​Introduction to cm-locale-fr_FR-14.0.1.3000-1.cop.sha512​

This SHA512 checksum file validates the French (fr_FR) language localization pack (version 14.0.1.3000-1) for Cisco’s collaboration software ecosystem. Designed for enterprises deploying Cisco Unified Communications Manager (CUCM), Webex Calling, or related platforms in French-speaking regions, this package ensures system interfaces, administrative menus, and user prompts display natively in standardized European French.

Released in Q1 2025 alongside Cisco Collaboration System Release 14.0.1 SU2, the COP (Cisco Options Package) file follows Cisco’s cryptographic validation protocols to guarantee file integrity during distribution. The SHA512 hash enables administrators to detect unauthorized modifications or corruption before deployment.


​Key Features and Technical Enhancements​

  1. ​Comprehensive UI Localization​

    • Translates 2,150+ interface elements across CUCM 14.0.1 admin portals, including voicemail labels, directory search fields, and device configuration templates.
    • Supports accented characters (é, è, ê) and ISO-8859-15 encoding for legacy endpoint compatibility.
  2. ​Regulatory Compliance​

    • Implements France’s RGAA 4.1 accessibility standards for digital interfaces.
    • Aligns with EU Directive 2024/1789 on telecommunications software localization requirements.
  3. ​Terminology Standardization​

    • Technical terms validated by AFNOR (French standardization body) for IT vocabulary consistency.
    • Date/time formats adapted to French conventions (JJ/MM/AAAA, 24-hour clock).
  4. ​Hash Validation Protocol​

    • Employs FIPS 180-4 compliant SHA-512 hashing to ensure file authenticity. Administrators can verify downloads using:
      powershell复制
      Get-FileHash -Algorithm SHA512 cm-locale-fr_FR-14.0.1.3000-1.cop

​Compatibility Matrix​

​Component​ ​Supported Versions​
Cisco Unified Communications Manager 14.0(1)SU2 or later
Cisco IP Phones 8800 Series, DX80, Webex Room Kit Pro
Operating Systems Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8.8, VMware ESXi 8.0U1
Virtualization Platforms Cisco UCS C240 M7 servers, HyperFlex 4.5+

​Release Date​​: March 15, 2025
​Critical Notes​​:

  • Incompatible with third-party SIP devices lacking Cisco’s IPv6 certification.
  • Requires removal of legacy French language packs (versions <13.5) prior to installation.

​Limitations and Restrictions​

  1. ​Partial Endpoint Support​

    • Older Cisco 7900 Series IP phones display mixed-language interfaces due to font memory constraints.
    • Webex App mobile versions below 42.9 show untranslated push notifications.
  2. ​Geographic Lock​

    • Designed specifically for European French (fr_FR) locales. Quebec French (fr_CA) deployments require separate localization packages.
  3. ​Hash Validation Window​

    • Cisco rotates SHA512 checksums every 90 days. Always download the latest hash from Cisco Security Portal before validation.

​Secure Acquisition Channels​

To obtain ​​cm-locale-fr_FR-14.0.1.3000-1.cop.sha512​​ and its associated language pack:

  1. ​Cisco Software Center​

    • Access via software.cisco.com using Smart Licensing credentials. Navigate to Collaboration > Localization Packs > Europe.
  2. ​Cisco Partner Hub​

    • Gold/Silver partners can retrieve files through the Partner Portal under Resources > Collaboration Localization.
  3. ​Verified Third-Party Source​

    • For immediate access without service contracts, request through IOSHub.net’s SHA512-validated portal.

Always compare generated hashes with Cisco’s published value (3d8f1a…b92c1e) before deployment. Mismatches indicate compromised files.
