​Introduction to cm-locale-ar_AE-12.5.1.6000-1.cop.sgn Software​

This cryptographic-signed localization package provides Arabic (ar_AE) language support for Cisco Unified Communications Manager (CUCM) 12.5(1), designed to comply with UAE’s Federal Decree Law No. 12 of 2024 on digital accessibility. The package translates 2,500+ interface elements across administrative portals, API error messages, and endpoint configurations with Unicode 15.0 Arabic script rendering optimized for right-to-left text display.

Released on March 30, 2025 (build 6000-1), it resolves 34 localization defects from previous versions, including bidirectional text formatting errors in Webex Calling and Gregorian/Hijri calendar synchronization issues. Mandatory SHA512 checksum validation ensures installation integrity per ISO/IEC 19790 security standards.
