Introduction to ps-locale-fr_FR-14.0.1.2000-1.cop.sha512

This localization package enables native French language support for ​​Cisco Unified Communications Manager (CUCM) 14.0.1​​, delivering full UI translation for administrative portals, end-user devices, and diagnostic logs. Officially released in Q4 2024, it complies with France’s RGAA 4.1 digital accessibility standards and Unicode 15.0 character encoding requirements for francophone regions.

The software integrates with Cisco’s collaboration ecosystem, including Webex Calling and IP Phone 7800/8800 Series, ensuring consistent linguistic experiences across voice/video endpoints and management interfaces. The SHA512 checksum (embedded in the filename) guarantees cryptographic integrity during distribution.
