Introduction to uc-locale-he_IL-14.0.0.1-42.cop.sha512
This locale package delivers Hebrew (Israel) language support for Cisco Unified Communications Manager (CUCM) version 14.x systems. Designed to meet Israel’s telecommunications compliance standards, it enables right-to-left (RTL) text rendering for administrative interfaces, IP phone displays, and voicemail systems. The “.sha512” extension confirms cryptographic integrity through SHA-512 hashing, aligning with Cisco’s enhanced security protocols for software distribution.
Released under Cisco’s Q2 2025 localization roadmap, this package supports CUCM 14.0.1 base installations and subsequent service updates (SU1-SU4). It remains compatible with both VMware ESXi 8.0 virtualized environments and Cisco UCS C-Series hardware appliances until the platform’s end-of-life in Q3 2027.
