortiGateRugged 60F serial number. Coverage begins at registration and runs for 60 months. When a hardware failure occurs during the term, open a Fortinet support case to initiate the Secure RMA event. Fortinet ships the replacement and provides a destruction certificate for the returned unit.

One Service vs the Full Bundle

Secure RMA is a purpose-built hardware disposal service. It does not include FortiGuard threat feeds, firmware updates, or telephone support. If the FortiGateRugged 60F requires full FortiCare support coverage alongside this, purchase FortiCare Premium or Essential separately. Aligning both to a 5-year term simplifies long-term lifecycle planning for the device.
