Announcing 6X Softswitch: Your Own Whitelabel Voice & SMS Switch

Introducing 6X Softswitch

6X Softswitch is now live: a full Class 4 wholesale voice & SMS switching platform you can rent, whitelabel, and run as your own — either hosted on 6X's infrastructure, or installed on your own server with a single command. If you've ever priced out VOS3000, Sippy, or a raw Asterisk/Kamailio build for your own switch, this is built to be the faster, cheaper, less painful way to get there.

What 6X Softswitch actually gives you

• Your own vendor pool. Connect your own carrier relationships (SIP trunks and SMPP connectors), set your own rates, and route your own way — completely isolated from any other partner's vendors.
• Your own customers, your own pricing. Onboard downstream wholesale customers, set sell rates per destination or per customer, and bill them however you like. You keep 100% of your margin.
• Full whitelabel branding. Your logo, your colors, your own domain, your own support email and live chat widget — your customers never see "6X" unless you want them to.
• Fraud Watch built in. Automatic vendor quality monitoring (ASR/ACD, fake-answer detection) and toll-fraud/SMS-fraud protection for your downstream customers — the same engine protecting every account on 6X, scoped to just your book.
• Real tools, not a bare API. Route testing, CDR search, sell-rate CSV import/export, routing groups, rate groups, sender ID approvals, inbound number management — a working portal from day one, in 8 languages.
• Flat monthly rent, not a percentage skim. You pay one predictable fee for the platform. What you charge your customers and what margin you keep is entirely yours.

Two ways to run it

Hosted — 6X runs the switching engine for you on a dedicated IP and SIP profile, fully isolated from other partners. Nothing to install, live in minutes.

Self-hosted — install the full engine on your own server with one command. Your own hardware, your own network, your own compliance posture — while billing, branding, and the management portal stay centrally hosted and always up to date. Cheaper than the hosted tier, since you're supplying the infrastructure. See 6X Switch Self-Hosted: Installation & Setup Guide for the full walkthrough.

How it compares

Vs. VOS3000 — VOS3000 is a long-established, feature-dense Class 4 switch, widely used across wholesale VoIP, especially in Asia and Africa. It's powerful, but it's also a standalone product: you're buying software, then separately sourcing servers, billing, a customer portal, fraud detection, and ongoing DevOps — and typically working through a reseller/integrator to get it stood up and licensed. 6X Softswitch bundles all of that (rates engine, CDR billing, fraud protection, customer portal, whitelabel branding) into one rented platform with no separate licensing negotiation and no infrastructure to size and maintain yourself.

Vs. Sippy — Sippy (Sippy B2BUA) is a well-regarded, more modern softswitch with a cleaner API and SaaS-style delivery than older Class 4 platforms. It's a strong, capable product. The difference is packaging and ownership economics: Sippy is typically priced per-node/per-feature-module as a standalone platform subscription. 6X Softswitch is one flat rental price with whitelabel branding, a full customer-facing portal, and fraud detection included rather than bolted on as extra modules — and the self-hosted option means you can own the infrastructure outright while still getting managed billing and portal updates.

Vs. building it yourself on Asterisk, FreeSWITCH, Kamailio, or OpenSIPS — open-source and genuinely free to download. But a real Class 4 switch is far more than the SIP proxy: least-cost routing logic, real-time balance/credit enforcement, CDR-accurate billing, fraud detection that actually catches toll fraud before it drains a wallet, a customer-facing portal, SMPP handling for SMS — all of that is work you'd be building and maintaining yourself, indefinitely. 6X Softswitch is that entire stack, already built and already running in production, that you rent or install in one command instead of engineering from scratch.

Vs. traditional carrier-grade switches (Sonus/Ribbon, GENBAND, Cisco-class platforms) — built for large-scale carriers with enterprise procurement cycles, six-figure minimums, and dedicated telecom engineering teams. 6X Softswitch targets the reseller and independent-carrier tier those platforms were never priced for: live in minutes on the hosted tier, or self-hosted with a single install command, no procurement process required.
