Adder AIMLIC-UPG-48-UNL – AIM Upgrade License, 48 to Unlimited Endpoints

Product Overview

The Adder AIMLIC-UPG-48-UNL is an AIM license upgrade that takes an existing ADDERLink INFINITY Manager (ASP-001) from a 48-endpoint license to unlimited endpoints on a single primary server. For integrators and IT managers scaling an IP KVM matrix beyond mid-size deployments, this upgrade removes endpoint capacity planning from the equation entirely. It is delivered as an electronic software license applied directly to the AIM server, so expanding the KVM-over-IP matrix requires no additional hardware, no downtime window for rack work, and no recabling. The result is a single management platform that can route any user station to any connected computer across the entire facility.

Product Description

As ADDERLink INFINITY deployments grow, license tiers become the gating factor long before network capacity does. A 48-endpoint AIM license that comfortably served a control room or post-production suite at commissioning can be fully consumed within a refresh cycle as transmitters and receivers are added. The AIMLIC-UPG-48-UNL resolves this permanently: one upgrade, unlimited ADDERLink INFINITY endpoints under a single primary AIM server.

The AIM platform transforms ALIF extender endpoints into a high-performance IP KVM matrix running over standard IP networks. Operators can switch any user station to any connected computer, share computers co-operatively between users, and multicast video to multiple receivers without compromising video quality or control responsiveness. Because the license is a digital key applied to the existing ASP-001 management server, installation is a configuration task rather than a hardware project — the upgrade can be scheduled during normal operations.

For system designers, an unlimited license simplifies commercial deployment planning across phased projects: endpoint counts can change between design and installation without triggering another procurement cycle. Note that this SKU covers the primary AIM server only. If your architecture includes a backup/failover AIM appliance, a "-BCK" license such as the AIMLIC-288-BCK covers both units, or see the full Adder Technology collection for the matching tier.

Key Features

• Unlimited Endpoint Capacity — Upgrades an existing 48-endpoint AIM license to unlimited ADDERLink INFINITY transmitters and receivers on the primary server.
• Electronic License Delivery — Supplied as a software license key applied to the AIM server, with no additional hardware required.
• Full IP KVM Matrix Routing — AIM routes any user station to any connected computer across a standard IP network.
• Co-operative Sharing — Multiple operators can share access to the same computer for collaborative workflows.
• Video Multicasting — Distributes video to multiple receivers without compromising video quality or control.
• Zero-Downtime Expansion — Applying the license is a configuration step, not a rack-mount installation, so existing operations continue uninterrupted.
• Future-Proof Scaling — Removes license tiers from growth planning; add endpoints as projects expand without further upgrades.
• Standard IP Network Operation — Runs the KVM matrix over existing 1GbE infrastructure managed by the ASP-001 server's dual network interfaces.

Typical Applications

• Broadcast studios scaling production and master control rooms beyond 48 KVM endpoints
• Government spaces consolidating secure operator positions across departments
• Commercial meeting spaces and campuses with distributed computer rooms serving many user stations
• Training rooms where instructor and student stations connect to a shared pool of computers
• Auditoriums and multi-purpose rooms fed from centralized equipment rooms over the IP KVM matrix

Technical Specifications

Frequently Asked Questions

Is this compatible with my existing ADDERLink INFINITY Manager?

Yes. The AIMLIC-UPG-48-UNL applies to the ADDERLink INFINITY Manager hardware appliance (ASP-001) and requires a current 48-endpoint license on that server as the upgrade baseline.

Does this license cover a backup AIM server?

No. This SKU licenses the primary AIM server only. Deployments with a backup/failover AIM appliance should use a "-BCK" license tier, which covers both the primary and backup units.

How is the license installed?

The license is delivered electronically as a digital key and applied to the AIM server through its management interface. No hardware changes, rack work, or recabling are required.

Will applying the upgrade interrupt my KVM matrix?

License application is a configuration task on the AIM server. It can typically be scheduled without disrupting connected ADDERLink INFINITY endpoints, making it suitable for 24/7 control room environments.

Which endpoints count against the license?

ADDERLink INFINITY series transmitters and receivers managed by the AIM server count as endpoints. With this upgrade applied, there is no upper limit on managed endpoints.

Can Creation Networks help with AV system integration?

Yes. Creation Networks supports commercial AV integrators, IT teams, and system designers with product selection and licensing guidance across the Adder Technology line. Contact us before ordering if you need help matching the license tier to your deployment.
