Hosting RIPE Content
Summary
PathConnect
hosting managed-services germany
PATHCONNECT is operated by PathConnect GmbH.
What it's used for
- The address space carries managed IT infrastructure, evidenced by reverse DNS entries such as
et49-1.c01-defra01.pathconnect.deandnc-225.pathconnect.de, which indicate server and node hostnames within thepathconnect.dedomain. - The AS announces 1280 IPv4 addresses across 4 prefixes and 33 IPv6 prefixes, while maintaining 27 observed neighbours; this ratio of moderate address space to a significant number of peering partners suggests a role focused on hosting and managed services rather than pure transit or residential access.
- Traffic from this AS consists of web and API endpoints, managed application workloads, and backend services for PathConnect's open-source IT solutions, which are hosted and managed in Germany.
Notable
- All RDAP registrants for the announced prefixes are listed as PathConnect GmbH, with netnames including
DE-PATHCONNECT-20090529,PATHCONNECT,DE-PATHCONNECT-20200103, andDE-PATHCONNECT-20230206, confirming consistent ownership. - The inventory is subdivided into four distinct IPv4 blocks and a large, contiguous IPv6 allocation under
2a12:79c0::/40, reflecting a structured corporate estate for its hosting infrastructure.

Classification and threat
Hosting Datacenter or cloud provider. Addresses are servers, not people.
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: 440 networks and 1,773 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.
