PPS is the autonomous system for Paducah Power System, a municipal utility in Paducah, Kentucky.
What it's used for
- The address space carries fiber internet services, evidenced by reverse DNS records pointing to
ppsfibernet.comand the netnameEPBCP. - With 1792 IPv4 addresses announced across 3 prefixes and 13 observed neighbours, the ratio suggests a local access network providing connectivity to subscribers rather than a transit provider.
Notable
- All registrants for the announced prefixes are listed as Paducah Power System, matching the AS holder.
- The address inventory consists of three IPv4 blocks and one IPv6 prefix, all registered to the same entity.

Internet exchanges
No exchange port on file. Many exchanges publish no participant list, so this is not proof of absence.
Exchange presence is recorded rather than inferred: the directory collected by Packet Clearing House (https://www.pch.net/ixp/data) on 2026-10-18, licensed CC BY-NC-SA 3.0. Transit is inferred from observed BGP paths, never declared by either party.

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: 443 networks and 1,784 prefixes, as published 2026-10-19. 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.
