Security and data architecture

Understand the standard PBXDom data path before installation: where the collector runs, which phone-system records it reads, what those records contain, and which deployment details require confirmation.

No certification or compliance status is implied on this page.

Standard collector data flow

The exact PBX-side protocol and fields depend on the manufacturer, model, software release, and enabled CDR or SMDR output.

  1. 01

    Phone system

    The existing PBX produces CDR, SMDR, or another supported call-accounting output.

  2. 02

    Local collector

    A PBXDom collector runs on an always-on host that can reach that output. The host depends on the supported setup.

  3. 03

    Hosted reporting

    The collector forwards call records to PBXDom so reports, dashboards, and configured alerts can be produced.

  4. 04

    Authorized users

    Users open the hosted product to search records, view dashboards, and manage reports or alerts.

What the standard workflow handles

PBXDom is documented as a call-record reporting system, not a phone-system replacement or call-recording platform. The record fields available depend on what the PBX emits.

  • Call time, direction, duration, caller or dialed number
  • Extension, department, trunk, gateway, or site identifiers when supplied
  • Call outcome and cause fields supported by that PBX output
  • Calculated report, alert, and call-accounting values

Connection method by platform

These are brand-level summaries from the same source used by the compatibility checker. Final setup still depends on the exact model and release.
