Product Details
The Windows Server 2025 Device CAL (Client Access License) permits a specific device—rather than a user—to access the services and resources of a Windows Server 2025 instance.
Key Details
-
License Type: Perpetual Device CAL, sold separately from the Windows Server operating system.
-
Scope of Access:
-
Authorizes a single device to access server capabilities such as file sharing, printing, Active Directory, and other network services.
-
Allows multiple users to access server features through the licensed device.
-
-
Use Case Fit:
-
Ideal for environments where several individuals share the same device—such as kiosks, shared terminals, reception desks, libraries, or manufacturing station terminals.
-
-
Licensing Context:
-
Required in addition to the Windows Server 2025 Standard or Datacenter edition itself.
-
Provides legal access to server functionalities but does not include server software.
-
Device CALs, once assigned, allow a device to connect to any edition of Windows Server 2025 or earlier versions.
-
-
Delivery & Format:
-
Available through digital delivery as a perpetual business or volume-license product.
-
Offered individually or in multi-pack bundles (e.g., 5-device packs).
-
-
Compatibility & Licensing Framework:
-
Aligned with the cores-plus-CAL licensing model—Windows Server software is licensed per physical cores, plus the required CALs for device access.
-
Not interchangeable with User CALs and suitable only where shared-device access is the need.
-
Key Benefits
-
Cost-efficient for shared environments : One device CAL covers the machine, no matter how many different users access it—perfect for shift-based or shared workstation setups.
-
Simple licensing model : Assign access by device instead of by individual—great for common-use systems and reduces management overhead.
-
Perpetual investment : This licence is valid indefinitely for Windows Server 2025 and earlier versions—no renewal costs for the designated device.
-
Plug-and-play readiness : Purchase Device CALs in bulk (e.g., five-device packs) to quickly scale and equip shared workstations with secure server access.
-
Legal compliance : Ensure every shared device accessing server resources is properly licensed—critical for audit readiness and governance.
-
Targeted procurement : If you’re preparing to buy Windows Server 2025 Device CAL licence, this enables precise licensing aligned with shared-device use cases.
