Product description

A PoE switch outage during business hours hits endpoints immediately: phones drop, access points go dark, and cameras lose power. The standard return-and-replace timeline doesn’t fit environments where hours matter more than days. The Fortinet FortiSwitch-108F-POE 4-Hour Hardware Priority RMA 1-Year (FC-10-F108P-211-02-12) delivers a replacement FS-108F-POE within four hours of the RMA case being opened and approved — the same calendar day, not the next business day.

What 4-Hour Hardware Priority RMA Covers

This Priority RMA add-on upgrades the hardware exchange speed for the FortiSwitch-108F-POE beyond the standard Next Calendar Day tier. Once an RMA case is opened under your active FortiCare Premium or Elite contract, Fortinet dispatches a replacement unit targeting delivery within 4 hours. The 1-year term provides 12 months of this coverage, suitable for sites where annual budget cycles govern support purchasing and where a rapid hardware replacement guarantee is required during a defined period.

Who Needs Same-Day Hardware Replacement

4-Hour Hardware Priority RMA is appropriate when the operational cost of a same-day switch failure exceeds the cost differential between next-day and 4-hour service. Financial trading environments, healthcare facilities relying on IP-connected equipment, retail Point-of-Sale networks, and dense open-plan offices where IP telephony is primary all fit this profile. Sites running PoE-powered security cameras in access-controlled areas have particular sensitivity: a switch failure can take a segment of physical security monitoring offline for the duration of the outage.

Activation and Delivery

FC-10-F108P-211-02-12 is a software-only service contract. After ordering from DataCenter360.ca, your registration key is delivered electronically — typically within one business day. You register the key against your FortiSwitch-108F-POE serial number in the Fortinet Support portal, and coverage becomes active immediately. No hardware ships at activation. The license is available worldwide and the contract has no geographic restriction.

FortiCare Support Levels at a Glance

4-Hour Hardware Priority RMA requires FortiCare Premium or Elite as the base support tier. The table below shows the differences across base support tiers before adding the Priority RMA service:

Essential Premium Elite
Hardware RMA Return & replace Advanced replacement Advanced replacement
Priority RMA add-on eligible
Critical-issue response Next business day 1 hour 15 minutes
Telephone support

Term and Renewal

This is the 1-year (12-month) term. If your deployment runs longer and you prefer to reduce renewal frequency, 3-year and 5-year terms for the FC-10-F108P-211 are available. Priority RMA must remain co-terminus with your FortiCare base contract; a lapsed base contract disables the Priority RMA add-on regardless of whether the RMA term itself has not expired.

Buying from DataCenter360.ca

DataCenter360.ca handles FortiSwitch support contracts as a Fortinet Select Partner, with direct access to all Priority RMA add-on SKUs. For the FS-108F-POE specifically, we confirm base FortiCare eligibility and serial-number alignment before processing support orders. Order the FC-10-F108P-211-02-12 online and have your registration key the same or next business day, putting 4-hour hardware delivery coverage in place ahead of schedule.

How does 4-Hour Hardware Priority RMA differ from Next Calendar Day?

Next Calendar Day (210 series) targets replacement delivery by the following calendar day. The 4-Hour Hardware tier (211 series) targets delivery within 4 hours of the approved RMA case, meaning the replacement arrives the same day. The 4-Hour tier is more expensive but appropriate for environments where a same-day switch outage creates significant operational or financial impact.

Does FC-10-F108P-211-02-12 include on-site installation support?

No. This SKU covers hardware delivery within 4 hours. An on-site engineer is not included. If your site requires Fortinet to dispatch an engineer to perform the physical swap, the 4-Hour Hardware and Onsite Engineer Priority RMA (FC-10-F108P-212 series) includes that service.

Does Priority RMA replace my FortiCare contract?

No. Priority RMA is an add-on that works on top of FortiCare Premium or Elite. FortiCare Essential customers are not eligible. Both the base FortiCare contract and the Priority RMA add-on must be active on the same FS-108F-POE serial number for the 4-hour replacement guarantee to apply.

Is this service available outside Canada?

The contract license itself is available worldwide and delivered electronically. Physical 4-hour hardware delivery depends on Fortinet’s regional logistics coverage, which varies by location. DataCenter360.ca recommends confirming regional service availability before ordering if your FS-108F-POE is deployed outside major urban areas or outside North America.

Can I upgrade from 1-year to a longer term mid-contract?

You can purchase a new longer-term contract to overlap or renew when the 1-year term expires. Fortinet support terms are generally not extended mid-contract but can be renewed or purchased for additional terms at any point. DataCenter360.ca can provide renewal SKUs and assist with co-terming support contracts to align expiry dates.
