Office Communications Server External Connector License - Standard (Includes Software Assurance)

This standard external connector (EC) license allows any number of external users or devices to access a single installation of Office Communications Server or Live Communications Server.

Generally, an external user is defined as anyone who is not an employee of the organization. For example, external users can include clients, suppliers, and alumni of the organization. External users do not include independent contractors, agents, service providers, or other persons providing services to or on behalf of the organization holding the license.
The EC license may not be used as a means of reselling or repackaging Communications Server as a hosted service.

For web conferencing, voice over IP, and application sharing capabilities, an enterprise EC license is required. The enterprise EC license is additive and must be used in conjunction with a standard EC license.

Device CALs and user CALs are also available for internal use. A device CAL authorizes one computer to access the server, regardless of the number of users. A user CAL authorizes one user to access the server on any number of devices.

Note: This license does not require media.
