Product description

Committing to a five-year support term for the FortiGate 50G means one renewal, one invoice, and a fixed support rate locked for the life of the contract. FC-10-GT50G-247-02-60 covers FortiCare Premium on the FG-50G through a single registration, eliminating the administrative overhead of annual renewal cycles for a device that typically stays deployed at a branch for several years.

What FortiCare Premium Covers

FortiCare Premium provides Fortinet’s mid-tier TAC support: a 2-hour response SLA for critical cases, direct telephone access to Fortinet engineers, next-business-day hardware replacement, and full access to firmware updates and the Fortinet support portal. This subscription applies specifically to the FortiGate 50G (license prefix GT50G) running FortiOS on the FortiSP5 ASIC platform.

Who Benefits from the 5-Year Term

A five-year subscription fits when the FortiGate 50G has a known deployment horizon at a fixed location, such as a regional office, retail location, or light-industrial site where network infrastructure refreshes happen on a 5-to-7-year cycle. Finance teams appreciate the predictability of a single multi-year line item versus five separate annual purchases, and the contract rate is set at today’s pricing for the full term. Multi-site deployments often standardize on 5-year terms so all devices renew together.

Activation and Delivery

FC-10-GT50G-247-02-60 is an electronic license delivered by email after your order is processed. You register the key in the Fortinet Support portal against the FortiGate 50G serial number, and support activates immediately. The full five-year entitlement attaches to the device from day one of registration. No physical delivery, no regional restrictions, no customs delays.

FortiCare Premium vs. a Full Bundle

This SKU covers support only. It does not include FortiGuard threat intelligence services such as IPS, web filtering, DNS filtering, or antivirus. If you need FortiGuard services alongside support, consider the UTP or Enterprise subscription bundles for the FortiGate 50G, which combine FortiCare Premium with the relevant FortiGuard components. The standalone FortiCare Premium makes sense when a bundle subscription is already handling threat services and only the support tier needs renewal, or when managing the two cycles separately suits your procurement process.

Buying from DataCenter360.ca

Multi-year Fortinet license terms are priced by Fortinet and remain the same through DataCenter360.ca as through any authorized channel. What changes is the service experience: DataCenter360.ca is a Fortinet Select Partner and MSSP focused exclusively on Fortinet products, and the team can assist with registration, co-terming across multiple devices, or aligning this support renewal with hardware bundle cycles. License keys arrive by email and are delivered worldwide electronically.

What happens if I replace the FortiGate 50G before the 5 years are up?

FortiCare contracts are tied to the device serial number and are generally non-transferable to a different unit. If you replace the hardware, the remaining term does not carry over automatically. Fortinet may offer co-terming or credit options in specific scenarios; contact DataCenter360.ca or Fortinet TAC for your situation.

Is a 5-year term more cost-effective than five 1-year renewals?

Pricing for multi-year Fortinet licenses is set by Fortinet’s price book. A 5-year term is generally more cost-effective than five separate 1-year renewals and removes the risk of a renewal lapse. Compare the 1-year (FC-10-GT50G-247-02-12) and 3-year (FC-10-GT50G-247-02-36) options if you prefer shorter commitments.

Does FortiCare Premium include FortiGuard security services?

No. FortiCare Premium covers hardware support, TAC access, and firmware updates. FortiGuard services such as IPS, web filtering, and antivirus require a bundle subscription such as UTP (FC-10-GT50G-950) or Enterprise (FC-10-GT50G-809) that includes both support and FortiGuard components.

Can I upgrade from FortiCare Premium to Elite mid-term?

Fortinet does not typically allow mid-term tier upgrades on existing contracts. You would renew at the Elite tier when the current term expires, or purchase an Elite co-term for the remaining period as a separate key. Contact DataCenter360.ca for upgrade scenarios specific to your contract.

Is FC-10-GT50G-247-02-60 available to buyers outside Canada?

Yes. This is a software license with no geographic purchase restriction. DataCenter360.ca delivers license keys electronically to customers worldwide. The license registers against a specific FortiGate 50G serial number in the Fortinet Support portal regardless of where the device is deployed.
