Transmit DNS queries, live video streams, and real-time telemetry over native SOCKS5 UDP packets without packet drop or conversion delays.

RAW

Zero Header Rewriting

SOCKS5 operates transparently without inserting `X-Forwarded-For` or custom HTTP headers, guaranteeing clean anonymity and high trust.

SDK

Universal Code Support

Plug SOCKS5 endpoints directly into Python requests, Go net/http, Node.js Playwright, Puppeteer, cURL, or custom C++ sockets.

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about ProxyVoxy SOCKS5 proxies.

A SOCKS5 proxy operates at Layer 5 (Session Layer) of the OSI model, routing any network traffic (TCP, UDP, DNS queries, SMTP, custom protocols) without reading or rewriting header contents. Unlike HTTP proxies that only handle web traffic, SOCKS5 proxies support raw socket connections, making them compatible with video streaming, torrent clients, gaming, and custom bot scrapers.
Absolutely. SOCKS5 proxies integrate natively into Playwright, Puppeteer, Scrapy, and Selenium using standard proxy authentication strings (`socks5://username:password@proxy.proxyvoxy.com:8000`).
We offer both! You can configure SOCKS5 endpoints with per-request automatic IP rotation or select sticky session durations (up to 30 minutes) for session-sensitive tasks.
Yes. All ProxyVoxy SOCKS5 proxies support full UDP data forwarding alongside standard TCP tunnels. This enables low-latency streaming, real-time telemetry, DNS resolution over proxy, and high-concurrency scraping scripts.
ProxyVoxy supports both Username:Password credentials authentication and IP Whitelisting authentication. You can manage authorized IP addresses or create sub-user API tokens in your dashboard.
