United States of America · AI-generated

satellite aviation business connectivity

The AS handle SATCOM-DIRECT-INC is held by Satcom Direct Inc.

What it's used for

  • The address space carries satellite communications infrastructure, evidenced by netnames such as SD-DATA-CENTER, UK-SATCOM-20060918, SD-TECHOPS-209-151-220-0, and SATCOM-AU.
  • The AS announces 5120 IPv4 addresses across 5 prefixes and maintains 3 observed neighbours, a ratio consistent with a specialized business network rather than a large-scale access or transit provider.
  • Traffic from this AS supports global connectivity solutions for business and general aviation, military, and government sectors, including satellite phone services and in-flight connectivity.

Notable

  • Registrants align with the announcer, including SD Data Center, Satcom Direct International Ltd., Private Customer, and Satcom Direct Australia Pty Ltd..
  • Satcom Direct merged with Gogo, transitioning its operations under the Gogo Aviation brand.
  • The inventory is finely subdivided into five distinct prefixes, reflecting a corporate estate segmented by region and function.

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 1,778 prefixes, as published 2026-10-20. 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.
