The figure below is a visual representation of the components being offered in the Core CAL Suite and Enterprise CAL Suite as of October 2010. Required server software licenses are not included in the CAL Suites and must be purchased separately. The diagram also shows the base and additive CAL relationships in the CAL Suites.

For Lync Server 2010, formerly named Office Communications Server (OCS), access to Enterprise voice workloads are licensed through the Lync Server 2010 Plus CAL (Plus CAL). Enterprise voice capabilities previously available through the OCS Enterprise CAL are now only available through the Lync Server 2010 Plus CAL. Like the Enterprise CAL, the Plus CAL is an additive CAL, and can only be purchased once the Lync Server 2010 Standard CAL has been acquired. In other words, both the Lync Server 2010 Enterprise and Plus CALs are additive CALs, however neither is a prerequisite for the other.
The Lync Server 2010 Plus CAL is not included with the Enterprise CAL Suite (ECAL Suite). The price for the Lync Server 2010 Enterprise CAL has decreased to reflect the transfer of voice functionality to the Plus CAL.
Customers who purchased the OCS Enterprise CAL or ECAL Suite after June 30, 2009, but before the scheduled General Availability of Lync Server 2010 on December 1, 2010, and maintained active Software Assurance (SA), have access rights equivalent to those rights under the Lync Server 2010 Plus CAL. Customers need to separately renew their SA for the Lync Server 2010 Plus CAL at their first renewal period after the Lync Server 2010 launch if they choose to keep the Lync Server 2010 Voice CAL SA benefits.
Customers who purchased an OCS Enterprise CAL or the ECAL Suite before July 1st 2009 and maintained active SA have access rights equivalent to those rights under the Lync Server Plus CAL for two releases, Lync Server 2010 and the next future release tentatively named Lync Server "15". Customers need to separately renew SA for Lync Server Plus CAL at their first renewal period after the Lync Server "15" release in order to maintain their SA benefits. This grandfathering policy addresses concerns about the transition and provides sufficient time for deployment and budgeting.
Customers who do not have or maintain active SA on their OCS Enterprise CAL or the ECAL Suite will not be qualified for either grandfathering offer and will be required to purchase the Lync Server Plus CAL to acquire the voice functionality.
The following figure describes the four licensing options with Lync Server CALs.
