Summary
Equinix (EMEA)
colo datacenter
A major Equinix Autonomous System for the EMEA region, registered to Equinix (EMEA) Acquisition Enterprises. Equinix is one of the world's largest neutral colocation and interconnection providers; this ASN carries Equinix Connect and related IP services across European datacenters.
What it's used for
- IP connectivity, internet access (Equinix Connect), and interconnection for customers colocated in Equinix's EMEA datacenters.
Notable
- An IP here identifies Equinix as the colo/network host, not the tenant operating the equipment behind it.
- One of many regional Equinix ASNs; sibling to the Iberia block AS15734. This block traces to Equinix's acquisition of TelecityGroup.
Interesting
- Equinix's EMEA scale grew substantially through the 2016 acquisition of TelecityGroup, one of Europe's largest carrier-neutral datacenter operators.

Spamhaus DROP ("Don't Route Or Peer") lists space and networks run by, or hijacked for, spam and cybercrime operations: 431 networks and 1,768 prefixes, as published 2026-10-12. A short, high-confidence list, so a match is worth taking seriously, and absence from it says little on its own.
