Windows Server 2012 R2 Device CAL
Description
Microsoft Windows Server 2012 R2 Device CAL: The licence for shared computers
Choose a smart, cost-effective way to license your shared workstations with a Microsoft Windows Server 2012 R2 Device CAL. This Client Access Licence (CAL) is not software, but the official entitlement for a specific device (PC, thin client, laptop, etc.) to access your server's basic services. Once a device is licensed, any number of employees may use it. Buy your official perpetual licence from Vollversion-Software and put the perfect licensing solution in place for shift-work environments.
What is a Windows Server Device CAL?
The Device CAL is always the right choice when you have more employees than computers. The principle is "One device, many users".
- Device-based licensing: You assign the licence to a computer, not to the employees who use it.
- Ideal for shared workstations: Perfect for PCs used in shifts (production, logistics), at counters (retail, reception) or in shared areas (libraries, call centres).
- Maximum savings: When several employees share a PC, a Device CAL is significantly cheaper than buying several individual User CALs.
Licence packs for your whole infrastructure
We make licence management simple. This Device CAL is available individually and in convenient packs for 5, 10, 25 or 50 devices.
If your employees use personal laptops and several devices, the user-based Windows Server 2012 R2 User CAL is the better alternative.

Important note on licence management
Standard Windows Server CALs are not installed on the server as software. Licensing relies on trust (the "honour system"). Your proof of purchase (invoice and licence key) serves as official evidence of correct licensing in the event of an audit by Microsoft.
Frequently asked questions
Is this CAL also valid for Remote Desktop Services (terminal server)?
No. This standard Device CAL only covers basic access (files, printing). If the licensed device is to be used to access a terminal server, you also need an "RDS 2012 R2 Device CAL".
One PC in our workshop is used by 4 employees. What is the best solution?
You need exactly one Windows Server 2012 R2 Device CAL for this one PC. This is the most affordable way to license it correctly in this situation.
Where on the server is the licence key for this CAL entered?
Nowhere. Standard CALs are not registered or activated on the server itself. Your invoice and licence documents provide legal proof of licensing, which you must keep in case of an audit.
Can I also use a 2012 R2 CAL to access a server running Windows Server 2019?
No. CALs are not forward-compatible. To access a server running Server 2019, you need at least a 2019 CAL. However, with a 2012 R2 CAL you can access Server 2012 R2 and older versions.
Is a "Server 2012 CAL" also valid for access to a server running "Server 2012 R2"?
Yes, a standard "Windows Server 2012 CAL" (Device or User) is also valid for access to the "R2" version of the server.
