​​Introduction to ps-locale-ar_QA-14.0.1.1001-1.cop.sha512​​

The ​​ps-locale-ar_QA-14.0.1.1001-1.cop.sha512​​ is a Cisco-signed localization package designed to enable full Arabic (Qatar) language support for Cisco Unified Communications Manager (CUCM) 14.0.1 deployments. Tailored for enterprises operating in Qatar and Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) regions, this SHA512-verified component ensures right-to-left (RTL) script compatibility across administrative interfaces, error logs, and user portals while adhering to Qatar’s regulatory standards for date formats (Hijri/Gregorian calendars) and financial reporting requirements.

Developed under RFC 5646 language code conventions (“ar_QA” for Arabic/Qatar), this release (14.0.1.1001-1) resolves Unicode 15.0 rendering challenges specific to Arabic diacritics in directory services and call detail records (CDRs). Validated for CUCM clusters running 14.0.1 SU2 or later, it supports both UCS C220/C240 M6 physical appliances and VMware ESXi 7.0U3+ virtualized environments.

​​Key Features and Enhancements​​

​​Regional Compliance​​

  • ​​Bidirectional Text Support​​: Enables seamless RTL Arabic script rendering in CUCM administrative portals and IP phone UIs while maintaining Latin script compatibility for technical terms.
  • ​​Hijri Calendar Integration​​: Synchronizes with Qatar Central Bank’s financial reporting standards by supporting dual date displays (Gregorian/Hijri) in CDR exports.

​​Security & Integrity​​

  • ​​FIPS 180-4 SHA512 Hashing​​: Embedded cryptographic verification ensures package authenticity during distribution, preventing tampering through Cisco Trust Anchor modules.
  • ​​X.509 Certificate Validation​​: Automates metadata authentication in Prime Collaboration 15.0+ deployments via Cisco’s PKI infrastructure.

​​Administrative Efficiency​​

  • ​​Bulk Directory Localization​​: Converts Latin-based directory entries to Arabic script using ICU4C libraries with UTF-8/UTF-16 encoding support.
  • ​​CLI Localization​​: Arabic-language support for Unified OS Administration commands and RTMT diagnostics, including RTL terminal alignment.
