Microsoft R18-06430 Windows Server 2022 Device CAL 5-Pack

The Microsoft R18-06430 Windows Server 2022 Device CAL 5-Pack provides Client Access Licenses for five devices to legally connect to and use services hosted on Windows Server 2022 Standard or Datacenter editions. In Microsoft's licensing model, every device or user that accesses a Windows Server installation requires a CAL in addition to the server license itself. Device CALs are the appropriate choice when a specific machine — such as a shared workstation, point-of-sale terminal, or kiosk — is used by multiple people, since the license covers the hardware rather than individual users.

These CALs are backward compatible, granting access not only to Windows Server 2022 but also to Windows Server 2019 and all prior versions. This makes them suitable for organizations running mixed server environments during phased upgrades. As genuine Microsoft licenses, they ensure full compliance with Microsoft's licensing terms and maintain eligibility for official Microsoft support and updates. The 5-pack format offers a practical increment for small to mid-sized deployments or for adding devices to an existing licensed environment.
