AS29727 ARCKANET
Unclassified ARIN
Summary
Arckanet
datacenter colocation business
The AS handle ARCKANET is held by Arckanet.
What it's used for
- The address space carries a mix of legacy Cogent Communications blocks and Arckanet-specific allocations, with netnames including
COGENT-AandARCKANET-V4-2020-NET-23-156-208-0-1. - The AS announces 1280 IPv4 addresses across 4 prefixes and 2 IPv6 prefixes, while maintaining only 1 observed neighbour, a ratio that suggests a small-scale access or colocation network rather than a transit provider.
Notable
- Registrants for the largest prefixes are split between Cogent Communications, LLC and Arckanet, indicating the use of both inherited or leased Cogent space and native Arckanet allocations.
- Arckanet operates a datacenter in Yuma, Arizona, offering colocation services for server and network infrastructure.
- The inventory includes three prefixes registered to Cogent Communications and one to Arckanet, reflecting a hybrid address estate.

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 1,779 prefixes, as published 2026-10-24. 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.
