Introduction to cm-locale-ar_MA-14.0.1.3000-1.cop.sha512
This localization package provides Moroccan Arabic language support for Cisco Unified Communications Manager (CUCM) 14.0.1 systems, enabling compliance with Morocco’s telecommunications regulations and regional formatting requirements. Released in Q2 2025 under Cisco’s Middle East/North Africa Localization Initiative, it implements Arabic script rendering (including extended Maghrebi characters) across 43 administrative interfaces and device templates while meeting ANRT’s technical standards.
The “.cop.sha512” extension confirms FIPS 180-4 compliant SHA-512 cryptographic verification, ensuring secure distribution of localization resources. Designed for multinational enterprises operating in Francophone Africa, it supports CUCM clusters running 14.0(1)SU4 or later, including hybrid deployments with Webex Calling.
