Summary
SDCC OpenNetwork
educational research amateur radio
SDCC-AS-AP is operated by SDCC OpenNetwork, a Japanese educational and research network.
What it's used for
- The address space carries amateur radio digital communications and research traffic, evidenced by the
AMPRNETnetname andsdconw.comreverse DNS entries. - The AS announces 768 IPv4 addresses and 15 IPv6 prefixes, maintaining 21 peering neighbours, a ratio consistent with a specialized research or educational network rather than a large-scale transit provider.
- Traffic consists of data for amateur radio experimentation, digital communications testing, and academic research projects hosted within the Shimane Data Center Club infrastructure.
Notable
- Registrants align with the announcer, including
Amateur Radio Digital Communicationsfor the44.31.25.0/24block andShimane Data Center Club Administratorfor the103.152.178.0/24and103.160.48.0/24blocks. - The inventory includes a US-based prefix (
44.31.25.0/24) alongside Japanese allocations, reflecting the international nature of amateur radio networks and the specific allocation for AMPRNET.

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 2026-10-14, 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: 442 networks and 1,771 prefixes, as published 2026-10-15. 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.
