Vert.x implements IO protocol stack for SockJS Javascript library, it is a server. Your javascript code relies on SockJS library to choose proper protocol for communication with server (websockets or XHR or JSONP or SSE fallback), e.g.

Polling transports are used as a fallback for old browsers and hosts behind restrictive proxies.

Vert.x also has a built-in client to other websocket servers. Take a look at the websockets documentation
