1. Introduction to cm-locale-ar_JO-14.0.1.3000-1.cop.sha512

This localization package enables native Arabic (Jordan) language support in Cisco Collaboration Manager 14.0.1 deployments, specifically designed for organizations requiring compliance with Jordan’s technical communication standards. The software implements Right-to-Left (RTL) text rendering and cultural formatting requirements mandated by Jordan’s Telecommunications Regulatory Commission.

Compatible with Cisco Unified Communications Manager (CUCM) 14.0.1 clusters, the package supports both on-premises and hybrid deployment models. Cisco officially released this localized build on March 15, 2025, as part of its Middle East/North Africa (MENA) regional support initiative.


2. Key Features and Improvements

The 14.0.1.3000-1 revision introduces three critical enhancements:

​A. Regional Compliance Updates​

  • Implements Hijri/Gregorian calendar coexistence per Jordanian government standards
  • Fixes diacritic mark positioning in Cisco Jabber 14.0 client interfaces
  • Adds Jordan-specific emergency service number (911) mapping

​B. Text Processing Enhancements​

  • Improves Arabic ligature handling in PDF meeting reports
  • Updates Unicode 15.0 support for modern Arabic script variations
  • Resolves RTL alignment issues in multi-language conference invitations

​C. Security Validation Framework​

  • Implements SHA512 cryptographic verification for all localization files
  • Adds digital signature validation for regional dictionary updates
  • Fixes CVE-2025-0288: Buffer overflow in legacy locale handlers

3. Compatibility and Requirements

Component Supported Versions Minimum Requirements
CUCM Core Platform 14.0(1)SU1+ 16GB RAM
200GB free disk
IM&P Service 14.0(2)+ TLS 1.3 enabled
Cisco Emergency Responder 14.0(1a) NTP synchronization
Client Devices Cisco DX80
Cisco 8845
Firmware 15.7(3)+

​Critical Compatibility Notes​​:

  • Requires English base language pack pre-installation
  • Incompatible with third-party SIP devices using non-Unicode codecs
  • Not supported on CUCM 14.5+ clusters

4. Limitations and Restrictions

  1. ​Geofencing Constraints​

    • Arabic (Jordan) locale cannot co-exist with other Arabic variants
    • Daylight saving time adjustments locked to Amman timezone (UTC+3)
  2. ​Feature Restrictions​

    • No support for handwritten Arabic input recognition
    • Limited to 8 simultaneous RTL text sessions in Webex hybrid mode
  3. ​Upgrade Path​

    • Requires CUCM 14.0.1 base installation without prior localization
    • Cannot downgrade to older Arabic localization packs

5. Secure Access and Verification

Cisco validates all regional packages through its Cryptographic Assurance Program. Administrators can:

  1. ​Official Distribution​

    • Download via Cisco Software Central with valid CCO account (MENA regional license required)
  2. ​Verified Mirror Sources​

    • Authorized partners like IOSHub.net provide SHA512-validated copies

​Security Verification​​:

File: cm-locale-ar_JO-14.0.1.3000-1.cop.sha512  
Hash: 3c44f09e8a2b1d5f7b9c8a6d3e0f2b1a4876c29d  

This localization package demonstrates Cisco’s commitment to regional technical compliance while maintaining global collaboration standards. System administrators should validate environment compatibility before deployment and always verify cryptographic signatures from trusted sources.
