Introduction to cm-locale-pt_BR-12.5.1.6000-1.cop.sgn
The cm-locale-pt_BR-12.5.1.6000-1.cop.sgn is a locale-specific software component for Cisco Unified Communications Manager (CUCM) 12.5.1, designed to enable full Brazilian Portuguese language support across collaboration platforms. Released in Q3 2024 as part of CUCM 12.5.1 Service Update 6, this COP file ensures compliance with regional linguistic standards, including localized user interfaces, administrative menus, and regional formatting rules for enterprises operating in Brazil.
This pack integrates with Cisco’s core collaboration tools—such as Cisco Unity Connection, IM & Presence Service, and Cisco Emergency Responder—to deliver consistent localization for voicemail prompts, system alerts, and endpoint device configurations. It is critical for organizations adhering to Brazil’s LGPD (Lei Geral de Proteção de Dados) data privacy regulations, which mandate Portuguese-language interfaces for user-facing systems.
