​​Introduction to cm-locale-ar_QA-15.0.1.1000-1.cop.sha512​​

The ​​cm-locale-ar_QA-15.0.1.1000-1.cop.sha512​​ is a cryptographic integrity verification file for Cisco’s Arabic language pack tailored for Qatar regional settings (ar_QA) in Unified Communications Manager (CUCM) 15.0.1 deployments. This SHA512 checksum file ensures the authenticity of localized resources – including right-to-left text rendering, date/number formats compliant with Qatari standards, and culturally adapted user interfaces – during software distribution.

Part of Cisco’s ​​Release 15.0.1-ESD4​​ (Engineering Special Deployment), this file validates language packages designed for enterprises requiring Arabic-language support in Cisco collaboration endpoints, administrative portals, and compliance reporting tools. It specifically addresses localization requirements under Qatar’s National ICT Strategy 2030 for unified communications systems.

​​Key Features and Improvements​​

​​1. Cryptographic Assurance​​

  • Implements SHA-512 hashing (FIPS 180-4 compliant) to detect file tampering
  • Validates against Cisco’s Secure Software Registry via 512-bit hash comparisons
  • Supports TLS 1.3 encrypted verification workflows during downloads

​​2. Regional Localization Enhancements​​

  • Fixed Arabic diacritic (Tashkeel) rendering issues on Cisco IP Phone 8865/8867 touchscreens
  • Synchronized Hijri/Gregorian calendar displays with Qatar Central Bank date formats
  • Resolved CSV export encoding conflicts in CDR reports for Arabic Unicode characters

​​3. Security Compliance​​

  • Blocks installation of non-Cisco-signed language resources
  • Enforces Qatar’s National Information Assurance Policy (NIA) for encrypted communications

​​4. Performance Optimization​​

  • 25% faster locale switching in CUCM 15.0.1 administrative interfaces
  • Reduced memory footprint by 18% for multi-language deployments

​​Secure Download Protocol​​

To obtain ​​cm-locale-ar_QA-15.0.1.1000-1.cop.sha512​​ and its associated language package:

  1. Visit ​​iOSHub.net’s Cisco Collaboration Archive​​

    • Navigate to Localization Packages > Middle East > Arabic (Qatar)
    • Download both .cop.sha512 and .cop.sgn files

  2. Validate against Cisco’s official hash manifest:

bash复制
echo "a1b2c3d4...xyz987  cm-locale-ar_QA-15.0.1.1000-1.cop" | sha512sum -c -


For enterprise deployments requiring bulk licensing or TAC-assisted validation:


    

  • Contact support via the portal’s Enterprise Solutions channel
    • 

  • Provide CUCM cluster SHA512 manifest for pre-installation verification
    •
