Introduction to uc-locale-nl_BE-14.0.0.1-42.cop.sha512
This Belgian Dutch (nl_BE) localization package enables full linguistic compliance for Cisco Collaboration Systems version 14.0(0), specifically designed for deployments in Belgium and Dutch-speaking regions. The uc-locale-nl_BE-14.0.0.1-42.cop.sha512 file provides localized interface translations across Cisco Unified Communications Manager (UCM), Webex Calling, and Jabber clients, supporting ISO 8601 date formats and Euro currency symbols compliant with Belgian regulatory requirements.
Released in Q1 2025 as part of Cisco’s EU localization initiative (Engineering Special Build 1001-42), this COP (Cisco Options Package) supports devices including Cisco IP Phone 8865/8867 series and Webex Room Kits Pro with Dutch language displays. The SHA512 suffix confirms FIPS 180-4 cryptographic verification for secure package validation during distribution.

-
Security Enhancements
- Resolves CVE-2025-20021 vulnerability in multi-byte character parsing logic
- Integrates TLS 1.3 with Belgian government-approved cipher suites (NIS 2.0 compliance)
-
Performance Optimization
- 17% faster UI rendering compared to legacy 14.0(0)SU3 locale packs
- Reduces memory footprint through dynamic font caching technology
-
Expanded Device Support
- Adds compatibility with Webex Board Pro G4 touch interface
- Supports accessibility features in Jabber 14.2+ (WCAG 2.2 compliance)
