Product description

A five-year FortiCare Elite contract on the FortiGate 70G covers the full expected lifecycle of the appliance under a single purchase order. The 70G runs Fortinet’s SP5 security processor and is positioned for SMB branches and distributed office sites where the firewall is the primary perimeter control. Locking in Elite-tier support for five years removes annual renewal overhead and keeps a 1-hour critical response SLA in place from commissioning through end of life.

What FortiCare Elite Covers

FortiCare Elite is the highest support tier Fortinet offers. FC-10-GT70G-284-02-60 delivers the full Elite feature set for a 5-year term:

  • 1-hour SLA for Priority 1 critical issues, 24 hours a day, 365 days a year
  • 24×7 telephone TAC access with senior engineer escalation
  • Next-business-day hardware replacement RMA
  • Eligibility to add Priority RMA upgrades (4-hour delivery or 4-hour onsite)
  • Firmware downloads, security advisories, and FortiCare portal access for the full term
  • Extended LTS firmware support and Elite proactive monitoring portal

This product provides FortiCare Elite tier coverage. The comparison below shows what changes between the three available FortiCare service levels:

Feature Essential Premium Elite
Critical issue response Next business day 4 hours 1 hour
24×7 telephone support
Hardware replacement RMA Next business day Next business day Next business day
Priority RMA add-on eligible
Firmware, tools & portal access
Extended LTS support & Elite monitoring portal

Who Uses a 5-Year Term

The five-year term is popular with organizations that align IT procurement to capital budget cycles. Purchasing support alongside the hardware in a single multi-year commitment simplifies accounting, avoids annual renewals, and locks in the support tier at current pricing. It fits mid-market customers with stable environments — a regional retail chain, a multi-site professional services firm, or an industrial operator running the 70G on a fixed OT network — where the site design is not expected to change significantly over the product’s service life.

Activation and Delivery

FC-10-GT70G-284-02-60 is an electronic license. DataCenter360.ca delivers the activation key within 0–1 business days of payment. Register at support.fortinet.com, go to Asset Management, and apply the key against the FortiGate 70G serial number. The contract expiry date updates to five years from activation, and Elite portal access is available immediately in the same account.

FortiCare Elite vs a FortiGuard Bundle

FortiCare covers support logistics: TAC response times, RMA, and firmware access. FortiGuard bundles (UTP, Enterprise) layer threat intelligence on top — IPS signatures, DNS filtering, antivirus, sandboxing, and application control. Many deployments purchase both: a FortiGuard bundle for threat protection and a FortiCare tier for support quality. If the 70G already has a bundle subscription and the priority is faster TAC response, FortiCare Elite purchased separately is the right choice.

Buying from DataCenter360.ca

DataCenter360.ca is a Fortinet Select Partner serving Canadian businesses with electronic license fulfillment. A 5-year contract represents a meaningful commitment and the team is available to confirm the correct SKU before the order is placed, verify stacking against existing contracts, and assist with any post-purchase activation questions. Multi-site orders covering multiple FortiGate 70G units can be processed under a single purchase order.

What is the FortiCare Elite monitoring portal and what does it show?

The Elite monitoring portal is a Fortinet-managed service that gives Fortinet engineers visibility into the registered appliance’s contract status, firmware version, and any open security advisories. It enables proactive outreach from Fortinet before a known issue becomes an incident, rather than waiting for the customer to open a case.

Does the 5-year term start from purchase or from activation?

From activation at support.fortinet.com. If the key is purchased in advance and activated later, the 5-year clock starts at activation. For units already in service, the term stacks from the current contract expiry rather than the purchase date.

Is FortiCare Elite available for the FortiGate 70G in all countries?

Yes. Electronic Fortinet licenses are registered against a serial number and are not geographically restricted. FC-10-GT70G-284-02-60 can be applied to a FortiGate 70G installed anywhere in the world, and DataCenter360.ca delivers the activation key electronically to any country.

Does FortiCare Elite include FortiGuard security subscriptions?

No. FortiCare is a support contract covering TAC response, RMA, and firmware access. FortiGuard threat feeds (IPS, AV, URL filtering, etc.) require a separate subscription. A FortiGuard bundle such as UTP or Enterprise includes a FortiCare tier, but purchasing FortiCare Elite standalone gives you support coverage only, not threat intelligence.

Can I add Priority RMA to a FortiGate 70G already on Elite?

Yes. FortiCare Elite makes the appliance eligible for Priority RMA add-ons — either 4-hour hardware delivery (FC-10-GT70G-210) or 4-hour onsite engineer (FC-10-GT70G-212). These are separate SKUs purchased in addition to Elite and define how quickly a replacement unit arrives after Fortinet approves the RMA.
