Architecture

3CX deployment architecture

3CX can run self-hosted or in the cloud; the design decisions that matter are trunk placement, client connectivity and how remote users traverse the network.

  1. 01 · Trunks & numbers

    SIP trunk providerDID rangesEmergency routing

    Provider templates verified against the account's actual authentication and CLI requirements.

  2. 02 · Network edge

    Firewall rulesSIP tunnel / STUNPublic FQDN + certificate

    3CX firewall checker used as a gate before go-live; tunnelling for clients on restrictive networks.

  3. 03 · 3CX server

    Self-hosted VM or cloud instanceDigital receptionistQueues & call groups

    Sized by simultaneous calls, not user count; recording and reporting enabled per licence tier.

  4. 04 · Clients

    Web clientDesktop appMobile appProvisioned IP phones

    Welcome-email provisioning for users; supported phone models provisioned automatically.

  5. 05 · Integration

    CRM connectorMicrosoft 365 contactsCall reports

    Integrations limited to supported connectors to keep the upgrade path clean.

FAQ

3CX questions we are asked

Self-hosted or cloud-hosted 3CX?
Cloud suits distributed teams and removes local hardware dependency. Self-hosted suits sites with local PSTN gateways, strict data residency, or existing virtualization capacity. Both are supported; we size the choice against your call volume and connectivity.
How many simultaneous calls do we need?
Licensing is by concurrent call, not extension. We derive it from busy-hour call statistics from your existing system rather than guessing from headcount.
Do remote agents need a VPN?
Usually not — the apps use the 3CX tunnel over a single port. VPN is reserved for cases where policy requires it or where deskphones must be reachable remotely.
Can we migrate from an existing PBX?
Yes. Numbers, IVR logic and extension mapping are documented from the current platform, rebuilt in 3CX, tested with a pilot group, then cut over with the old system kept ready for rollback.
