That's just how SIP URIs are supposed to look ;)

Your phone receiving the calls might be able to use additional
fields/headers to display a number/displayname that does not contain
the IP.

Try setting the displayname on the caller side.
More appropriate would be to use P-Asserted-Identity (RFC3325) or
Remote-Party-ID if that gets the job done on your phones.
If you trust your callers you can use SER to copy the userpart (aka
phonenumber in your case) from the From URI into a P-Asserted-Identity.

I hope that helps,
 Hendrik
