Already running FortiCare Premium on the FortiGateRugged 70G-5G-DUAL and want to step up to Elite? This 3-year upgrade SKU (FC-10-F70G5-204-02-36) moves the device to Elite-level coverage for a 36-month term, without requiring you to purchase a full standalone Elite subscription. It requires an active FortiCare Premium contract to be in place on the same device — it functions as a tier bridge, not a replacement. The license is delivered electronically worldwide.
FortiCare Premium already includes 24×7 TAC phone support, same-day hardware RMA, and firmware access. The step up to Elite adds two meaningful capabilities: the Elite monitoring portal (enhanced telemetry and proactive Fortinet engagement) and access to extended long-term stability (LTS) firmware releases. Those LTS branches matter for OT and industrial environments where firmware changes must pass through strict change-management cycles and where staying on a known-stable release for months is the norm rather than the exception.
Where this upgrade lands you in the FortiCare tier structure:
| Feature | Essential | Premium | Elite |
|---|---|---|---|
| 24×7 TAC support & critical-issue response | ✓ | ✓ | ✓ |
| Telephone support | — | ✓ | ✓ |
| Same-day hardware RMA | — | ✓ | ✓ |
| Priority RMA (next-business-day) | — | — | Add-on eligible |
| Firmware, tools & support portal | ✓ | ✓ | ✓ |
| Extended LTS support & Elite monitoring portal | — | — | ✓ |
Teams that purchased FortiCare Premium with their FortiGateRugged 70G-5G-DUAL deployment — either as a standalone SKU or as part of a prior contract — and later decide that Elite monitoring and LTS firmware access are needed. The upgrade path is more cost-effective than purchasing a full standalone Elite subscription if Premium is already active, since you pay only for the delta between tiers. It suits OT security teams that have recently adopted a more formal firmware-management process, and MSPs adding proactive monitoring capability for remote or unattended sites.
After purchase, the license key is delivered electronically, typically within one business day. Register it in the Fortinet Support Portal on the same device serial number where the active FortiCare Premium subscription is registered. The portal verifies the prerequisite and activates the Elite tier for the 3-year duration. No hardware is shipped.
If FortiCare Premium is not yet active on the device, purchase the standalone FortiCare Elite SKU (FC-10-F70G5-284-02-36) instead — it activates Elite directly without a prerequisite. This upgrade SKU is specifically for devices that already have an active Premium contract in the Fortinet Support Portal. If you want the full suite of FortiGuard security services alongside support coverage, look at the UTP or Enterprise bundles for the FGR-70G-5G-DUAL.
