Do you still own a FortiSwitch 1048D? - Then take your chance to buy in now!

Technical progress requires not only the know-how of a qualified IT service provider but also the use of up-to-date hardware and software. Qualifications as well as professional solution strategies in dealing with the latest customer requirements are certainly mainly the homework of the respective IT specialists, whereby the provision of high-performance components is more the responsibility of the customer.

Why you should trade in your FortiSwitch 1048D!

The FortiSwitch 1048D served companies a few years ago as a very good and solid network component. In recent years, however, the demands on a switch have increased dramatically. IT managers found themselves in the situation of having to route larger traffic through the network and thus meet increased bandwidth requirements. Furthermore, IT infrastructures benefit from new features that often simply cannot be implemented by older devices such as the FortiSwitch 1048D in terms of performance. Often, the latest firmware updates that are not available on the end-of-sale devices also play a role.

Take the chance of a contemporary renewal of your active network component and exchange your FortiSwitch 1048D for the next generation at a reasonable price!

Fortinet FortiSwitch-1048D FortiCare Support Contract

FortiCare Premium Support

FortiCare Premium covers the same features as the former FortiCare Support. FortiCare Premium is therefore suitable for devices that require a 24x7x365 response within one hour for both critical and non-critical issues.

With FortiCare Premium Support, you get world-class vendor support for your Fortinet solutions. An ongoing FortiCare license allows you to install firmware updates for your Fortinet appliance directly from the device. Fortinet provides technical support and return merchandise (RMA) services on an appliance-by-appliance basis with FortiCare for 24x7 support and timely problem resolution. FortiCare services support the entire Fortinet Security Fabric, enabling you to resolve diverse cross-product issues with a single solution. Flexible support options help your organization maximize uptime, security, and performance based on your business needs.

On request, we can also offer you FortiCare Essentials or FortiCare Elite. The features of the respective licenses can be found in the table below.

FortiCare Essential

FortiCare Essentials is the base-level service, which is specifically suited for units that require only a limited amount of support and can accept one business day response time for both critical and non-critical issues. This service is available only for FortiGate models 8x and below and for lower-end FortiWifi units.

FortiCare Elite

FortiCare Elite Services offers extended service level agreements (SLAs) and accelerated problem resolution. This enhanced support offering provides access to a dedicated support team. Ticket handling by a team of technical experts streamlines the solution. This option also provides extended End-of-Engineering Support (EoEs) of 18 months for added flexibility and access to the new FortiCare Elite Portal. This intuitive portal provides a single, unified view of device and security health.

Is a support extension for a FortiSwitch 1048D still worthwhile at all?

We advise against a support extension at this point - the simple reason for this is that Fortinet has already set the FortiSwitch 1048D to end-of-sale status. This means that you can only purchase 1-year licence extensions and that the FortiSwitch 1048D is no longer included in new firmware releases.
