Introduction to ps-locale-de_DE-12.5.1.7000-1.cop.sha512

This German localization package enables full linguistic compliance for Cisco Unified Communications Manager (CUCM) 12.5(1) deployments, addressing Germany’s Telecommunications Act (TKG 2027) requirements for localized telecom interfaces. Released under Cisco’s Central European Language Standardization Initiative in Q2 2027, it implements Central European Time (CET/CEST) synchronization and EUR currency formatting while supporting DIN 91379 Unicode character sets for German diacritics (ä, ö, ü, ß).

Certified for CUCM clusters running 12.5(1)SU14+, the software resolves text rendering inconsistencies in Jabber 12.22+ German interfaces and enhances compliance with BSI cybersecurity standards. Compatible with both UCS C240 M7 hardware and VMware ESXi 8.0U7+ virtualization environments.
