​Introduction to ps-locale-bg_BG-12.5.1.4000-1.cop.sgn​

The ​​ps-locale-bg_BG-12.5.1.4000-1.cop.sgn​​ is an official Cisco localization package enabling Bulgarian language support for Cisco Unified Communications Manager (CUCM) 12.5.1 systems. Released on March 18, 2025, this COP file implements Cyrillic script compliance (BDS 1596:2013 standard) across administrative interfaces, device configurations, and API responses. Designed for enterprises operating in Bulgaria, it addresses legal requirements under the Communications Regulation Commission (CRC) for localized telecommunications systems.

This language pack integrates with hybrid deployments combining on-premises CUCM clusters and Webex Calling services, ensuring consistent UI translations for Cisco IP Phone 8800 Series endpoints and Webex App users.
