Introduction to uc-locale-tr_TR-12.5.0.1-31.cop.sgn
The uc-locale-tr_TR-12.5.0.1-31.cop.sgn file is an official localization package for Cisco Unified Communications Manager (CUCM) 12.5.0.1 systems, designed to provide comprehensive Turkish (Turkey) language support for administrative interfaces, endpoint devices, and collaboration applications. Released in Q2 2023 as part of Cisco’s CUCM maintenance updates, this cryptographically signed Cisco Options Package (COP) ensures compliance with Turkey’s regional communication standards, including localization mandates for enterprise telephony systems under Regulation No. 5651.
This package enables:
- Full GUI translation for CUCM 12.5.0.1 administrative portals
- tr_TR-specific date/time formats (DD.MM.YYYY)
- Turkish character set support for directory services and call logs
Key Technical Enhancements
This localization update introduces critical improvements tailored for Turkish enterprise environments:
-
Extended Unicode 12.1 Support
Implements full coverage of Turkish Latin Extended-A/B character sets (e.g., ğ, ş, ı) with UTF-8 encoding optimized for Cisco IP Phone 7800/8800 Series displays. -
Digital Signature Validation
Uses Cisco’s proprietary .sgn cryptographic signing method to authenticate software integrity, preventing unauthorized modifications during distribution. -
Resource Efficiency
Reduces disk space usage by 20% compared to legacy Turkish localization packages through optimized translation libraries (9.3 MB → 7.4 MB per cluster node). -
Multi-Service Synchronization
Supports parallel deployment across CUCM 12.5.0.1, Cisco Unity Connection 12.5(1), and IM&P 12.5(0), ensuring consistent language displays in voicemail-to-email transcripts and meeting invites.
Compatibility Requirements
The software requires specific Cisco collaboration infrastructure configurations:
Component | Minimum Version | Hardware Requirements |
---|---|---|
CUCM | 12.5.0.1 | 45GB free disk space |
Cisco Prime Collaboration | 12.5(1) | 12GB RAM |
Cisco Unified Intelligence Center | 12.5(0) | Dual-core CPU |
Critical Notes:
- Incompatible with Cisco Expressway X12.5 or earlier due to SHA-256 certificate requirements
- Requires Cisco Smart License Tier 1 or higher for activation
Secure Distribution Protocol
Authenticated network administrators can obtain uc-locale-tr_TR-12.5.0.1-31.cop.sgn through Cisco’s authorized distribution channels. The file’s digital signature must validate against Cisco’s public key infrastructure (PKI) using the show software authenticity CLI command prior to deployment.
