A FortiSwitch 224D-FPOE installed in a stable campus access or branch IDF closet can easily remain in service for a full 5-year support cycle. FC-10-W0226-314-02-60 covers that entire horizon with one renewal purchase, keeping the FS-224D-FPOE under active FortiCare Essential coverage from activation through year five. This is a renewal-only contract and is not available with an initial hardware purchase.
FortiCare Essential for the FS-224D-FPOE delivers Fortinet’s baseline support entitlements across the full 5-year term. Included throughout are firmware updates and security patches, access to Fortinet’s online knowledge base and documentation library, and asset lifecycle management via the FortiCare portal. Hardware RMA is provided on a return-and-replace basis: Fortinet ships a replacement unit after receiving the failed FS-224D-FPOE. Critical-issue response is next business day for the entire contract period. This tier does not include telephone support, advance hardware replacement, or access to the Elite monitoring portal.
Organizations with FS-224D-FPOE switches in fixed infrastructure roles, where the hardware is not expected to be relocated or replaced within five years, are the primary buyers for this contract. IT teams that handle FortiSwitch troubleshooting in-house, operate within next-business-day response tolerances, and want to eliminate recurring annual renewal tasks benefit most from a 5-year commitment. This is a renewal-only SKU; the FS-224D-FPOE must already hold or have recently held an active FortiCare contract before this term is applied.
Fortinet delivers the license key by email after the order is processed, typically within one business day. No physical product ships. Register the key in FortiCloud at support.fortinet.com or through the FortiLink-managed switch asset in FortiGate. The 60-month term begins on activation and applies globally to wherever your FS-224D-FPOE is installed. Store the license key and confirmation email in your asset records for future renewal planning.
Essential provides firmware currency and return-and-replace RMA for the entire 5-year term. Premium and Elite add telephone TAC access and advance replacement, where a unit ships to you before the failed switch is returned. For teams managing the FS-224D-FPOE through FortiLink with in-house expertise and no telephone SLA requirement, Essential covers the necessary obligations. If your environment demands faster hardware swap times or direct Fortinet phone access, evaluate FortiCare Premium before committing to a 5-year Essential term.
