United States (US) Authorized DistributorFive-year infrastructure programs are common in power utilities, transportation, and industrial process environments where capital equipment budgets are approved in long cycles. FC-10-R24FP-247-02-60 covers the FortiSwitchRugged-424F-POE with FortiCare Premium for five years from a single purchase: five years of 24×7 TAC, advance hardware replacement, and firmware entitlement — no annual renewal decisions, no coverage gaps between terms.
The coverage under FC-10-R24FP-247-02-60 is consistent across the full 5-year term. For the FortiSwitchRugged-424F-POE, this includes:
FC-10-R24FP-247-02-60 provides FortiCare Premium for the FortiSwitchRugged-424F-POE. Below is how the tiers compare:
| 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 | — | — | — |
The 5-year term is the right fit when the FortiSwitchRugged-424F-POE is specced into a capital project with a defined lifecycle: substations, rail-side control networks, and industrial automation upgrades where the switching infrastructure is expected to run for the project’s full term. It is also the practical choice for procurement teams that manage support contracts in batches tied to fiscal years rather than individual renewal dates. Purchasing 5-year coverage at commissioning eliminates the risk of lapsed contracts during the project’s operational window.
FC-10-R24FP-247-02-60 is delivered electronically. After purchase, DataCenter360.ca sends the registration key to your billing email within 0-1 business days. Register the key at support.fortinet.com against the FortiSwitchRugged-424F-POE serial number. The 5-year term starts from the registration date. No hardware ships as part of this order. Registering at or near the hardware commissioning date ensures the contract covers the actual operational period.
A 5-year FortiCare Premium contract is a long-term commitment to a specific device. DataCenter360.ca, as a Fortinet Select Partner, processes and registers these contracts through the official channel so the entitlement record in Fortinet’s system is accurate from day one. For project teams purchasing support for multiple FortiSwitchRugged units under the same capital budget, we can help align contract terms and confirm SKUs before the order is placed.
FC-10-R24FP-247-02-60 provides five years of 24×7 TAC phone support, 1-hour P1 critical-issue response, advanced hardware replacement, firmware updates, security advisories, and portal access. The entitlements are consistent across all five years — no step-downs or coverage changes mid-term.
Yes. FC-10-R24FP-247-02-60 is a worldwide license. DataCenter360.ca delivers the registration key electronically to any country, and FortiCare Premium covers the FortiSwitchRugged-424F-POE at any global deployment location for the full 5-year term.
Multi-year contracts generally carry a lower effective per-year cost compared to purchasing five successive 1-year contracts, and they eliminate annual renewal overhead. For infrastructure in production for the full 5 years, the 5-year SKU is usually the most cost-effective path. Contact DataCenter360.ca to compare specific pricing across the available terms.
Fortinet support contracts are tied to a specific device serial number. If the hardware is replaced under advance replacement (included in this contract), Fortinet typically transfers the support entitlement to the replacement unit’s serial number through the TAC case process. Contact Fortinet TAC directly when a swap occurs to confirm the contract is re-linked correctly.
Both tiers provide 24×7 telephone support and advanced hardware replacement. Elite adds a 15-minute P1 response target versus Premium’s 1-hour SLA. The extended LTS and Elite monitoring portal features are FortiGate-platform specific and do not apply to the FortiSwitchRugged series. For most OT deployments, Premium’s 1-hour critical response is sufficient; Elite suits situations where the SLA must meet stricter contractual requirements.
