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 | |

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 5 years term begins on the activation date.
The 5-year term is the longest available for FortiCare Premium on the FortiSwitch-T1024E. If you prefer shorter commitment cycles, 1-year and 3-year options are listed in the upsell section. FortiCare Essential is also available if you need only firmware access and web-based support without the 1-hour SLA or telephone engineer access.
DataCenter360.ca offers authorized FortiCare contracts with same-business-day electronic delivery. The 5-year Premium term (FC-10-T1E24-247-02-60) is the set-it-and-forget-it option for your FortiSwitch-T1024E: one purchase, five years of 24/7 premium support. Questions before ordering?

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.
Five years locks in the lowest per-year cost for Premium support and eliminates four renewal events over the contract period. It’s the right choice when the switch is expected to stay in production for five or more years and when simplifying vendor contract management is a priority.
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 5 years 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.
