Fortinet FortiGate 900G-DC Next Calendar Day Delivery Priority RMA, 1-Year (FC-10-FD9H0-210-02-12)

Standard return-and-replace RMA has you ship the faulty unit first and wait, which is fine until a FortiGate 900G-DC carries production traffic. The FortiGate 900G-DC 1-Year Next Calendar Day Delivery Priority RMA (FC-10-FD9H0-210-02-12) replaces that wait for twelve months: a spare ships for next-calendar-day delivery as soon as an exchange is approved, weekends and holidays included.

What this priority RMA delivers

This is the next-calendar-day advanced-replacement RMA for one FortiGate 900G-DC, active across the 1-year term. Once an exchange is confirmed, a replacement appliance is dispatched for next-calendar-day delivery, weekends and holidays included, rather than the standard next-business-day return-and-replace path. A spare ships before the faulty unit is returned, so the FortiGate 900G-DC is not left waiting on an inspection-first process. Installation is handled by your own staff.

Priority RMA is an add-on that requires an active FortiCare Premium or Elite contract on the same FortiGate 900G-DC. FortiCare Essential is not eligible. The add-on accelerates hardware replacement only; technical support, firmware updates, and response-time SLAs are provided by the underlying FortiCare tier.

Who needs next-calendar-day replacement

Next-calendar-day advanced replacement suits FortiGate 900G-DC units in production where waiting on a standard return-and-replace cycle leaves redundancy exposed too long. It is the practical baseline priority tier: faster than the default RMA, without the premium of four-hour courier delivery. Sites that can tolerate a short shipping window but not an open return process land here. Where a failed appliance must be back in service the same day, the four-hour courier tier steps up from this level.

How priority RMA fits your support contract

Every FortiCare tier includes some form of hardware RMA, but the speed and terms differ, and priority RMA add-ons are only available on the Premium and Elite tiers. The table summarizes where each level sits so you can confirm the FortiGate 900G-DC carries an eligible support contract before layering this service on top.

Activation and delivery

The service entitlement is issued electronically and registered to one FortiGate 900G-DC by serial number, so there is nothing to ship to start coverage. Physical replacement logistics depend on Fortinet service availability for your country or region, so we can confirm coverage for your location before you order. A valid FortiGate 900G-DC under an active FortiCare Premium or Elite contract is required for this add-on to apply.
