United States (US) Authorized DistributorStandard hardware return channels aren’t an option for every organization. When the FortiSwitch-124F-FPOE operates in a classified, regulated, or high-security environment, the FC-10-S124F-301-02-12 provides Secure RMA coverage: a replacement unit ships while the original is retained and securely destroyed on-site, keeping sensitive data and the device itself within the controlled perimeter.
The FC-10-S124F-301-02-12 provides Secure RMA coverage for the FortiSwitch-124F-FPOE. When a covered hardware failure is confirmed through Fortinet TAC, Fortinet ships a replacement unit to the registered site. The critical difference from standard RMA: the original failed device stays with the customer. It does not go back to Fortinet. The customer handles secure disposal according to their internal data destruction procedures.
This process is specifically designed for environments where networking hardware cannot be returned through standard commercial logistics channels due to security classification, regulatory requirements, or data protection policy.
The FC-10-S124F-301-02-12 is appropriate for organizations operating the FortiSwitch-124F-FPOE in:
A 1-Year coverage period supports organizations that plan their hardware lifecycle and compliance posture over a defined window rather than renewing annually.
The FC-10-S124F-301-02-12 is delivered electronically. After purchase through DataCenter360.ca, the license is typically available within one business day and is registered to the FortiSwitch-124F-FPOE serial number on your Fortinet support account. Review the Fortinet FortiCare Technical Support and RMA Services datasheet for current Secure RMA prerequisites and activation requirements.
The Secure RMA service fits alongside Fortinet’s standard support tiers. The following table shows how FortiCare levels compare in terms of RMA and support features, providing context for where hardware-retention-focused services fit:
| Feature | 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 | — | ✓ | ✓ |
If your organization can return hardware through standard channels, the Priority RMA options (FC-10-S124F-210/211/212-02-XX) provide faster response SLAs with advance replacement and optional onsite engineer service. Secure RMA trades the speed optimization for the security requirement: hardware stays on-site. Choose Secure RMA only when your policy or regulations require it; otherwise, Priority RMA or standard FortiCare Premium delivers equivalent replacement with a faster turn.

Standard RMA services require the failed unit to be returned to Fortinet. Secure RMA is designed for environments where the hardware cannot leave the premises, such as classified government networks or regulated financial infrastructure. Under Secure RMA, Fortinet ships a replacement unit while the original is retained by the customer for certified on-site destruction. No sensitive data-bearing device leaves your facility.
Organizations operating FortiSwitch-124F-FPOE units in classified, government, defense, or highly regulated commercial environments where hardware disposal must follow specific protocols. If your security policy prohibits returning networking equipment to third parties, Secure RMA is the appropriate service tier.
Secure RMA response times vary from the standard Priority RMA tiers and are governed by the terms of the Fortinet service contract. For specific SLA commitments under the Secure RMA program, review the Fortinet FortiCare Technical Support datasheet or contact DataCenter360.ca for current specifications.
A 1-year term keeps the annual cost lower and allows flexibility if your hardware refresh cycle is short. If the FortiSwitch-124F-FPOE is expected to remain in service for several years, the 3-year (FC-10-S124F-301-02-36) or 5-year (FC-10-S124F-301-02-60) options reduce renewal overhead and often cost less per year.
Yes. The FC-10-S124F-301-02-12 is a worldwide service, delivered electronically to your Fortinet support account. Physical replacement dispatch is coordinated by Fortinet based on device registration location. DataCenter360.ca serves international customers and can assist with purchase and activation.
