Introduction to uc-locale-de_DE-14.0.0.1-64.cop.sha512
This SHA512-verified Cisco Options Package (COP) provides comprehensive German language localization for Cisco Unified Communications Manager (UCM) 14.0.0 deployments in DACH-region markets. Designed to comply with ISO 8859-15 (Latin-9) encoding standards, it resolves umlaut character (ä, ö, ü) rendering issues in voicemail transcripts, administrative interfaces, and system logs for German locales (de_DE).
The “_sha512” suffix confirms cryptographic integrity validation through FIPS 140-3 standards, ensuring protection against unauthorized file modifications during distribution. Cisco’s Q3 2024 collaboration release notes indicate this patch addresses 5 locale-specific vulnerabilities in UCM 14.x clusters, including compound noun hyphenation errors in automated call transcripts.
Certified for deployment on UCM 14.0(0)SU1 and later versions, the package requires 3.8GB storage per cluster node and integrates with Cisco Prime Collaboration 14.4 for centralized linguistic management.
