United States (US) Authorized DistributorWhen the FortiSwitch-T1024E goes down, every server and storage device on that top-of-rack segment
goes dark with it. 1-Year FortiCare Premium (FC-10-T1E24-247-02-12) keeps a Fortinet engineer one call away,
any hour of the day, with a 1-hour critical-issue response SLA and advanced hardware replacement
already authorized before you hang up the phone.

FortiCare Premium on the FortiSwitch-T1024E activates four support capabilities Fortinet’s Essential tier
does not include:
Firmware updates, security advisories, and portal tools are included at all FortiCare tiers.
The table below shows where Premium sits relative to Essential and Elite:
| Essential | Premium | Elite | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Critical-issue response | Next business day | 1-hour SLA | 1-hour SLA |
| Telephone support (24×7) | — | ✓ | ✓ |
| Advanced hardware replacement | — | ✓ | ✓ |
| Priority RMA add-on eligibility | — | ✓ | ✓ |
| Firmware, tools & portal access | ✓ | ✓ | ✓ |
| Extended LTS support & Elite monitoring portal | — | — | — |
Any team running the FortiSwitch-T1024E as an active top-of-rack or distribution layer switch should
consider FortiCare Premium before the unit goes into production. At 880 Gbps of switching
capacity with ~1µs latency, this switch sits in a critical path — a fault without advance
replacement authorization means unplanned downtime. Data centers, colocation providers,
and enterprise IT teams that can’t afford a next-week resolution timeline are the natural fit.
This is an electronic contract. After purchase, you receive an entitlement key via email —
typically within one business day. Register it in the Fortinet Support Portal
(support.fortinet.com), bind it to your FortiSwitch-T1024E’s serial number, and coverage is active.
No hardware shipment, no customs, no installation. The 1-year term begins on the activation date.
If a 1-year contract is too short for your planning cycle, the same FortiCare Premium
coverage is available in 3-year and 5-year terms. Both appear in this product’s upsell section.
Alternatively, if 24/7 telephone support is not required and you need only web-portal access
and firmware updates, FortiCare Essential (T1E24 prefix, -314- SKUs) is available at a lower price point.
DataCenter360.ca is a Fortinet Select Partner and authorized reseller of FortiSwitch
FortiCare contracts. This 1-year Premium contract (FC-10-T1E24-247-02-12) is delivered electronically
within one business day of your order. No shipping, no waiting — activation instructions
go straight to your inbox.
FortiCare Premium adds 24/7 telephone support, a 1-hour critical-issue response SLA,
and advanced hardware replacement to the base FortiCare capabilities. Firmware updates,
security advisories, and the Fortinet Support Portal are available at all tiers.
It depends on your procurement cycle. A 1-year term is the lowest upfront commitment and
gives you flexibility if you plan to refresh hardware within 12 months. If the switch is
staying in production for 3 or more years, the 3-year or 5-year term is typically more
cost-effective per year and reduces renewal overhead.
After your order is processed, you receive an entitlement key by email, normally within
one business day. Log in to support.fortinet.com, register the key against your
FortiSwitch-T1024E’s serial number, and the 1-year coverage period starts immediately.
No physical product ships.
Yes. FortiCare Premium makes the T1024E eligible for optional Priority RMA add-ons —
either 4-hour hardware delivery (FC-10-T1E24-211) or 4-hour hardware plus onsite engineer
(FC-10-T1E24-212). These are separate SKUs and require an active Premium contract.
Essential provides web-based support access, firmware downloads, and security advisories.
Premium adds 24/7 telephone access to a Fortinet engineer, a 1-hour response SLA for
critical issues, and advanced hardware replacement (ship-first logistics).
For switches in production environments, Premium is the standard recommendation.
