I need serve data throught OPC from 800xA System to another Foxboro System, I need a special OPC License?
I need serve data throught OPC from a Irformation Management of a 800xA System to another Foxboro System, in this case I understand that the Information Management of 800xA will work as OPC server and the Foxboro System will be the OPC client, I understand that the OPC Server of the 800xA (AC800M) is included in the base license, but I am not sure if I do not need an additional kind of OPC license

I guess this is a duplicate of your other question about whether you need to buy any "tags".
You can get an OPC server for AC800M controllers without using an 800xA system at all. So its not clear why you are using an IM or why someone would tell you that you need one.

for third party OPC client connections to 800xA system you do need a license. check the following from System 800xA 5.1 Product Catalog (3BSE062937)
800xA OPC Client Connection, 800xA 5.1
This enables third party OPC clients to connect to 800xA via the 800xA OPC server. One per external access.
