This SHA512-verified language pack provides full Arabic (Egypt) localization support for Cisco Unified Communications Manager (CUCM) v14.0.1 deployments. Designed specifically for Middle Eastern enterprises, it enables Arabic-Egyptian (ar_EG) language display across collaboration interfaces including voicemail systems, IP phone displays, and administrative portals.

The .cop file format follows Cisco’s standard customization object package structure, containing locale-specific configurations, character encoding tables, and RTL text rendering libraries validated through SHA512 cryptographic hashing. Released in Q4 2024 as part of CUCM 14.0.1’s globalization update, it supports Cisco’s commitment to ISO 639-3 language standards compliance.
