Introduction to uc-locale-fr_FR-12.5.0.1-31.cop.sgn

The ​​uc-locale-fr_FR-12.5.0.1-31.cop.sgn​​ is an official Cisco localization package designed to enable full French language support (fr_FR) in Unified Communications Manager (UCM) 12.5.x environments. Released in Q4 2024, this COP file provides UI translations, region-specific telephony protocols, and compliance with France’s General Data Protection Regulation (RGPD) for voice/video collaboration systems. Its cryptographic signature (“sgn”) ensures authenticity during deployment.

Compatible with UCM clusters running 12.5(1)SU5 or later, this package serves enterprises requiring French-language administrative interfaces, error messages, and directory services. The version suffix “31” indicates extended compatibility with Cisco Emergency Responder 12.5(2) and IP Phone 8800/8900 Series devices.
