AS8793 THINXX

THINXX belongs to thinxx GmbH, a small telecommunications and IT-infrastructure company based in Rodgau near Offenbach, Germany, running its systems out of a Frankfurt data centre. It sells networks, IT infrastructure and VoIP as packaged services to business customers.

What it's used for

The AS announces roughly 2,000 IPv4 addresses across five prefixes plus one IPv6 prefix. The sampled reverse DNS is entirely first-party operator infrastructure:

• core11.f.ip.thinxx.net — a core router, the f almost certainly for Frankfurt
• ns1.thinxx.net, ns2.thinxx.de — the company's own nameservers

There is no subscriber-pool naming anywhere in the sample: no dsl-, pppoe-, dyn or pool labels. What shows up instead is provider infrastructure and hosted customer systems, which fits a B2B connectivity and hosting shop rather than a consumer ISP.

Notable

• 30 observed BGP neighbours against only ~2,000 addresses. That ratio means the network is far better connected than its address count suggests, which is normal for a Frankfurt-based operator sitting on a well-populated exchange.
• One sampled address in 193.109.222.0/24 resolves to matrix.metalab.de — a hosted third-party service, evidence that the space carries customer workloads.
• The address footprint is a patchwork of small blocks (185.58.0.0/22, 193.168.6.0/23, single /24s) accumulated over time, which is typical for a long-lived small German LIR.
