Product description

Three years is the typical refresh cycle for access-layer switches, and aligning a FortiCare Elite contract to that same window means the FortiSwitch 108F stays under Fortinet TAC coverage for its entire working life without requiring an annual renewal. FC-10-F108N-284-02-36 locks in 24×7 engineer access, next-business-day advanced hardware replacement, and all FortiSwitchOS firmware entitlements across 36 months on the FS-108F standard non-PoE model. For IT teams that have committed to the FortiSwitch platform and want predictable support costs in a single purchase, the 3-Year term eliminates the overhead of tracking an annual renewal deadline.

What it covers

FortiCare Elite Support (service code 284) is Fortinet’s highest support tier for the FortiSwitch 108F. The 3-Year contract FC-10-F108N-284-02-36 provides all of the following across a continuous 36-month term:

Who needs it

FC-10-F108N-284-02-36 is the correct support contract for teams deploying the standard FortiSwitch 108F in environments that do not use Power over Ethernet. The FS-108F connects self-powered devices such as servers, workstations, storage arrays, and other infrastructure equipment over its 8 GbE data ports and 2 SFP uplinks. This service is not appropriate for the FortiSwitch 108F-FPOE variant, which carries its own FC-10-F108F-284 support series.

Activation & delivery

FC-10-F108N-284-02-36 is an electronic service contract. No hardware is shipped. After purchase, DataCenter360.ca processes the order and Fortinet delivers the license key by email, typically within one business day. Activation is completed through the Fortinet Support portal (support.fortinet.com): navigate to Asset Management, enter the key, and bind it to your FS-108F serial number. The 3-Year term begins on the activation date and runs continuously for 36 months with no annual check-in or re-activation step. Service is available to customers worldwide.

One service vs the bundle

FC-10-F108N-284-02-36 is a hardware support and TAC access contract for the standard FortiSwitch 108F (FS-108F), the non-PoE 8-port GbE model. It does not cover the FortiSwitch 108F-FPOE variant; that model requires the FC-10-F108F-284 series. Attaching the wrong contract to a mismatched serial number results in a registration error at Fortinet’s portal.

FortiCare Elite is also separate from FortiGuard security subscriptions and FortiManager or FortiAnalyzer licenses. It covers the physical switch and direct Fortinet TAC access, not threat intelligence feeds or centralized management entitlements. If your FortiSwitch is managed through a FortiGate or FortiManager appliance, those products require their own independent support contracts.

Buying from DataCenter360.ca

DataCenter360.ca is an authorized Fortinet Select Partner, ensuring that FC-10-F108N-284-02-36 is registered through Fortinet’s official channel with full warranty standing and no gray-market exposure. At $167.06 for three years, the 3-Year contract consolidates what would otherwise be three separate annual purchases into a single order, simplifying procurement and removing the risk of a coverage gap caused by a missed renewal. If you are covering multiple FortiSwitch 108F units or need to align renewal dates across a larger deployment, contact DataCenter360.ca for a fleet quote before ordering.

Frequently asked questions

Does the 3-Year term offer any price advantage over buying three 1-Year contracts?
At current pricing, the per-year cost of the 3-Year contract is approximately equal to the 1-Year price, so the primary advantage is operational rather than financial: one purchase, one renewal date to track, and no risk of a gap in TAC coverage if a renewal is missed.
Does FC-10-F108N-284-02-36 cover the FortiSwitch 108F-FPOE?
No. The FC-10-F108N prefix specifically covers the standard FortiSwitch 108F (FS-108F), which has 8 GbE data ports and 2 SFP uplinks but no PoE hardware. The FPOE variant requires the FC-10-F108F-284 series. Binding the wrong contract to a FPOE serial number will fail at Fortinet registration.
What happens if my FS-108F needs a hardware replacement in year 2 or 3?
FortiCare Elite next-business-day advanced replacement applies for the full 36-month term. Fortinet will ship a replacement unit before receiving the failed switch in any year of the contract, not only in year 1. You do not need to re-activate or purchase an additional term to access this benefit.
Can I stack a renewal contract on top of this 3-Year term before it expires?
Yes. Fortinet allows renewal contracts to be applied before the current term ends; the new term stacks onto the remaining days. DataCenter360.ca can issue a renewal quote as you approach the end of the 36-month window.
Is this service available outside Canada?
Yes. FC-10-F108N-284-02-36 is an electronic service contract delivered by email, with no hardware shipment. DataCenter360.ca can process orders from customers worldwide, and Fortinet’s TAC and support portal are globally accessible with no geographic restriction.
