Introduction to cm-locale-ar_BH-14.0.1.1003-1.cop.sha512
This SHA512-signed locale package provides Arabic (Bahrain) language support for Cisco Unified Communications Manager (CUCM) 14.0.1 deployments. Designed for organizations operating in Middle Eastern markets, it enables localized system prompts, date/time formats, and currency displays compliant with Bahraini regulatory standards.
As a critical component of Cisco’s global collaboration ecosystem, the package integrates natively with CUCM 14.x clusters and Cisco Webex Calling hybrid deployments. The embedded SHA512 checksum ensures file integrity during distribution, aligning with cryptographic best practices for enterprise software validation.
