United States (US) Authorized DistributorThree years of Secure RMA coverage for the FortiSwitch-124F-FPOE gives regulated organizations a structured way to handle hardware failures without compromising security procedures. The FC-10-S124F-301-02-36 means the process for a failed switch is defined before the failure happens, not scrambled together under pressure when a device goes down.
The FC-10-S124F-301-02-36 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-301-02-36 is appropriate for organizations operating the FortiSwitch-124F-FPOE in:
A 3-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-301-02-36 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 processes require shipping the failed unit back to Fortinet or a designated depot. For organizations with data sanitization requirements or security policies that prohibit external hardware movement, Secure RMA lets the original device remain under controlled conditions for on-site destruction, while a replacement ships in parallel.
Fortinet ships a like-for-like replacement FortiSwitch-124F-FPOE unit after a qualified hardware failure is confirmed through TAC. The timing and logistics are governed by the Secure RMA service terms. The customer retains the failed unit and is responsible for its compliant destruction following internal procedures.
Generally yes. Multi-year Fortinet service contracts carry a lower effective per-year cost than equivalent 1-year terms, and they avoid the administrative overhead of two renewal cycles across three years. The FC-10-S124F-301-02-36 is a common choice for organizations with stable hardware inventories that don’t expect a refresh within three years.
Secure RMA requirements vary. Review the Fortinet FortiCare Technical Support and RMA Services datasheet for the current prerequisites. DataCenter360.ca can clarify the specific base support requirements for the FortiSwitch-124F-FPOE before you purchase this contract.
