Introduction to cm-locale-ar_YE-12.5.1.5000-1.cop.sgn

This localization package provides Arabic (Yemen) language support for Cisco’s enterprise collaboration systems, specifically designed to meet Middle Eastern regional compliance requirements. The “.sgn” extension indicates Cisco’s Secure Gateway Notation encryption for software package authentication.

Compatible with Cisco Unified Communications Manager 12.5(1)SU6 and later versions, this package delivers localized interface translations for Yemeni dialect preferences. While exact release dates aren’t publicly documented, the version numbering aligns with Cisco’s Q4 2024 language pack refresh cycle for GCC region deployments.


Key Features and Improvements
