1. Introduction to ps-locale-fr_CH-12.5.1.4000-1.cop.sgn

This localization package delivers comprehensive Swiss French language support for Cisco Unified Communications Manager (CUCM) v12.5 systems, designed to comply with Switzerland’s Federal Act on Data Protection (FADP) 2024 requirements for multilingual telecommunications infrastructure. Released on September 15, 2024 under Cisco’s EMEA Localization Program, the COP file updates 1,920 administrative interface elements and implements ISO/IEC 10646:2023 standards for multilingual text rendering in enterprise communication systems.

Compatible with CUCM clusters operating on UCS C-Series M7 servers (C220/C240) and VMware ESXi 8.0 U3+ virtual environments. The package maintains backward compatibility with existing SIP/H.323 trunk configurations while enhancing locale-specific emergency service routing protocols for Swiss regulatory compliance.
