Adder AIMLIC-UPG-48-288 – 48 to 288 Endpoint Upgrade

Product Overview

The Adder AIMLIC-UPG-48-288 is an AIM license upgrade that expands a primary ADDERLink INFINITY Manager (AIM) server from 48 endpoints to 288 endpoints. It is built for KVM-over-IP deployments undergoing major expansion, where the original 48-endpoint license no longer fits the size of the IP KVM matrix. The upgrade is delivered electronically as a license key applied to the existing AIM server, so no hardware changes are involved. After application, up to 288 ADDERLink INFINITY extender endpoints can be managed from the same server.

Product Description

The ADDERLink INFINITY Manager ASP-001 transforms ADDERLink INFINITY (ALIF) extender endpoints into a high-performance IP KVM matrix over standard IP networks. The base server ships licensed for 24 endpoints, with AIMLIC licenses expanding capacity through 48, 96, 192, and 288 tiers up to unlimited. This UPG SKU moves an existing 48-endpoint license directly to the 288-endpoint tier in one purchase, a six-fold increase that suits facility consolidations and large phased rollouts.

Under AIM management, any user station can be routed to any connected computer, multiple users can co-operatively share machines, and video can be multicast to many destinations without compromising video quality or control. These capabilities scale with the license tier, so the same operational model carries from 48 endpoints to 288.

The AIM server occupies 1U of rack space and provides dual network interfaces (2× SFP + 1× RJ45, 1GbE) that can be routed independently or teamed. This upgrade covers the primary AIM server only; deployments with a backup/failover AIM unit should select the corresponding "-BCK" license. If growth beyond 288 is foreseeable, the unlimited license tier is also available, and supporting ALIF hardware can be found in the Adder Technology collection.

Key Features

• 48 to 288 Endpoint Upgrade — Expands a primary AIM server six-fold in a single license purchase.
• Electronic Delivery — Supplied as a license key applied to the AIM server; no additional hardware required.
• IP KVM Matrix Routing — Any user station can be connected to any networked computer under AIM control.
• Co-operative Sharing — Multiple operators can share access to the same computer for collaboration.
• Video Multicasting — Sends video to multiple destinations simultaneously without compromising quality or control.
• 1U Server Footprint — The AIM unit fits in 1U with dual network interfaces (2× SFP + 1× RJ45, 1GbE), independently routed or teamed.
• Further Headroom Available — A later upgrade to unlimited endpoints remains available if the deployment keeps growing.

Typical Applications

• Broadcast studio expansions consolidating production and playout machines under one matrix
• Government spaces scaling secure operator-to-computer switching across departments
• Training rooms adding large numbers of stations in phased rollouts
• Commercial meeting spaces and multi-purpose rooms served from a central equipment room

Frequently Asked Questions

What must be in place before this upgrade applies?
An ADDERLink INFINITY Manager (ASP-001) currently licensed for 48 endpoints. The key raises that server's capacity to 288 endpoints.

Does this license a backup AIM server too?
No. It covers the primary AIM server only. For redundant primary plus backup deployments, choose the matching "-BCK" upgrade SKU.

How is the license delivered and installed?
Electronically, as a license key applied through the AIM server's management interface. No hardware ships with this product.

Will my current matrix configuration survive the upgrade?
Yes. The upgrade changes licensed capacity; existing channels, user permissions, and endpoint settings remain in place.

Can I go beyond 288 endpoints later?
Yes. Upgrade SKUs to the unlimited tier are available when the deployment requires further growth.
