Summary
NTT (Global IP Network)
tier-1 transit backbone
NTT's Global IP Network (NTT-DATA-2914) — a major Tier 1 backbone operated by NTT, one of the most widely connected transit networks.
What it's used for
- Global IP transit and wholesale connectivity across the Americas, Europe, and Asia, historically strong on trans-Pacific routes.
- Backbone service to ISPs, content providers, and enterprises.
Notable
- A Tier 1 network (reaches the whole internet via peering, buys no transit), and a long-standing top-ranked global backbone.
- Grew substantially from NTT's 2000 acquisition of the US carrier Verio, which gave it a large international IP-services footprint.
Interesting
- NTT's rDNS PoP naming makes its routers easy landmarks for tracing a path across the Pacific.

Spamhaus DROP ("Don't Route Or Peer") lists space and networks run by, or hijacked for, spam and cybercrime operations: 431 networks and 1,775 prefixes, as published 2026-10-11. A short, high-confidence list, so a match is worth taking seriously, and absence from it says little on its own.
