Introduction to cm-locale-ar_DZ-14.0.1.1002-1.cop.sha512

This software package provides localized Arabic (Algeria) language support for Cisco Unified Communications Manager (CUCM) 14.x deployments. Designed for enterprises operating in North African markets, it enables system administrators to configure Arabic (ar_DZ) locale settings for user interfaces, date/time formats, and directory services. The included SHA512 checksum file ensures cryptographic validation of the downloaded COP file to prevent tampering or corruption.

Cisco officially released this language pack in Q1 2025 as part of its ongoing commitment to multilingual collaboration solutions. It targets CUCM clusters running version 14.0.1 or newer and requires a valid service contract for download.
