Microsoft Windows Server – 1 RDS User CAL (w/ Software Assurance)

License your deployments with Client Access Licenses (CALs).

• Securely connect remote users
• Users can get access from managed or unmanaged devices
• Connect to session-based or virtual-machine based desktops
• Use datacenter apps within corporate networks or from the internet

Each user or device that accesses a licensed Windows Server requires a Windows Server Client Access License (CAL) or a Windows Server and a Remote Desktop Services (RDS) CAL.

User CALs

With the User CAL, you purchase a CAL for every user who accesses the server to use services such as file storage or printing, regardless of the number of devices they use for that access.
