1. Introduction to ps-locale-ar_TN-12.5.1.4000-1.cop.sgn

This localization package provides complete Tunisian Arabic language support for Cisco Unified Communications Manager (CUCM) v12.5 systems, designed to comply with Tunisia’s Digital Economy Act (Law No. 2024-52) requirements for public sector telecommunications infrastructure. Released on January 15, 2025 under Cisco’s MEA Localization Program, the COP file updates 1,870 administrative interface elements and implements ITU-T E.123 standards for Arabic script rendering in telephony systems.

Compatible with CUCM clusters running on UCS C-Series M7 servers (C220/C240) and VMware ESXi 8.0 U3+ virtual deployments. The package maintains backward compatibility with existing H.323/SIP trunk configurations while upgrading locale-specific emergency service routing tables.
