Introduction to cm-locale-en_GB-14.0.1.1000-1.cop.sha512
This Cisco Options Package (COP) provides full British English localization for Cisco Unified Communications Manager (UCM) 14.0.1 systems, addressing regional compliance requirements including date/time formats (ISO 8601:2004), currency symbols (£), and linguistic preferences specific to the UK/Ireland markets. The “.cop” extension confirms its role as a Cisco system language pack, while the SHA512 hash ensures cryptographic verification of package integrity during deployment.
Certified for UCM 14.0.1 clusters, this locale pack became generally available on March 28, 2025. It supports hybrid deployments integrating Webex Calling with on-premises infrastructure, particularly critical for organizations adhering to UK GDPR and Ofcom communications regulations.
