This VCA 100 virtual control processor license is sized for mid-size enterprise projects that need to bring a block of rooms onto a centralized control system in a single expansion.\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 five additional virtual control processors in a single purchase, which is more cost-effective per processor than buying five 1-processor licenses individually — a natural fit for a floor renovation, a building addition, or a phased campus rollout. Because it is a software entitlement, no additional hardware, rack space, or cabling is required — the five new virtual control processors become 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\u003eFive additional virtual control processors\u003c\/strong\u003e — Adds five IPCP Pro xi instances to an existing VCA 100 in one license.\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\u003eCost-efficient block sizing\u003c\/strong\u003e — More economical per processor than purchasing five 1-processor licenses.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEnterprise scalability\u003c\/strong\u003e — Part of a licensing tier that also offers 1- and 10-processor increments.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eTypical Applications\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMulti-room building or floor renovations bringing several rooms onto one control system\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHigher-education building additions\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;\"\u003e5 additional IPCP Pro xi virtual control processors\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;\"\u003e79-2582-01\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\u003eIs this more cost-effective than five single-processor licenses?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes, the 5-processor license is priced more efficiently per processor than purchasing five 1-processor LinkLicenses separately.
