Authorized Partner for United States (US)Support contracts that expire mid-deployment leave a window where the hardware is still in service but the fast-replacement guarantee is gone. For PoE access-layer switches in busy environments, that window can be the most disruptive possible time for a failure. The Fortinet FortiSwitch-108F-POE 4-Hour Hardware Priority RMA 3-Year (FC-10-F108P-211-02-36) closes that window for 36 months: one contract covers the FS-108F-POE for three years with the same 4-hour hardware delivery guarantee active throughout, no annual renewal required.
This is a Priority RMA add-on for the FortiSwitch-108F-POE, requiring an active FortiCare Premium or Elite base contract. When an RMA case is opened and approved, Fortinet targets delivery of a replacement unit within 4 hours. The 3-year term means that guarantee stays in place for three consecutive years. The FS-108F-POE is a 16-port GE PoE switch with 8 PoE+ and 8 PoE ports — suitable for access-layer deployments powering IP phones, APs, and cameras. A switch in that role running without fast-replacement coverage is an uncontrolled risk for any connected devices that cannot tolerate extended outages.
Three-year Priority RMA makes practical sense when the switch is expected to serve for that full duration without a hardware refresh. Managed service providers with per-device SLA commitments benefit from pre-purchased multi-year support that matches the service agreement term. Organizations standardizing on FortiSwitch for their access layer can co-term all FS-108F-POE units to a single renewal date, simplifying annual support reviews. The 3-year commitment also typically offers better per-year economics than purchasing three consecutive 1-year terms.
FC-10-F108P-211-02-36 is delivered electronically as a registration key. DataCenter360.ca processes and sends the key typically within one business day. Registration in the Fortinet Support portal attaches the 36-month Priority RMA add-on to your FS-108F-POE serial number immediately. No hardware ships at activation. The license is available worldwide.
Priority RMA requires FortiCare Premium or Elite as the base. The table below shows the key differences across FortiCare tiers before the Priority RMA add-on:
| 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 | — | ✓ | ✓ |
This is the 3-year (36-month) term for 4-Hour Hardware Priority RMA on the FortiSwitch-108F-POE. The 1-year and 5-year terms are also available if your procurement cycle is shorter or longer. At the end of the 3-year term, renewal SKUs follow the same FC-10-F108P-211-02-xx pattern. Fortinet Support portal sends reminders ahead of expiry.
DataCenter360.ca holds authorizations to sell and register FortiSwitch RMA and FortiCare contracts across all FortiSwitch platforms. For the FS-108F-POE, we verify base FortiCare coverage and serial-number eligibility before any support order is processed. Order the FC-10-F108P-211-02-36 online and have three years of 4-hour hardware replacement coverage registered on your switch by the next business day.
The 3-year term eliminates two annual renewal cycles, reduces the risk of coverage gaps from missed renewals, and typically costs less per year than purchasing three separate 1-year contracts. If the FortiSwitch-108F-POE is expected to run for three or more years without replacement, the 3-year term is the lower-friction option.
No. The 211 series (FC-10-F108P-211-02-36) covers hardware delivery within 4 hours. An on-site engineer to perform the swap is not included. For sites without local IT staff available to handle a switch replacement, the 212 series (4-Hour Hardware and Onsite Engineer) adds that resource.
FortiCare Premium or Elite. Priority RMA add-ons are not available with FortiCare Essential. Both the base FortiCare and the Priority RMA add-on must be active and co-terminus on the same FS-108F-POE serial number for the 4-hour delivery guarantee to be in effect.
Priority RMA services cover calendar days including weekends and public holidays in Fortinet’s covered regions. However, actual delivery windows depend on regional logistics and parts depot availability. Confirm coverage for your specific location with Fortinet or DataCenter360.ca if weekend delivery is critical to your SLA.
The license is delivered electronically and the contract covers worldwide deployments. Physical 4-hour hardware delivery availability varies by country. DataCenter360.ca can assist in confirming regional coverage before purchase to ensure the service level aligns with your location requirements.
