Product description

Spread over five years, FortiCare Elite Support for the FortiSwitch 108F works out to approximately $49.50 per year, the lowest annual rate of any term length in the FC-10-F108N-284-02 series. FC-10-F108N-284-02-60 locks in 24×7 Fortinet TAC access, next-business-day advanced hardware replacement, and full FortiSwitchOS firmware entitlements from activation through 60 months on the FS-108F standard non-PoE model. For organizations with a stable, long-running FortiSwitch 108F deployment and no near-term plans to retire the unit, the 5-Year term is the most cost-efficient way to keep the switch fully supported for its entire operational life.

What it covers

FortiCare Elite Support (service code 284) is Fortinet’s highest support tier for the FortiSwitch 108F. FC-10-F108N-284-02-60 provides all of the following for a continuous 60-month term:

Who needs it

FC-10-F108N-284-02-60 is designed for teams running the standard FortiSwitch 108F in stable, non-PoE network environments. The FS-108F connects self-powered equipment such as servers, workstations, and storage over its 8 GbE data ports and 2 SFP uplinks, without the PoE circuitry found in the FPOE variant. This service is not the correct contract for the FortiSwitch 108F-FPOE; that model requires the FC-10-F108F-284 series.

Activation & delivery

FC-10-F108N-284-02-60 is an electronic service contract. No hardware is shipped at any point during the 5-year term. 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 60-month term begins on the activation date and runs continuously with no mid-term check-in or re-activation step. Service is available to customers worldwide.

One service vs the bundle

FC-10-F108N-284-02-60 covers the standard FortiSwitch 108F (FS-108F), an 8-port GbE switch with 2 SFP uplinks and no PoE hardware. The FC-10-F108N prefix is specific to this non-PoE model. The FortiSwitch 108F-FPOE variant, which includes PoE circuitry for powering IP phones, access points, and cameras, is covered by the FC-10-F108F-284 series. Applying this contract to a FPOE serial number will fail at Fortinet registration.

FortiCare Elite is a hardware support and direct TAC access contract. It does not include FortiGuard threat intelligence subscriptions, FortiManager management licenses, or FortiAnalyzer log entitlements. Each of those products requires its own separate support contract. If you manage your FortiSwitch 108F through a FortiGate or FortiManager appliance, those devices need their own FortiCare coverage independent of this contract.

Buying from DataCenter360.ca

DataCenter360.ca is an authorized Fortinet Select Partner. Purchasing FC-10-F108N-284-02-60 here guarantees the contract is registered through Fortinet’s official channel, with no gray-market risk and full warranty standing for all five years. At $247.50 for 60 months, the 5-Year term delivers the lowest annual support cost in the FC-10-F108N-284-02 range and eliminates the procurement effort of managing annual renewals across the switch’s deployment life. For orders covering multiple FortiSwitch 108F units or for customers who want to align contract end dates across a larger FortiSwitch fleet, contact DataCenter360.ca for a consolidated quote before ordering.

Frequently asked questions

How much does the 5-Year term save compared to five separate 1-Year contracts?
At current pricing, FC-10-F108N-284-02-60 costs $247.50 for 60 months, approximately $49.50 per year. The 1-Year contract FC-10-F108N-284-02-12 is priced at $55.69 per year. Over five years, the 5-Year term saves roughly $30.95 compared to purchasing five consecutive 1-Year contracts, in addition to eliminating four separate renewal transactions.
Does FC-10-F108N-284-02-60 cover the FortiSwitch 108F-FPOE?
No. The FC-10-F108N prefix applies only to the standard FortiSwitch 108F (FS-108F), which has no PoE hardware. The FPOE variant requires the FC-10-F108F-284 support series. Applying this contract to a FPOE serial number will produce a registration error at the Fortinet Support portal.
Is next-business-day advanced replacement available in all five years of the term?
Yes. FortiCare Elite next-business-day advanced replacement applies throughout the entire 60-month contract. Fortinet ships a replacement unit before receiving the failed switch regardless of which year of the term the failure occurs. There is no degradation of replacement terms in later years.
What if Fortinet releases a new FortiSwitchOS major version during the 5-year term?
All FortiSwitchOS firmware updates, including major version releases, are included in the FortiCare Elite entitlement for the duration of the contract. You can download and install any release supported on the FS-108F platform from the Fortinet Support portal while the contract is active.
Can I apply this contract to a FortiSwitch 108F that already has an active FortiCare contract?
Yes. Fortinet stacks support contracts, so FC-10-F108N-284-02-60 will extend the coverage end date from wherever the existing contract ends. You do not lose any remaining time on a current contract; the 60 months begin from the current expiry date. DataCenter360.ca can confirm the stacking behavior for your specific serial number before purchase.
