Unclassified AFRINIC NSP
Summary
Angola Cables
transit telecom submarine ict
ANGOLA-CABLES is operated by Angola Cables.
What it's used for
- The address space carries infrastructure for an international telecommunications operator, evidenced by the registrant
ANGOLA CABLES LTDAand the reverse DNS entry254.126.219.102.angolacables.co.ao. - With 9472 IPv4 addresses announced against 2472 observed neighbours, the high neighbour-to-address ratio indicates a transit or wholesale network role rather than a direct access provider.
Notable
- Registrants for the available prefixes consistently identify the holder as
ANGOLA CABLES LTDAorAngola Cables S.A., aligning with the AS handle. - The company rebranded its Brazilian operations as TelCables Brasil in March 2023 to strengthen its local presence in Brazil and Latin America.
- The inventory consists of nine IPv4 prefixes and three IPv6 prefixes, including a large /21 block and several /22 blocks, reflecting a finely subdivided corporate estate.

Reputation
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: 436 networks and 1,771 prefixes, as published 2026-10-13. 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.
