United States (US) Authorized DistributorFive years is the coverage window you select when a deployment is stable and long-term. The FortiGate 50G-DSL is built for that kind of site: a fixed-line DSL branch with consistent WAN access and an established network footprint. Locking in five years of FortiCare Essential with the FC-10-F50GD-314-02-60 means one procurement cycle for the entire coverage period and no annual renewal reminders until the term expires.
FortiCare Essential is the base support tier for Fortinet hardware. With the FC-10-F50GD-314-02-60 active on your FortiGate 50G-DSL, you receive ticket-based access to Fortinet’s Technical Assistance Center, rights to download firmware and feature updates, and portal access for license and FortiGuard service management. The tier does not include telephone support or advance hardware replacement. Those are part of FortiCare Premium and Elite.
This product is the FortiCare Essential tier. The table below shows how the three FortiCare support levels compare for FortiGate hardware:
| Support Feature | Essential | Premium | Elite |
|---|---|---|---|
| Ticket-based TAC support | ✓ | ✓ | ✓ |
| Telephone support (24×7) | — | ✓ | ✓ |
| Advance hardware replacement (RMA) | — | ✓ | ✓ |
| Priority RMA add-on eligibility | — | ✓ | ✓ |
| Firmware updates, tools and portal access | ✓ | ✓ | ✓ |
| Extended LTS support and Elite monitoring portal | — | — | ✓ |
Five-year Essential contracts are common for DSL branch sites managed by IT teams with internal troubleshooting capacity. Long-term coverage is attractive when hardware EoL timelines are known and the unit will be in service for the full term. Organizations running a FortiGate 50G-DSL as the sole branch firewall should evaluate whether the lack of RMA in Essential is an acceptable risk, or whether stepping up to a Premium-tier bundle is warranted.
The FC-10-F50GD-314-02-60 is a software entitlement delivered electronically. After placing the order, Fortinet issues an activation key that you register in the FortiCare or FortiCloud portal against the FortiGate 50G-DSL serial number. DataCenter360.ca processes orders within 0-1 business days. Activation on the Fortinet portal takes a few minutes and no physical installation is required.
FortiCare Essential covers support and maintenance only; it does not include FortiGuard security subscriptions. If the FortiGate 50G-DSL is also running IPS, Web Filtering, or other threat protection, those services need separate FortiGuard licenses, or you can consolidate with a multi-year UTP bundle (FC-10-F50GD-950-02-12) or Enterprise bundle (FC-10-F50GD-809-02-12) that combine FortiCare Premium and FortiGuard services into a single annual or multi-year SKU.
DataCenter360.ca is a Fortinet Select Partner and MSSP. The FC-10-F50GD-314-02-60 ships electronically with same-business-day or next-business-day processing. A five-year purchase means one invoice, one activation, and no renewal friction until the coverage period ends. If you need help comparing Essential against Premium for your DSL branch fleet, our team can walk through the cost and risk trade-offs before you order.
