​​Introduction to cm-locale-ar_AE-12.5.1.3000-1.cop.sgn Software​​

Designed for Cisco Unified Communications Manager (CUCM) environments, the ​​cm-locale-ar_AE-12.5.1.3000-1.cop.sgn​​ locale pack enables native Arabic (United Arab Emirates) language support across administrative interfaces and end-user applications. Released in Q1 2025 as part of CUCM 12.5.1 SU3 maintenance updates, this critical localization component ensures compliance with regional communication standards while maintaining full compatibility with Cisco’s security and feature frameworks.

The software addresses multinational enterprises’ needs for right-to-left (RTL) text rendering, localized date/time formats, and culturally adapted numbering systems in:

  • Cisco Unified CM Administration
  • Cisco Unified Serviceability
  • Cisco Unified Reporting
  • End-user devices with Arabic UI support

​​Key Features and Technical Enhancements​​

This locale package introduces three critical advancements for Middle Eastern deployments:

  1. ​​Extended Unicode 15.0 Support​​
    Implements bidirectional text handling for modern Arabic script variations, including proper ligature recognition in call detail records (CDRs) and directory listings.

  2. ​​Hijri-Gregorian Calendar Synchronization​​
    Enables automated date conversion between Islamic and Western calendars in:

    • Certificate expiration tracking
    • System event logs
    • User credential management

  3. ​​RTL Interface Optimization​​
    Redesigned GUI elements ensure proper alignment of:

    • Tabular data columns
    • Multi-field search filters
    • Progress indicators

Security improvements include SHA-3 hash validation for localized resource files and TLS 1.3-compliant character encoding in web administration modules.
