Authorized Partner for United States (US)The FC-10-GT50G-314-02-12 is the starting point for Fortinet-covered FortiGate 50G deployments: one year of FortiCare Essential that keeps firmware current, opens the Fortinet support portal, and ensures a hardware replacement path if the unit goes down. It’s the lowest commitment to maintain Fortinet’s contractual support obligations on the FG-50G.
This is Fortinet’s Essential tier — the entry-level hardware support contract for the FortiGate 50G. The 1-year term delivers firmware and security-content update access, Fortinet online support portal and knowledge base, and next-business-day RMA. Telephone technical assistance and Priority RMA are available by stepping up to FortiCare Premium.

Annual Essential is well-suited to proof-of-concept deployments, new FG-50G installations where coverage requirements haven’t been finalized, or environments where an annual license audit is already part of the IT process. It’s also the right entry point for organizations evaluating whether the FortiGate 50G’s usage pattern warrants upgrading to a bundle or premium tier at renewal time.
Electronic delivery only. DataCenter360.ca sends the entitlement details within 0–1 business days after order confirmation. Activation goes through the FortiCare portal or directly on the FG-50G unit via the GUI. Stacking on an existing contract is supported — the new 1-year term begins from the current expiry date rather than overwriting it.
The 1-year Essential is the most flexible option but carries the highest per-year cost relative to the 3-year or 5-year terms. If the FortiGate 50G is a permanent fixture in your environment and the intent is to maintain ongoing coverage, the 3-year or 5-year listing will reduce total cost. The 5-year term also locks in the current entitlement price before any Fortinet price-list adjustments.
DataCenter360.ca is a Fortinet Select Partner delivering licenses to buyers worldwide with electronic fulfillment. Whether this is a first-time activation or a straightforward annual renewal on an FG-50G, the process is the same: order online, receive entitlement details by email, activate on the device. Multi-unit orders and quotes combining hardware and support are available on request.
It provides firmware and security-content update access, the Fortinet support portal and documentation library, and next-business-day hardware RMA for the FortiGate 50G. Phone-based TAC support and Priority RMA are not included — those are Premium and Elite features.
No financial penalty, but Fortinet may require a lapsed-contract reinstatement fee on some product lines when coverage has been expired for an extended period. It’s generally advisable to renew before the current term expires to avoid any gap-related complications at registration.
Yes. Fortinet allows mid-contract upgrades from Essential to Premium. You’d purchase the Premium upgrade entitlement and apply it to the same FG-50G serial number. Alternatively, you can move to Premium at the next renewal by purchasing the FC-10-GT50G-247-02-12 (FortiCare Premium 1-Year) instead of renewing Essential.
No. FortiCare licenses are electronic entitlements tied to the hardware serial number, not a delivery country. DataCenter360.ca fulfills internationally, and the contract is valid worldwide once registered against the FG-50G unit.
If the FortiGate 50G needs IPS, web filtering, application control, and other active security subscriptions, the UTP bundle (which includes FortiCare Premium) delivers far better value than purchasing Essential and FortiGuard services separately. Essential alone is the right choice only when the FG-50G is already covered by other FortiGuard subscriptions and the goal is simply to maintain hardware support.
