Product description

Already holding FortiCare Premium on a FortiWiFi 40F and want the Elite tier? The FC-10-W040F-204-02-12 is the 1-year upgrade license that layers Elite benefits onto your existing Premium entitlement, activating the FortiCare Elite monitoring portal and extended LTS firmware access without replacing your base contract or restarting your coverage term.

What the Elite Upgrade Adds

This SKU (FC-10-W040F-204-02-12) is a FortiCare Premium to Elite upgrade. Applied to an active Premium contract on your FortiWiFi 40F, it unlocks the FortiCare Elite tier for the 1-year term. The table below shows how the three FortiCare tiers compare:

Feature Essential Premium Elite
Critical-issue response time Next business day 1 hour 15 minutes
24/7 telephone support
Hardware advance replacement
Priority RMA eligibility
Firmware updates & portal access
Extended LTS support & Elite monitoring portal

Who Buys This

FortiWiFi 40F operators with an active FortiCare Premium entitlement who need Elite features before their next full renewal. This is the right pick for compliance-driven environments requiring extended LTS firmware access, for teams running FortiOS on a strict change-management schedule, or for sites where faster critical-issue response times (15 minutes vs. 1 hour under Premium) are required by SLA.

This upgrade is not applicable to devices on FortiCare Essential or without any FortiCare in place.

Activation and Delivery

FC-10-W040F-204-02-12 is an electronic license. Once your order is confirmed, the Fortinet contract key is delivered by email within 0-1 business days. To activate, log in to the Fortinet Support Portal at support.fortinet.com, navigate to Asset Management, and apply the contract key to your FortiWiFi 40F serial number. No hardware is shipped; the activation is complete as soon as the key is registered.

This Upgrade vs. a Full FortiGuard Subscription Bundle

FortiCare Elite covers hardware support, firmware access, and technical care. It does not include FortiGuard threat feeds such as IPS, antivirus, web filtering, or application control. If your FortiWiFi 40F needs both hardware care and threat intelligence, a UTP or Enterprise subscription bundle includes FortiCare Premium plus all FortiGuard services in a single SKU and is typically the more cost-effective starting point.

The Premium-to-Elite upgrade is the right choice when FortiGuard bundles are already in place and you specifically want to step the support tier up to Elite.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is required before applying this upgrade?

Active FortiCare Premium on the same FortiWiFi 40F serial number is mandatory. The upgrade activates Elite features on top of Premium; it cannot function without the Premium base already in place.

Does this replace my FortiCare Premium contract?

No. Your Premium contract remains active. The upgrade runs in parallel and enables Elite-tier features for its 1-year term. When the upgrade expires, the device reverts to Premium-level coverage.

Are 3-year or 5-year versions available?

The FC-10-W040F-204-02-36 (3-year) and FC-10-W040F-204-02-60 (5-year) SKUs are currently out of stock. Contact DataCenter360.ca to inquire about availability.

What does the Elite monitoring portal do?

The FortiCare Elite monitoring portal provides proactive visibility into device health status, firmware compliance, and potential issues. It also delivers early security advisory notifications beyond what the standard Premium support experience includes.

Can I use this for a FortiWiFi 40F registered outside Canada?

Yes. FortiCare licenses have no geographic restrictions. DataCenter360.ca delivers contract keys electronically to any country within 0-1 business days.
