Introduction to ps-locale-ar_DZ-15.0.1.2000-1.cop.sha512

This localization package enables native Algerian Arabic (ar-DZ) language support in Cisco Unified Communications Manager (CUCM) 15.0.1 deployments, addressing regulatory compliance under Algeria’s Telecommunications Regulatory Authority (ARPT) 2024 directives. Released through Cisco’s Global Language Standardization Program in Q2 2025, it implements:

  • ​​Right-to-left text rendering​​ with Algerian dialect-specific diacritics
  • ​​Localized emergency service labels​​ compliant with ARPT Directive 2025/03
  • ​​Currency formatting​​ for Algerian dinar (DZD) in billing reports per Bank of Algeria standards

The .cop.sha512 extension confirms cryptographic validation using FIPS 140-3 compliant SHA-512 hashing, ensuring file integrity during deployment. Compatible with CUCM clusters running 15.0.1SU4 or later.
