Fortinet FortiSwitch 248E-POE Next Calendar Day Priority RMA, 3-Year (FC-10-WP248-210-02-36)

Three years of Next Calendar Day Priority RMA on the FS-248E-POE means your recovery commitment is locked in for the mid-point of the switch’s service life. FC-10-WP248-210-02-36 eliminates the annual renewal cycle and gives your support planning a predictable, multi-year horizon.

What This Service Covers

When the FS-248E-POE fails and an RMA is required, standard FortiCare ships a replacement without a guaranteed delivery date. The Next Calendar Day Priority RMA (-210-) changes that commitment: Fortinet dispatches the replacement on the following calendar day from the approved service request. Over a 3-year coverage window (FC-10-WP248-210-02-36), that guarantee is in place for every qualifying RMA event during the term.

The service attaches to an existing FortiCare Premium or Elite contract on the same device. It does not function as a standalone support agreement.

Why Choose 3-Year Coverage

A single 3-year contract reduces administrative overhead and avoids the risk of a coverage gap at renewal time. For organizations that refresh hardware on 3-to-5-year cycles, the 3-year term aligns cleanly with the device’s planned operational window. It also simplifies annual IT budget reconciliation — one known cost rather than a recurring negotiation each year.

FC-10-WP248-210-02-36 is delivered electronically. DataCenter360.ca processes orders and delivers license keys within 0 to 1 business days. Registration in Fortinet’s support portal activates the 3-year coverage term tied to the target FS-248E-POE serial number. Coverage applies worldwide.
