Summary
JCOM Co., Ltd. (former JCN)
isp legacy
JCN is one of the networks of JCOM Co., Ltd. (J:COM), Japan's largest cable
television and cable-broadband operator. It carries the name of Japan Cablenet
Limited (JCN), the operator J:COM absorbed in 2014.
What it's used for
- Consumer broadband and cable-TV subscriber access on the former JCN footprint, now operated as part of J:COM.
Notable
- This is eyeball address space: several hundred thousand IPv4 addresses handed out to residential cable-internet subscribers, so traffic to it is end users, not servers.
- J:COM took over JCN's shares from KDDI in December 2013 and completed the merger on 1 April 2014; the ASN and its address blocks survived the corporate consolidation under the old handle.
- J:COM runs more than one ASN — this one is specifically the ex-JCN network, not the group's primary AS.
