Five years of 4-Hour Hardware Delivery Priority RMA for the FortiSwitch 448E. If a hardware fault is confirmed through Fortinet support at any point during the 60-month term, a courier delivers a replacement unit within four hours of dispatch. Coverage applies every day of the year, including weekends and public holidays. This is an add-on to FortiCare Premium or Elite; Essential customers are not eligible.

No. This contract covers hardware delivery only. A courier brings the replacement unit within four hours; your team handles installation. For on-site engineer support, look at the 212 variant. DataCenter360.ca stocks both options across all available terms.
If Fortinet replaces the unit under this Priority RMA contract, the replacement serial number can be associated with the remaining contract term through the Fortinet Support Portal. For mid-contract serial transfers, contact Fortinet support or DataCenter360.ca for assistance.
No. Priority RMA requires an active FortiCare Premium or Elite base contract on the same device. Without it, Priority RMA cannot be activated. If your FS-448E has only FortiCare Essential, upgrade the base contract first. DataCenter360.ca sells FortiCare Premium for the FortiSwitch 448E alongside Priority RMA add-ons.
