Fortinet FortiSwitch-124G-FPOE FortiCare Premium, 5-Year (FC-10-S24GF-247-02-60)

A PoE access switch that powers a floor of APs, IP phones, and cameras is not the kind of hardware you leave unsupported. FC-10-S24GF-247-02-60 is a 5-year FortiCare Premium contract for the FortiSwitch-124G-FPOE. From the moment it activates, Fortinet TAC is available around the clock with a 1-hour response SLA for Priority 1 issues, and next-business-day hardware replacement is in place should the unit fail. Five years, no renewal gaps, consistent PoE uptime coverage throughout.

What FortiCare Premium Covers

FortiCare Premium includes 24×7 telephone and web access to Fortinet TAC, a 1-hour SLA for P1 critical issues, and next-business-day hardware replacement. Firmware updates and access to the Fortinet support portal are included for the full 5-year term. This contract applies to the specific FS-124G-FPOE unit it is registered against in the Fortinet Support Portal.

FC-10-S24GF-247-02-60 is a FortiCare Premium contract. For FortiSwitch products, the tier breakdown looks like this:

Who Needs 5 Years of Coverage

Long-term FortiCare Premium suits environments where the FortiSwitch-124G-FPOE is expected to serve through a full infrastructure lifecycle without a hardware refresh. Education campuses, retail locations, healthcare facilities, and manufacturing floors that standardize on long-lived switching infrastructure benefit most. Buying 5-year coverage at procurement locks in the per-year rate before renewal price increases, and removes renewal scheduling from the annual IT calendar for the duration of the contract.

Activation and Electronic Delivery

This is a software entitlement with no physical component. DataCenter360.ca delivers the Fortinet contract registration key electronically, typically within 0 to 1 business days. Registration is completed at support.fortinet.com using the FortiSwitch-124G-FPOE serial number. The 5-year term begins on the date set during activation.

5 Years vs. Shorter Terms

The 1-year (FC-10-S24GF-247-02-12) and 3-year (FC-10-S24GF-247-02-36) variants of this contract offer lower upfront cost and shorter commitments. The 5-year variant has the lowest per-year rate and eliminates all renewal steps for the switch’s operational lifespan. For organizations with defined 5-year CapEx cycles or infrastructure that is planned to run without refresh for a full half-decade, FC-10-S24GF-247-02-60 is the straightforward choice.
