Adder AIMLIC-192-BCK – 192 Endpoint AIM License, Primary + Backup

Product Overview

The Adder AIMLIC-192-BCK is a 192-endpoint AIM software license with backup server coverage for the ADDERLink INFINITY Manager (ASP-001), designed for mission-critical IP KVM matrix deployments that cannot tolerate a single point of failure. As a "-BCK" license, it covers both the primary AIM server and a backup/failover AIM unit, so license capacity is preserved if operations fail over to the standby appliance. For control rooms and broadcast facilities running 24/7, this redundant KVM matrix license pairs capacity with continuity in a single SKU. Integrators specifying high-availability commercial KVM systems can quote one license for the entire management layer.

Product Description

The ADDERLink INFINITY Manager transforms ALIF extender endpoints into a high-performance IP KVM matrix over standard IP networks, routing any user station to any connected computer, enabling co-operative sharing of computers, and multicasting video without compromising video quality or control. The base ASP-001 AIM server ships licensed for 24 endpoints; the AIMLIC-192-BCK license raises that to 192 endpoints and extends the entitlement to a second, backup AIM appliance for failover. For 24/7 reliability, Adder's architecture supports a backup appliance plus multiple satellite appliances, and the primary and backup AIM units together occupy only a single 1U rack space — a meaningful consideration in dense equipment rooms. Each AIM appliance provides dual network interfaces (2x SFP plus 1x RJ45, 1GbE) that can be independently routed or teamed, allowing the management layer to span separate network paths for additional resilience. Because the license is delivered electronically and applied as a digital key to the AIM servers, there is no extra hardware to procure and activation can be completed during a scheduled maintenance window. If your deployment needs capacity on a primary server only, the single-server AIMLIC-192 license is the alternative. Compatible ALIF transmitters and receivers are available in the Adder Technology collection.

Key Features

• 192 Endpoint Capacity — Expands the AIM server from its base 24 endpoints to 192 ADDERLink INFINITY transmitters and receivers.
• Primary + Backup Coverage — The -BCK entitlement licenses both the primary AIM server and a backup/failover AIM unit in one purchase.
• Failover-Ready Architecture — Supports 24/7 operations with a backup appliance and multiple satellite appliances for high availability.
• Any-to-Any Matrix Routing — Routes any user station to any connected computer across the IP KVM matrix.
• Co-operative Sharing and Multicasting — Users share computers co-operatively and video is multicast without compromising quality or control.
• 1U Rack Efficiency — Primary and backup AIM units fit in a single 1U rack space.
• Dual Network Interfaces — Each AIM offers 2x SFP plus 1x RJ45 1GbE interfaces, independently routable or teamed.
• Electronic Delivery — Software license key applied to the AIM servers; no additional hardware required.

Typical Applications

• Broadcast studios requiring redundant KVM management for on-air operations
• Government spaces with high-availability requirements for secure computer access
• Commercial meeting spaces and operations centers consolidating large endpoint counts
• Training rooms with many shared user stations and pooled computers
• Auditoriums and large venues with extensive backend production systems

Frequently Asked Questions

What does the "-BCK" suffix mean?

It indicates that the license covers both the primary AIM server and a backup/failover AIM unit, so a standby appliance carries the same 192-endpoint entitlement if the primary goes offline.

Do I need two ASP-001 servers to use this license?

To take advantage of the failover coverage, yes — the deployment uses a primary AIM appliance and a backup AIM appliance. Both are licensed under this single SKU and together fit in a single 1U rack space.

How is the license installed?

It is delivered electronically as a software license key applied to the AIM servers through the administration interface. No additional hardware ships with the license.

What counts as an endpoint?

ADDERLink INFINITY series transmitters and receivers managed by AIM count toward the 192-endpoint capacity.

What if I only need a primary server license at 192 endpoints?

Specify the AIMLIC-192, which licenses 192 endpoints on a primary AIM server only.

Can the AIM network connections be made redundant too?

Each AIM appliance has dual network interfaces (2x SFP plus 1x RJ45, 1GbE) that can be independently routed or teamed, letting you design redundant network paths alongside the redundant management appliances.

Can Creation Networks help size my deployment?

Yes. Our team works with integrators, IT and facilities managers, and AV system designers to confirm endpoint counts and the correct license tier before purchase. See the full Adder Technology collection for compatible hardware.
