​Introduction to uc-locale-zh_HK-12.5.0.1-31.cop.sgn​

This Cisco Options Package (COP) file provides complete Traditional Chinese (Hong Kong) localization for Cisco Unified Communications Manager (CUCM) 12.5(1)SU8 and compatible collaboration platforms. Designed to meet Hong Kong’s bilingual (Chinese/English) operational requirements, it implements locale-specific configurations including date formats (YYYY年MM月DD日), currency symbols (HK$), and address formatting compliant with Hong Kong Post standards.

The version identifier “12.5.0.1-31” aligns with Cisco’s Q2 2025 security baseline, featuring enhanced SHA-256 cryptographic signing for secure enterprise deployments. This release specifically addresses Hong Kong’s updated Personal Data Privacy Ordinance (PDPO) requirements for call detail record (CDR) storage.
