Summary
Central Arkansas Telephone Cooperative
cooperative rural telecom residential
The AS handle CENARKTEL is held by Central Arkansas Telephone Cooperative, Inc.
What it's used for
- The address space carries rural telecommunications services, evidenced by netnames
CATCI-CGNT-NET-1andCATC-NET-04registered to the cooperative. - The network announces 7168 IPv4 addresses across 3 prefixes with only 1 observed neighbour, a ratio that indicates an access or eyeball network rather than a transit provider.
Notable
- Registrants for the two smaller prefixes align with the announcer, while the largest prefix
38.75.48.0/20is registered to Cogent Communications, LLC under the netnameCOGENT-A, suggesting leased or historically allocated space. - The inventory consists of three distinct IPv4 blocks with no IPv6 prefixes announced, reflecting a traditional IPv4-centric rural deployment.

Classification and threat
Unclassified Not in the curated lists. Most of the ~80,000 allocated ASNs are not.
Spamhaus DROP
Not on ASN-DROP The network as a whole is not listed.
No DROP prefixes None of its announced space is on the DROP prefix list.
Spamhaus DROP ("Don't Route Or Peer") lists space and networks run by, or hijacked for, spam and cybercrime operations: 453 networks and 1,854 prefixes, as published 2026-11-06. A short, high-confidence list, so a match is worth taking seriously, and absence from it says little on its own.
FBI IC3
No IC3 indicators Nothing from the FBI IC3 feed.
IC3 threat data is alpha. Absence of an indicator is not evidence of good behaviour, only of absence from this one feed.
