{"product_id":"extron-linklicense-1-additional-vcp-upgrade","title":"Extron LinkLicense 1 Additional VCP Upgrade","description":"\u003ch2\u003eProduct Overview\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Extron LinkLicense 1 Additional VCP Upgrade adds one additional IPCP Pro xi virtual control processor to an Extron VCA 100 Virtual Control Appliance. This VCA 100 virtual control processor license lets integrators scale a centralized control system by one room without adding another physical control processor to the rack.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eProduct Description\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe VCA 100 Virtual Control Appliance runs multiple IPCP Pro xi virtual control processors on shared server hardware, consolidating what would otherwise be a rack full of individual IPCP Pro xi units into a single appliance. Each virtual control processor operates as a fully independent control system instance, running its own configuration and programming for one room or one system. This LinkLicense adds capacity for exactly one more virtual control processor, which is the right increment when a project needs to add a single room to an existing VCA 100 deployment rather than a full block of rooms. Because it is a software entitlement, no additional hardware, rack space, or cabling is required — the new virtual control processor becomes available for configuration as soon as the license is applied.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOne additional virtual control processor\u003c\/strong\u003e — Adds exactly one IPCP Pro xi instance to an existing VCA 100.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNo added hardware\u003c\/strong\u003e — Scales control capacity entirely in software on the existing appliance.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIndependent room configuration\u003c\/strong\u003e — Each virtual control processor runs its own configuration and programming.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRight-sized for single-room additions\u003c\/strong\u003e — The smallest increment available for VCA 100 expansion.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEnterprise scalability\u003c\/strong\u003e — Part of a licensing tier that also offers 5- and 10-processor increments for larger expansions.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eTypical Applications\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEnterprise control systems adding one additional room to a VCA 100 deployment\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMulti-room campus or facility control consolidation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGovernment and command-center control expansions\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cdiv style=\"overflow-x:auto;\"\u003e\u003ctable style=\"table-layout:fixed;min-width:0;width:100%;border-collapse:collapse;\"\u003e\n\u003ccolgroup\u003e\n\u003ccol style=\"width:45%\"\u003e\n\u003ccol style=\"width:55%\"\u003e\n\u003c\/colgroup\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"border:1px solid #ddd;padding:6px;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProduct type\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"border:1px solid #ddd;padding:6px;\"\u003eSoftware entitlement (LinkLicense)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"border:1px solid #ddd;padding:6px;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCompatible hardware\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"border:1px solid #ddd;padding:6px;\"\u003eExtron VCA 100 Virtual Control Appliance\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"border:1px solid #ddd;padding:6px;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCapacity added\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"border:1px solid #ddd;padding:6px;\"\u003e1 additional IPCP Pro xi virtual control processor\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"border:1px solid #ddd;padding:6px;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDelivery\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"border:1px solid #ddd;padding:6px;\"\u003eLicense applied to existing VCA 100 appliance; no additional hardware\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"border:1px solid #ddd;padding:6px;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePart number\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"border:1px solid #ddd;padding:6px;\"\u003e79-2582-04\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003ch2\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes this require a new VCA 100 appliance?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNo. It adds capacity to an existing VCA 100 already installed.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eShould I buy the 1-processor license or the 5- or 10-processor license?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eChoose the increment that matches your project's room count — the 5- and 10-processor LinkLicenses are more cost-effective for larger expansions.
