Product Overview If your team connects to a Windows Server 2016 Remote Desktop Session Host, every user or device doing so needs its own Windows Server 2016 RDS CAL — that’s just how Microsoft licensing works. You have two options to choose from: a Windows Server 2016 RDS User CAL, which follows a person across all their devices, or a Windows Server 2016 RDS Device CAL, which covers a specific machine for any number of users. Either way, you stay properly licensed and your RDS setup keeps running without interruption. You might also see this referred to as a Windows Server 2016 Terminal Services CAL — that’s just the older name for the same license. The Remote Desktop Services 2016 CAL is what lets your workforce securely reach their applications and desktops from wherever they’re working. Server 2016 is still widely deployed, still receiving security updates, and still a solid platform. What Is a Remote Desktop Services 2016 CAL? Think of it in two layers. A regular Windows Server CAL covers access to the server itself. A Remote Desktop Services 2016 License — also called an RDS Client Access License Windows Server 2016 or Windows Server 2016 RDP CAL — is the additional license that covers the Remote Desktop Session Host role specifically. You need both. Without the right Windows Server 2016 Remote Desktop CAL in place, remote connections only work during a 120-day grace period, then they stop. It’s a separate requirement, not a replacement for your standard Server CAL. User CAL vs Device CAL: RDS 2016 The User CAL vs Device CAL RDS 2016 decision usually comes down to one question: do you have more users or more devices? Get that answer right and you’ll almost always end up with the more cost-effective choice.
