Windows Server 2016 Device CAL

Windows Server 2016 Device CAL – efficient, device-based access in your business. Get yours now.

With the Windows Server 2016 Device CAL, you get the access licence you need for a specific device in your Windows Server environment. At Software-Dealz, you receive legally compliant licences from trustworthy sources. After your purchase, we send you all licence documents instantly by email, including clear notes on activation and documentation. Our support team helps you personally and, if you wish, via TeamViewer. Pay conveniently – for example with purchase on invoice.

The Device CAL (Client Access License) entitles exactly one device (e.g. PC, thin client, terminal) to access the services of a Windows Server 2016 – regardless of who uses that device. This is particularly practical in shift operations and with shared workstations.

• Perpetual licence: buy once, use permanently – no subscription

Benefits & value

With a Device CAL, you license access to your Windows Server 2016 per device. The model pays off wherever several people use the same device – for example at the front office, in production, in the warehouse or in training rooms. In contrast to the User CAL, which licenses a single user, the Device CAL is often the more economical choice for shared devices.

Software-Dealz offers you a safe shopping experience: you receive traceable, legally compliant licence documents and fast delivery by email. Our experts advise you on questions about the CAL model and correct documentation – from selection to audit records.

Compatibility & licence notes

• Server + CAL model: For Windows Server 2016, you need CALs for all accessing users or devices in addition to the server licence.
• Device CAL: This licence entitles exactly one device to access Windows Server 2016 services.
• Version link: CALs should match the server version in use. If in doubt, check the Microsoft requirements on versions and possible downgrade/upgrade scenarios.
• Editions: The CAL requirements apply regardless of Standard, Datacenter or Essentials; please check edition-specific details in advance.
• RDS/Terminal Services: Additional RDS CALs are required for Remote Desktop Services (to be licensed separately).
• No installation: CALs are rights of use; as a rule, no software is installed on the client.

Note: This Device CAL is designed for device-based access. If many employees work on the move or often change devices, the User CAL may be more suitable.
