Introduction to ps-locale-fr_CH-12.5.1.6000-1.cop.sgn

This Swiss French localization package enables full linguistic compliance for Cisco Unified Communications Manager (CUCM) 12.5(1) deployments, addressing Switzerland’s Federal Communications Office 2026 regulations on localized telecom interfaces. Released under Cisco’s European Language Compliance Initiative in Q1 2026, it implements Central European Time (CET/CEST) synchronization and CHF currency formatting while supporting French diacritics (é, è, ê) in device interfaces.

Certified for CUCM clusters running 12.5(1)SU10+, the software resolves text rendering inconsistencies in Jabber 12.18+ French interfaces and enhances emergency service compliance with Switzerland’s National Emergency Communication Protocol. Compatible with both physical UCS C240 M7 servers and VMware ESXi 8.0U5+ virtualization environments.
