{"product_id":"netgear-gb406p60-10000s-align-controller-5-year-premium-licence","title":"NETGEAR GB406P60-10000S – Align Controller 5-Year Premium Licence","description":"\u003ch2\u003eProduct Overview\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe NETGEAR GB406P60-10000S is a five-year electronic licence for the \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/creationnetworks.net\/products\/netgear-gb406-100nes-align-controller\"\u003eAlign Controller (GB406)\u003c\/a\u003e. It covers two capabilities: NETGEAR Insight cloud remote management of the controller, and third-party application support on the appliance. The GB406 ships with a three-month included period for both, and this licence extends that to five years. There is nothing physical to receive and no effect on the controller's local management, which needs no licence.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eProduct Description\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eRemote management is the practical reason integrators buy this. Out of the box, the Align Controller is administered from a browser on the local network, which is fine for a single site an engineer can reach. Once Engage is managing AV switches, Pro Routers and access points across multiple buildings or client sites, reaching the controller through the NETGEAR Insight portal instead of a site visit is what makes the deployment supportable. NETGEAR publishes support for up to five concurrent remote users.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe second entitlement is third-party application support. The GB406 runs Ubuntu with Docker, and NETGEAR presents it as a platform that additional AV applications can run on rather than a fixed-function box. That capability sits behind the same licence.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt is worth being precise about what this licence is not. It is not a hardware warranty extension — the GB406 already carries NETGEAR's Enterprise five-year warranty. It is also not a technical support contract; support is ordered separately under the \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/creationnetworks.net\/products\/netgear-gb406-support-contract\"\u003eGB406 support contract\u003c\/a\u003e, which covers the Sprint and Overdrive tiers. Buying this licence gives you cloud remote management and application support, and nothing else.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBecause the included period is only three months, the practical decision point is at commissioning rather than at renewal. On a commercial AV deployment where the controller will be managed remotely for its service life, taking the five-year term up front avoids a lapse three months after handover — typically the point at which the integrator has moved on to the next project and a gap is least welcome. NETGEAR does not publish activation, delivery or transfer terms for this part number, so confirm those with us before ordering against a controller already in service.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFive-year term\u003c\/strong\u003e — Extends coverage well beyond the three-month period included with the GB406.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNETGEAR Insight cloud remote management\u003c\/strong\u003e — Allows the Align Controller to be reached and administered from outside the local network.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThird-party application support\u003c\/strong\u003e — Covers running additional applications on the controller's Ubuntu and Docker platform.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFive concurrent remote users\u003c\/strong\u003e — NETGEAR publishes support for up to five simultaneous remote sessions.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eElectronic delivery\u003c\/strong\u003e — Issued as a licence with no hardware to ship or rack.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLocal management unaffected\u003c\/strong\u003e — The controller's browser-based LAN interface continues to work without any licence.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eTypical Applications\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCommercial meeting space\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBoardroom\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConference room\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMulti-purpose room\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTraining room\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAuditorium\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGovernment space\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBroadcast studio\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cdiv style=\"overflow-x:auto;-webkit-overflow-scrolling:touch;\"\u003e\u003ctable style=\"width:100%;border-collapse:collapse;min-width:420px;\"\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\" style=\"text-align:left;padding:8px;border-bottom:1px solid #ddd;\"\u003eManufacturer\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:8px;border-bottom:1px solid #ddd;\"\u003eNETGEAR\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\" style=\"text-align:left;padding:8px;border-bottom:1px solid #ddd;\"\u003ePart Number\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:8px;border-bottom:1px solid #ddd;\"\u003eGB406P60-10000S\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\" style=\"text-align:left;padding:8px;border-bottom:1px solid #ddd;\"\u003eLicence Type\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:8px;border-bottom:1px solid #ddd;\"\u003eElectronic licence, no hardware\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\" style=\"text-align:left;padding:8px;border-bottom:1px solid #ddd;\"\u003eTerm\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:8px;border-bottom:1px solid #ddd;\"\u003e5 years\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\" style=\"text-align:left;padding:8px;border-bottom:1px solid #ddd;\"\u003eApplies To\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:8px;border-bottom:1px solid #ddd;\"\u003eNETGEAR Align Controller (GB406)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\" style=\"text-align:left;padding:8px;border-bottom:1px solid #ddd;\"\u003eEntitlements\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:8px;border-bottom:1px solid #ddd;\"\u003eNETGEAR Insight cloud remote management; third-party app support\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\" style=\"text-align:left;padding:8px;border-bottom:1px solid #ddd;\"\u003eIncluded Period Without Licence\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:8px;border-bottom:1px solid #ddd;\"\u003e3 months\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\" style=\"text-align:left;padding:8px;border-bottom:1px solid #ddd;\"\u003eConcurrent Remote Users\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:8px;border-bottom:1px solid #ddd;\"\u003eUp to 5\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\" style=\"text-align:left;padding:8px;border-bottom:1px solid #ddd;\"\u003eHardware Warranty Effect\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:8px;border-bottom:1px solid #ddd;\"\u003eNone — the GB406 carries a separate NETGEAR Enterprise 5-year warranty\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\" style=\"text-align:left;padding:8px;border-bottom:1px solid #ddd;\"\u003eTechnical Support Effect\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:8px;border-bottom:1px solid #ddd;\"\u003eNone — support is ordered separately (Sprint or Overdrive contracts)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eLicence scope sourced from NETGEAR published documentation for the GB406.
