Windows Small Business Server 2011 Standard Edition is a comprehensive, integrated, dependable server operating system that is designed to help you increase the effectiveness of your computing operation and reduce IT costs for your small business.

This 'Essentials' edition does not use client access licenses (CALs) to regulate access to the server. Instead, it comes licensed for 25 users - and that number cannot be increased.

If you need SQL Server capability, you would want to add the SBS 2011 Premium Add-on.
