Fortinet FortiAP-432FR FortiCare Premium, 5-Year (FC-10-FR432-247-02-60)

Five years of 24×7 TAC coverage on a single contract is the lowest-administration way to protect a FortiAP-432FR over its full outdoor service life. The 5-year FortiCare Premium (FC-10-FR432-247-02-60) eliminates annual renewal cycles, locks in the per-year support cost at today’s pricing, and keeps the FAP-432FR — Fortinet’s outdoor Wi-Fi 6 AP built for industrial, transit, and remote-site deployments — continuously covered without gaps or lapse risk.

What FortiCare Premium Covers

For five consecutive years from the activation date, FortiCare Premium provides 24x7x365 telephone and web-case access to Fortinet’s TAC, a one-hour response target for critical severity issues, full firmware and software update entitlement, Fortinet support portal access, and Next Business Day advance hardware replacement RMA registered to the specific FortiAP-432FR serial number.

FortiCare Tier Comparison

This contract is the FortiCare Premium tier. Here is how it compares to Essential and Premium across the key dimensions:

Who Buys a 5-Year Term

Organizations that plan infrastructure on multi-year capital cycles, procurement teams managing large AP fleets at outdoor venues, municipal transit authorities, energy and utilities operators at remote sites, and any IT team that wants to eliminate the administrative risk of an annual renewal missing the renewal window. The FortiAP-432FR is often deployed in locations where lapse in support would be costly or logistically difficult to address — a five-year contract removes that risk entirely.

Activation and Delivery

Delivered electronically. DataCenter360.ca emails activation details after the order processes, typically the same business day. Register the contract to the FortiAP-432FR serial number at support.fortinet.com. The 5-year term begins on the registration date. If you are stacking this contract onto an existing unexpired Premium contract, Fortinet appends the new term to the current expiry date rather than restarting the clock immediately.

5-Year vs. Shorter Terms

Annual (FC-10-FR432-247-02-12) and 3-year (FC-10-FR432-247-02-36) FortiCare Premium contracts carry the identical support SLAs — same 24×7 TAC, same 1-hour critical response, same NBD RMA. The only difference is the duration and renewal frequency. A 5-year term reduces administrative touchpoints to a single activation for the entire contract window. If the deployment requires a tighter hardware-replacement SLA than NBD, FortiCare Elite 5-year (FC-10-FR432-284-02-60) upgrades to Next Calendar Day delivery and a 15-minute critical response target.
