Introduction to ps-locale-es_AR-14.0.1.1000-1.cop.sha512
This SHA512-verified localization package provides native Spanish language support optimized for Argentina’s regional dialect (ISO 639-3 “es_AR” locale) in Cisco Unified Communications Manager (CUCM) 14.0.1 environments. Designed to comply with Argentina’s Resolution 5/2024 on telecommunications software localization, it ensures accurate text rendering in administrative consoles, user portals, and endpoint devices while adhering to Rioplatense Spanish linguistic standards.
Certified for CUCM clusters running Release 14.0(1)SU4 or later, this package supports hybrid deployments integrating Webex and third-party SIP devices. Cisco officially released this update in Q1 2025 as part of its Latin American regional compliance initiative.
