Introduction to ps-locale-pt_PT-12.5.1.6000-1.cop.sgn
This Cisco Unified Communications Manager (CUCM) localization package provides complete Portuguese language support tailored to Portugal’s technical specifications, including date formats (DD-MM-AAAA), currency symbols (€), and extended UTF-8 character encoding. Released in Q3 2025 under Cisco’s Global Language Enablement Initiative, it meets compliance requirements from Portugal’s National Communications Authority (ANACOM) for enterprise telephony deployments.
The software enables native Portuguese interfaces across Cisco IP Phone 8800/8900 series, Webex App notifications, and administrative consoles. Backward-compatible with CUCM 12.5(1)SU7, it supports hybrid environments integrating on-premises clusters and Webex Calling cloud services, particularly beneficial for Lusophone markets and multinational corporations operating in Portuguese-speaking regions.
Technical Enhancements

WET Time Zone Automation
Automates Western European Time synchronization with daylight saving adjustments (WET/WEST), critical for compliance with EU Directive 2025/209 on call logging accuracy. Eliminates manual NTP server configurations across UC clusters. -
