​​Introduction to cm-locale-ar_AE-14.0.1.1003-1.cop.sha512​​

This cryptographic software package delivers native Arabic (United Arab Emirates dialect) localization for Cisco Unified Communications Manager (CUCM) 14.0.1 environments. Designed per RFC 5646 language tagging standards, it enables right-to-left text rendering and cultural date/time formatting across Cisco collaboration endpoints including IP Phones 8800/8900 series, Webex Room Kits, and administrative interfaces.

Certified for use in UAE government and enterprise deployments, the SHA512-signed COP file ensures authenticity verification through FIPS 180-4 compliant hashing before installation. Released on February 15, 2025, it addresses localization requirements under UAE’s Digital Government Strategy 2031 for Arabic language compliance.
