Definition of CLI Routes

CLI routes, or Calling Line Identification routes, are specialized telecommunications pathways that ensure accurate and consistent display of a caller’s phone number or business name on the recipient’s caller ID. By routing calls directly to Mobile Network Operators (MNOs), CC Routes often facilitate higher-quality calls. This essential feature promotes trust and transparency in communication, enabling recipients to make informed decisions about answering calls.

How CLI Routes Work?

Arrow

Caller ID Encoding: When you initiate a call, your phone number/identifier is encoded into the call's signaling data (using protocols like SS7 or SIP).

Arrow

Prioritized Routing: CLI routes often connect directly to Mobile Network Operators (MNOs) for high-quality transmission.

Arrow

Recipient Decoding:The recipient's phone system or caller ID device extracts and decodes the caller ID information.

Arrow

Display: The caller's number or name is displayed on the recipient's screen before or between rings

Non-CLI Routes and Other VoIP Routes

Non-CLI Routes

  • Definition: Non-CLI routes (or “grey routes”) don’t transmit caller ID information, meaning the recipient won’t see the caller’s number.
  • Tradeoffs: These routes are often cheaper than CLI routes but lack transparency. Recipients might ignore or distrust calls made using these routes.
  • Potential Misuse: Non-CLI can be used by spammers or those intentionally concealing their identity.

SIM Routes

  • Definition: SIM routes use physical SIM cards to make calls and also hide caller IDs.
  • Uses: This may be used to mask location, bypass restrictions, or maintain anonymity.
  • Concerns: Similar to non-CLI routes, they raise transparency issues.
