Voice Network Query

Optimising the routing of voice calls, messaging, video and other data is easy with Voice Network Query. This service can identify the network of any given mobile phone number before routing, which is especially useful in Mobile Number Portability environments.

The ideal query service for voice and data formats

The Voice Network Query service provides a wide range of value-added network information before routing voice, messaging and/or data to mobile phones. The service identifies invalid, ported or unused numbers, reducing the ongoing cost associated with routing voice calls to these numbers. The service provides the following information for customers:

 

  • MNC (Mobile Network Code).
  • MCC (Mobile Country Code).
  • Modified search algorithm providing detailed information about the mobile phone number, even if the mobile handset is switched off.

With Voice Network Query, you can:

  • Optimize the routing of voice calls.
  • Verify and update existing database.
  • Relay billing and data records to subscriber’s home network operator in real-time.

Key benefits

Improve quality of voice and data routing

Voice Network Query provides real-time network information and can therefore enable customers to route voice and data traffic to the right network. By knowing this network information in advance, customers can avoid incorrect routing due to MNP technical issues, thus enhancing quality and speed. 

 

Room for cost reduction

Voice Network Query has the potential to reduce the cost related to voice and data traffic routed to non-existent, inactive or ported numbers.

 

Avoid extra costs for voice call transfer

Voice Network Query helps alternative carriers such as VOIP providers to avoid the extra costs associated with the transfer of a voice call between operators in an indirect routing environment (without a centralised MNP database), such as in the UK.
