Introduction to UCSInstall_CUC_14.0.1.10000-19.sha512.iso
This SHA512-verified ISO image provides the complete installation package for Cisco Unified Communications Manager (UCM) 14.0(1) SU19, designed for enterprise-grade voice/video collaboration systems. Released under Cisco’s Software Maintenance cycle, it integrates critical security patches and feature updates validated through Cisco’s Unified Computing System (UCS) hardware compatibility program.
The “.sha512” extension confirms cryptographic integrity validation per Cisco’s 2024 Secure Development Lifecycle standards. As a core component of Cisco’s UC 14.x ecosystem, this ISO supports automated deployment on UCS C-Series rack servers and HyperFlex hyperconverged infrastructure.
