Microsoft Windows Server 2016 50 Device CAL is an essential component for companies that wish to use the advanced features offered by Windows Server 2016 legally and efficiently, providing server access for 50 devices. These Client Access Licenses (CALs) are required for devices to connect to Windows servers, enabling users working on those devices to access network services such as files, printers, databases, and internet communication.
50 device access licenses for Windows Server 2016 — ideal for shared workstations
Windows Server 2016 50 Device CAL is a pack of client access licenses assigned to devices. Each licensed device — desktop PC, laptop, terminal, or kiosk — can be used by any number of users to connect to Windows Server 2016 services. Device CAL is the best choice for organisations with multiple work shifts, shared workstations, or information kiosks. When you buy the 50 Device CAL pack from Licensier, you receive a cheap price, full Microsoft licensing compliance, an original license, and instant delivery.
A Client Access License (CAL) is a mandatory Microsoft license required to access Windows Server services legally. A Device CAL is assigned to a specific device — any number of users may use that device to connect to the server. It is the ideal solution for environments where multiple people use the same computers, such as shift-based production workstations, reception desks, warehouse terminals, or information kiosks. One Device CAL per workstation covers access for all employees using that device.
Each of the 50 devices can be used by an unlimited number of users to connect to the server. This is an ideal licensing model for shared workstations, shift-based teams, and kiosks.
Official Microsoft Device CAL licenses guarantee full compliance during licensing audits. Every licensed device remains fully legal regardless of the number of users.
Device CAL is more cost-effective than User CAL in environments where multiple users share one device. The 50-license pack further reduces the unit price — double savings for your business.
Device CAL licenses do not expire — this is a one-time purchase with no subscription fees. They remain valid for as long as you use a compatible Windows Server 2016 or earlier server.
Production workstations, warehouse terminals, reception desks, kiosks — wherever a device is shared, Device CAL is the most efficient licensing model.

Device CAL is more cost-effective when multiple people use the same device — for example at shift-based workstations, reception desks, warehouses, or production sites. If you have 3 shifts of 10 employees working on 10 computers, you need only 10 Device CALs instead of 30 User CALs. User CAL, on the other hand, is the better option when one employee uses multiple devices such as a laptop, tablet, and smartphone.
Device CAL is assigned to a device, but it may be transferred to another device no more frequently than once every 90 days. The exception is device failure — in that case, the transfer can be made immediately. This allows flexible license management when replacing hardware.
Windows Server 2016 CAL licenses are backward compatible — they work with Server 2016 and earlier versions (2012 R2, 2012). They are not compatible with newer server versions (2019, 2022, 2025). If you are planning a server upgrade, you should also account for the cost of new CAL licenses.
You must license every device that connects to Windows Server — desktop PCs, laptops, tablets, terminals, and kiosks. Count all devices on your network that communicate with the server in any way, even if they only print through the print server or access file shares.
A CAL license authorises a device to access all core Windows Server services: file services, print services, Active Directory, DHCP, DNS, IIS, and other server roles. It does not cover Remote Desktop Services (RDS) — additional RDS CAL licenses are required for remote desktop access.
Yes, User CAL and Device CAL can be used within the same organisation, but you should apply one model consistently on a given licensing server. Microsoft recommends choosing one model to simplify management, although technically both types can coexist within the same infrastructure.
Yes, all licenses at Licensier are original Microsoft products with official activation keys. Every purchase is documented with a VAT invoice. The keys are verified by Microsoft licensing systems, which guarantees legality and compliance with the terms of use.
