Product description

All-fiber switching infrastructure often stays in service longer than copper-access equivalents — the 424E-Fiber fills a structural role in campus backbones that doesn’t change with annual wireless or endpoint refresh cycles. FC-10-S424I-210-02-60 covers the FortiSwitch 424E-Fiber for 5 years with Next Calendar Day Delivery Priority RMA, matching hardware protection to how these switches actually get deployed: once, for a long time.

What the 5-Year Next Calendar Day Delivery RMA Covers

The same hardware replacement terms as the shorter -210- contracts, extended across a full 5-year period. When a FortiSwitch 424E-Fiber failure is declared at any point during the contract, Fortinet ships a replacement unit by the next calendar day. Your team handles the physical swap. No on-site technician; no hardware retention option — the focus is replacement speed for self-sufficient IT teams. FortiCare Premium or Elite must be active throughout the 5-year period.

Who This Is For

The 5-year term serves infrastructure teams committed to a long deployment horizon:

  • Enterprise campus networks where fiber distribution switches are expected to run for 5+ years
  • Organizations that amortize networking infrastructure on 5-year depreciation schedules
  • IT teams that activate support contracts at deployment and prefer not to re-engage procurement annually
  • MSPs managing regulated or enterprise client networks on long-term service agreements

Activation and Delivery

FC-10-S424I-210-02-60 is an electronic contract. DataCenter360.ca delivers the activation key within 0–1 business days of purchase. Activate through the FortiCare portal against the device serial number. The 5-year term begins at activation. Valid worldwide.

5-Year Contract vs. Shorter Terms

FortiSwitch RMA service tiers for the FortiSwitch 424E-Fiber:

  • -210- Next Calendar Day Delivery: Replacement hardware ships next calendar day; self-install — this tier
  • -211- 4-Hour Hardware Delivery: Replacement hardware on-site within 4 hours; self-install
  • -212- 4-Hour Hardware and Onsite Engineer: On-site technician with hardware within 4 hours
  • -301- Secure RMA: Replacement ships; failed unit retained for on-premises destruction

The -210- tier balances cost and speed for teams that handle their own hardware swaps. If faster hardware delivery is needed, the -211- provides 4-hour delivery. If on-site labor is also required, the -212- covers both. Secure RMA (-301-) is the right path only when hardware return is prohibited by compliance policy.
