Fortinet FortiWiFi 70G Secure RMA Service, 1-Year (FC-10-FW70G-301-02-12)

Hardware failures happen, and most RMA processes require shipping the defective unit back to the manufacturer. For organizations where that is not acceptable — because the device holds configuration data that must stay on-site — the FC-10-FW70G-301-02-12 provides a contractual alternative. This 1-year Secure RMA service for the FortiWiFi 70G lets you retain the failed appliance on your premises when you initiate a replacement claim. A new unit ships from Fortinet; you keep the old one.

What Secure RMA Provides

The FWF-70G stores configuration data on internal solid-state media that is not field-removable. Under a standard support contract, that unit must be returned. FC-10-FW70G-301-02-12 removes that requirement for a 1-year period: when hardware fails, you open an RMA case, Fortinet ships a replacement, and you are not obligated to return the defective device. You remain in physical custody of the unit and any data on it.

The 1-year term is useful for piloting the service before committing to multi-year coverage, or for covering a gap year in a multi-year lifecycle plan. It is not a speed upgrade — the replacement ships under your FortiCare support timeline. Secure RMA is specifically a data-governance provision.

Who This Is For

The FortiWiFi 70G is positioned for branch offices and distributed sites. Organizations with data governance policies that prohibit hardware from leaving the building in any state — or that require a documented chain of custody for devices that touched regulated data — benefit from knowing the answer before a failure happens. One year of Secure RMA coverage is a practical choice for sites mid-contract cycle, organizations evaluating whether the service is available in their region, or those who want short-term coverage while multi-year plans are finalized.

Activation and Delivery

FC-10-FW70G-301-02-12 is delivered electronically through DataCenter360.ca. After order confirmation, the Fortinet license entitlement is available within 0 to 1 business days. Register it in the Fortinet Support Portal against your FortiWiFi 70G serial number and the 12-month Secure RMA coverage starts immediately. Confirm regional availability with Fortinet before purchase, as this service is not available in every country.

1-Year Coverage vs Longer Terms

Secure RMA for the FortiWiFi 70G is also available as FC-10-FW70G-301-02-36 (3-Year) and FC-10-FW70G-301-02-60 (5-Year). If this 1-year term confirms the service works as expected in your region and for your compliance program, renewing with a longer term at the next cycle provides continuity. Aligning the Secure RMA and FortiCare Premium renewal dates avoids a situation where one lapses while the other is active.
