Introduction to ps-locale-de_CH-14.0.1.1000-1.cop.sha512
This cryptographic localization package delivers full Swiss German (de_CH) language support for Cisco Unified Communications Manager (CUCM) 14.x systems. Released under Cisco’s Q3 2025 Software Maintenance Window SWMW-UC-2025-03, it implements ISO/IEC 10646 Unicode 16.0 standards for Swiss-specific character rendering and CHF currency formatting in administrative interfaces.
As a COP (Cisco Options Package) file with SHA-512 checksum validation, it requires 1.6GB disk space and integrates with Cisco Smart Licensing v3.5 for automated compliance auditing. Designed for enterprises operating in Switzerland’s multilingual regions, it supports legal compliance with OFCOM regulations for telecom systems.
