Correct, but in much the same way that you can put special hardware in
front of a web server like this:

web browser, https --> port 443 --> hardware --> port 80 --> http server

you could do xmpp like this:

xmpp client, xmpps --> port 5223 --> hardware --> port 5222 --> xmpp server

which I think is what the op was asking about.
