​Introduction to cm-locale-ar_TN-14.0.1.1002-1.cop.sha512 Software​

The ​​cm-locale-ar_TN-14.0.1.1002-1.cop.sha512​​ is an essential localization package for Cisco Unified Communications Manager (CUCM) 14.0 deployments requiring Tunisian Arabic (ar_TN) language support. Validated under Cisco’s Unified Communications Localization Framework, this COP file enables administrators to configure locale-specific parameters including right-to-left (RTL) text rendering, Hijri calendar integration, and numeric formats compliant with Tunisia’s telecommunications regulations.

Certified for CUCM clusters running version 14.0(1)SU2 or later, the package integrates Unicode 15.0 Arabic script standards through Cisco’s Common Locale Data Repository (CLDR) v43. The SHA512 suffix confirms cryptographic integrity verification per Cisco’s 2024 software distribution policy, requiring validation before deployment.
