Authorized Partner for United States (US)Five years of FortiCare Essential coverage on a single purchase — that’s the straightforward value of the FC-10-GT50G-314-02-60. For organizations running the FortiGate 50G at a branch or small-office perimeter and staffed by capable IT teams, locking in a 5-year support contract eliminates annual renewal overhead and provides budget predictability for the full equipment lifecycle.
This is Fortinet’s Essential tier — the entry-level support contract. It includes firmware and security-content updates pushed through FortiGuard, access to the Fortinet support portal and knowledge base, and next-business-day hardware replacement (RMA) if the FortiGate 50G unit fails. Telephone support and Priority RMA are not part of this tier; those are available in Premium and Elite.

The 5-year Essential is a fit for branch deployments where on-site or in-house IT can handle troubleshooting independently and the primary concern is maintaining a current firmware baseline and a documented hardware swap path. It’s also commonly purchased by MSPs running FG-50G units across cost-sensitive client sites where annual renewal tracking is a burden. The 5-year term avoids that overhead entirely.
This is a software entitlement — no physical media, no shipping. After your order is confirmed, DataCenter360.ca delivers the contract registration details electronically within 0–1 business days. Activation is performed on the FortiGate 50G unit itself via the CLI or the GUI under System > FortiGuard, or through the FortiCare support portal using the unit’s serial number.
FortiCare Essential is a hardware support contract, not a security subscription. It does not include FortiGuard services such as IPS signatures, web filtering, application control, or anti-malware feeds. If the FortiGate 50G needs active threat-prevention features, the UTP or Enterprise bundle (which includes FortiCare Premium) is the right path. Essential makes sense when those FortiGuard subscriptions are already in place and the goal is simply to keep hardware support current.
DataCenter360.ca is a Fortinet Select Partner and MSSP delivering licenses electronically to customers worldwide. The FC-10-GT50G-314-02-60 ships to any country as an electronic entitlement — no customs, no lead time. For multi-unit purchases, a different term, or a quote that combines hardware and support, reach out directly for partner pricing.
Essential provides firmware and security-content updates, Fortinet support portal and knowledge base access, and next-business-day hardware RMA if the FG-50G fails. It does not include phone support or Priority RMA — those require upgrading to FortiCare Premium or the Elite tier.
It can be applied as either. For a unit with an active contract, the new 5-year term stacks from the current expiry date. For a unit with no active coverage, the term begins on activation. Fortinet’s licensing system handles both scenarios through the support portal.
Yes. FortiCare licenses are delivered electronically and tied to the unit’s serial number, not a shipping country. DataCenter360.ca fulfills orders worldwide, and the entitlement is valid globally once registered against the hardware.
Essential is hardware support only — no FortiGuard threat-intelligence services included. The UTP bundle adds IPS, web filtering, anti-malware, DNS filtering, and other FortiGuard subscriptions on top of FortiCare Premium. If active security inspection is running on the FG-50G, the UTP bundle delivers significantly more value per dollar.
Typically within the same business day for orders placed during standard hours. DataCenter360.ca targets 0–1 business day turnaround for all electronic fulfillment. You receive the entitlement details by email, ready to activate on the FortiGate unit.
