Introduction to cm-locale-fr_CH-14.0.1.1000-1.cop.sha512
This locale package delivers native Swiss French (fr_CH) language support for Cisco Unified Communications Manager (CUCM) 14.0.1 deployments, specifically optimized for multilingual environments in Switzerland and Liechtenstein. It localizes 3,150+ system elements including administrative interfaces, IP phone displays (8800/8900 Series), and automated voice prompts while maintaining compliance with ISO/IEC 10646 Unicode standards.
The “.cop.sha512” extension confirms cryptographic validation through 512-bit Secure Hash Algorithm verification, aligning with Cisco’s Enhanced Software Integrity Policy for enterprise collaboration systems. Released under Cisco’s Q3 2025 localization roadmap, this package implements Switzerland’s Federal Act on Data Protection (FADP) requirements for government communication systems and financial sector compliance.
