Authorized Partner for United States (US)Five years of predictable hardware lifecycle coverage for regulated environments. The FS-224E Secure RMA service (FC-10-W0300-301-02-60) ties long-term FortiSwitch replacement workflows to a chain-of-custody process, so security teams know exactly what happens to retired units containing sensitive configurations or port-level data.
The -301- Secure RMA add-on extends FortiCare Premium or Elite support with a defined secure hardware return process. When a FS-224E unit fails and must be replaced, Fortinet’s Secure RMA program ensures:
This service is mandatory for organizations in regulated industries such as government, defense, financial services, or healthcare, where decommissioned networking hardware cannot simply be returned through standard channels.
Any organization deploying the FS-224E in environments where data handling is governed by compliance frameworks (NIST, ISO 27001, PIPEDA, CMMC) should consider Secure RMA. The typical profile: a network team that replaces switches on a defined lifecycle and needs the paperwork to prove it. Standard RMA returns defective units; Secure RMA returns them with documentation.
This is a software entitlement delivered electronically. After purchase, DataCenter360.ca sends your license key within 0 to 1 business days. You activate it through the Fortinet Support portal against your registered FS-224E serial number. No physical shipment. The 5-year term begins from the activation date, not the purchase date.
The table below shows how RMA coverage differs across FortiCare tiers. Secure RMA is an add-on to Premium or Elite, not a standalone tier.

Yes. The FC-10-W0300-301-02-60 is an add-on service that requires FortiCare Premium or FortiCare Elite on the same FS-224E unit. It cannot be purchased as a standalone replacement for base FortiCare support.
Standard Priority RMA focuses on delivery speed (next calendar day or 4-hour). Secure RMA adds a documented, auditable decommissioning process for the returned unit, including a certificate of data destruction. It is designed for environments where the returned hardware may contain sensitive configuration data.
Secure RMA and Priority RMA (-210-, -211-, -212-) are separate add-on services. In most cases, they are purchased independently rather than stacked. Contact your FortiCare account team or DataCenter360.ca to confirm which combination fits your support agreement.
Yes. FortiCare Secure RMA (FC-10-W0300-301-02-60) is available worldwide and delivered electronically. DataCenter360.ca is an authorized Fortinet partner serving customers in any country. Delivery is handled through the Fortinet Support portal, not physical mail.
The subscription term starts from your activation date on the Fortinet Support portal. You register the license key against your FS-224E serial number, and coverage begins at that point. Purchasing early does not shorten your coverage window.
